Up For Grabs: Win Austin Smith's Snowboard Gear
CONTEST CLOSEDPhoto: Mike Yoshida
Austin Smith doesn’t work hard when he snowboards, but don’t get it twisted—his lack of effort is solely attributable to natural talent, not his work ethic. After a stellar freshman debut, Austin garnered himself more recognition in one winter than many established pros do in their entire career, including this publication’s Rookie of the Year title; and Mr. Smith’s juggernaut shows no signs of halting any time soon. From rails to park to backcountry booters, Austin can handle it all with effortless style, powerful maneuvers, and an ear-to-ear grin on his mug. This is your chance to get into Austin’s head-to-toe kit, so URL yourself over to snowboardermag.com and enter to win his setup, then pick up a copy of Mack Dawg People’s second release, as we’re quite sure that young Austin will do your new threads justice.
