Snowboarding Boston With Mr. Fun: ETT
  • 9 years ago
ETT Season 5, episode 7: This episode of ETT is all about those throwback vibes. Dave Lee and the Signal Snowboards crew team up with longtime skateboard designer Paul Schmitt to create the ultimate backyard, backhill, neighborhood golf course fun board—we’re calling it Mr. Fun. Dave finds legendary skateboarder Christian Hosoi’s pro model shape in Professor Schmitt’s workshop, which serves as the foundation for this 7-ply deck. Hosoi himself stops by the factory to add some crucial design input to the shape (wow!). Mr. Fun gets a custom Hosoi grip tape job and then it’s off to the streets of Boston where historic amounts of snow have fallen to see if Mr. Fun delivers on the promise of fun. See this simple board take on snowy streets, parks and everyday urban features with no lift ticket (and no bindings) required. Does this look like fun to you? Let us know in the comments below!
