Ambassadors

The folks that make Type II fun look easy. Whether they are bootpacking at 13,000 feet, dodging rocks on descents or stacking vert before most of us finish our coffee, our athlete ambassadors are the heartbeat of the Strafe community. They help us build better gear by testing in all conditions all over – and then some. Expect them to be fast, slightly sunburnt, and probably out of cell service.

Creatives Behind the Lens

It takes nothing short of talent to keep up with the above go-getter adventurers.
We couldn't capture or tell the stories we do without these strong creatives. The ones capturing the golden light, deep turns, and chaos that somehow looks picture perfect every time. These photographers and videographers don't just document the moment, they make the moment feel alive.
