Tamo has been a Kindred team rider since 2014. He uses his love of snowboarding and splitboarding to spark bigger conversations. He spends his life learning, exploring and advocating for social justice via film making, youth empowerment and activism. He shreds the gnar, but more importantly he walks the talk.

Niki is a snowboarder, adventurer, photographer, and vanlifer focused on living life to the fullest. She calls Kicking Horse Resort her home mountain. We first caught wind of Niki when her employer contacted us. They wanted us to build a high-performance custom snowboard for a special employee who would be spending her winter season competing in as many of the Freeride Qualifying competitions as she could. When Niki used that first board to qualify and compete for Canada in the 2019 Freeride World Tour we knew that we wanted to continue to support her journey. This woman throws down!

Pat is a staple in our local snowboard community. Whether he is making tracks up Forbidden Plateau, coaching with his JumpCamp program for local youth, or collecting donated boards to get them in the hands of some up and coming shredders, you are bound to find a big smile on this guy's face!

Ty is the inaugural Team Kindred rider. He has been with us since 2014, but Evan and Ty's friendship reaches back decades. They grew up riding and working at Calgary Olympic Park together, and moved out to Vancouver Island after highschool to chase deep snow. Ty has tested many of our makes and models over the years including our Cumberland Gap splitboard and Swallowtail pow boards while working with K3 cat skiing in Revelstoke. More recently we have been helping Ty narrow down a new quiver as he navigates his journey as a bilateral amputee snowboarder. Ty will be training with the Canadian Para Snowboard Team this coming winter, and we are beyond stoked for him! If you enjoy adrenaline-fueled content, follow Ty on Instagram @tyturner14

Andrew grew up in Black Creek, BC (recognize the name?) and learned to ride at Mount Washington. Now he shreds mostly Red Mountain or the Rossland, BC backcountry. He is an elementary school teacher by day, and a shredder by pow day and weekend. He likes big drops, slashes and really all aspects of snowboarding from park to groomers to backcountry pow laps.
