Come see the Republics at SIA in the ECOsource display!

We were stoked to be included in this years display along side a bunch of other great products that are taking the snowsports industry into a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. Now back to the craps table....

The January high pressure system finally moved off and the snow started falling. Where else would you want to be than the Wasatch! Waist deep and nuking for two days straight...perfect conditions for doing some DOKA testing!

Thanks to Justin and Porter for showing us their secret stashes out at Snowbird and the Mountain Hardware crew and the Bogan's for a superfun day at Solitude.

In 2007, Arc Wood & Timbers partnered with Entropy Sports to produce a unique wood ski core. The logs that were utilized for the Entropy Ski Cores were sourced from a decommissioned floating logger’s camp on a lake in Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The camp was built in the early 1950’s and deployed to harvest large stands of coastal forest trees. Since water logging was banned to protect community watersheds and biodiversity, the floating logger’s camp was recently decommissioned. The original logs used to support the floating camp are 52’’ – 56’’ in diameter and 90’ in length. The density of grain is very tight, thus producing beautiful Clear Vertical Grain stock. The logs have been well preserved in cold fresh water, awaiting a new life with Entropy.

Arc Wood & Timbers provides custom milled specialty wood that is sourced from reclaimed structures and salvaged logs. Our wood comes from tight grained, sustainably harvested logs or vintage structures, dating 200 – 700 years old. The remarkable beauty of this wood is like nothing else in this world. We use forest friendly extrication methods to remove the “Blown Down”, or “Dead Standing” trees without damaging the natural landscape, thus preserving the natural habitat and reducing the carbon footprint by allowing new seedlings to flourish.

Years in the making, from the lab to the mountains, through many prototypes, waist deep blower days to bullet proof hard pack...this is our journey.

Welcome to the Entropy Snow blog where we will update you on all of our snow products, the stories behind their creation, and best of all their adventures on the mountain. For Winter '09 we are introducing a product line that covers the spectrum of conditions you'll encounter from the Rockies to the Sierras. We feel these skis not only deliver on our promise of performance equipment, but take the crucial next step of having a lower impact on our fragile environment. Join us as we pledge to move forward on a path of environmental sustainability while delivering a product that will rip on the mountain.
