The company employees are all snowboarders that ride (although not that well) as much as possible.  StepChild prides itself on being different and passionately puts the riding experience ahead of the fashion bullshit that seams to be polluting snowboarding the most these days. The main focus on StepChild is product development and professional snowboarding while staying true and honest to the riders, the lifestyle and the sport.  Developing quality snowboards that stand out from the rest and a team and staff that is purely dedicated to snowboarding, individualism and the progression of the sport

“From our first catalog that we photocopied at Kinko’s to the 120 page Blunter Magazine we just put together I’m stoked to say that we are still doing whatever we want to-not letting bitchy team managers or corporate flakes dictate to us what snowboarding is. I’ve been involved in almost every aspect of snowboarding since 1985. I was one of the “old dogs” that learned to ride on a golf course until the mountain allowed us access. I know what its like to be the hungry and broke am rider scrounging for gear and I also know what its like to be a high paid drunken pro that sucks shit.  Now I just want StepChild to help develop great products while supporting professional and amateur riders so that they can continue to progress our sport. We are now coming up on being in business for 10 years. As much of a struggle as it has been we must be doing something right!?”  - Sean Johnson – StepChild founder and owner.

While many companies claim “rider driven” we actually live it. For us its not some cheesy marketing tag line-its who we really are.
