Rider Bio

meet zach johnston a super-upbeat, always stoked down to earth snowboarder, currently based out of Breckenridge, CO. Zach grew up riding the "mountains" of Michigan and Ohio. He started shredding seriously around the age of 15 with friends from his high school snowboard team which he would later become the prez of. I remember Zach riding in the car talking about tricks he wanted to do that were somewhat, off of most peoples radar in the area. The thing about Zach is that he is always trying to learn the next trick, be the best and most of all have the most fun possible on top of a snowboard. Zach has always been a super fun kid to ride with because he is always stoked on whats going down around him, and he is usually killing it himself, so that makes it fun for his friends to watch. Zach is currently riding for Mervin Mfg. and Quiksilver and getting flow help from CandyGrind, Celsius Boots,Purl Wax and Monocera. With the addition of the 1080 and his invented rail trick, "the magician" Zach Johnston is definetly some one to watch out for and if your looking for someone to hook up thats going to represent your company in an extremely positive manner then this is your kid.

double cork 10s

so this trick is so new that there are no trick tips, there are only a hand full of videos of kids landing it and learning it is proving to be a bitch. i need to go cruise to the foam pit at woodward!!!
the weather says it feels like 1 degrees at keystone today, going out to get warmed up on key jumps for the PS this weekend. Greg Oakley-- you should let me try out that RockerCamber for the weekend shoot!

slideshow of breck PS feb.05.10

silverton

holy shit, Silverton, Colarado is a ridiculous place to be. While down there with the 611 crew we watched some thing on one of the main streets where a horse pulls a skier over jumps and the skier grabs rings, i dunno it was strange but pretty cool to watch and throw back a few beers haha. hit some bmx stuff in the front yard and then killed some pow the next day, 70 inches of snow doesnt suck at all.

breckenridge photoshoot

hey i had a shoot on friday feb. 5th. got a handfull of good looking photos, check the slide show out to see what went down!
