Hi all,
Since i am a carver and the fact that there are no good shops in Holland to buy alpine boards and related stuff, made me decide to set up a online boardshop to accomodate the Dutch carvers and to keep our sport alive. Besides buying stuff in the shop, i will also provide you with information on several topics.
Maybe even selling EC-boards (looking at J&P) in Holland? Who knows
Only two more weeks and i will go to Tignes to finally try the EC-technique for real (with a Speedster RS and Conshox plate). I will definitely bring my camera and send the result to extremecarving.com!
Well all, have a great X-mas and a good carving year in 2003!
Arjan

Good Idea!
Some advice (possibly even useful) from a fellow dutchie:
-Contact Bomber to see whether you can sell their bindings
-Try to set up a dutch carving community of some sort
-Contact Ripstar snowboard school in Kaprun (Sjoerd Remmelink, brother of Thedo, one of the few places where they organize carving courses).

Hi Nils,
I have been in sales for over 4 year and am currently marketing manager with a Dutch Internet Service Provider. Furthermore, my partner is a specialist in building websites and online shops. Together we should be able to launch this project.
If you get to speak to J&P.....i am interested in selling the ec-baords in Holland and would like to talk to them about this (if they are interested in making money of course

)
Ciao,
Arjan
