Justin Clark, also known as J Stone in the greater Salt Lake snowboarding community, is the Snowboard Development Engineer at K2. He’s also a personal friend of our host Nils, which makes him the perfect candidate for us to pick his brain about snowboard tech. Justin is a University of Utah engineering graduate who grew up in Salt Lake City and he truly lives and breathes the snowboarding industry.
In this episode, Nils and Justin dive into the process of becoming a snowboard designer. The pair talk about the snowboard culture in Salt Lake City and nerd out over some of K2’s top-selling snowboard models, including the Alchemist. You don’t want to miss this one!
