Discover the stoked history of Elevated Surf Craft and the journey behind the first snowboard ever crafted by founder Aaron Lebowitz. From design inspirations to experimentations to innovations— the start of Elevated started with a Soulmotion.
When Ricardo Cotto, a veteran snowboarder and passionate turn-seeker, first encountered Elevated Surf Craft, he knew he had found something extraordinary. A lifelong snowboarder who started his journey on a Snurfer in 1988, Ricardo’s connection to the slopes is undeniable. Today, as an Elevated Surf Craft rider and ambassador, he brings his decades of experience and love for the sport to every turn he carves.
It’s amazing how stoke drives innovation. For years, we chased perfect rides across endless landscapes, tweaking boards and fine-tuning our gear, all in the quest to keep that fire burning. I can still remember the moments that fueled our journey at Elevated Surf Craft—those little moments of pure connection between rider, board, and mountain.
Over the next season the design and graphic continued to evolve, with no f*%ks given to the naysayers as we couldnt hear them from so deep in the powder fields of the secret testing grounds deep in the SouthWest corner of Lost Trail’s Chair 4 low angle zone.
