Behind the Product
All-Mountain Magic Elevated with Limited Edition Graphics
We worked with the legendary Selema Masekela to develop this new directional shape. Its surf-inspired design is tailored for good turns in any terrain. A large size range offering makes it accessible to more riders. Original artwork by fine artist Chase Hall give this board limited edition status.
ABOUT THE GRAPHIC: Chase Hall is a painter based in New York, NY. His work focuses on exploring the complexities of biracial identity, often portraying Black faces in unfamiliar places. Chase's journey into art was influenced by his love for snowboard graphics in the late 90s and early 2000s. Selema Masekela identified Chase as the only artist he wanted to work with on the graphics for the Alekesam. The artwork is from a painting titled "Portrait of a Cowboy" referencing the histories of Black cowboys and American history. Chase announced the collaboration along with the message, "To Black adventurism and endless nuance."
