History
[edit]Snowboarder began life as a quarterly supplement to Surfer in late 1987, capitalising on the rapid growth of snowboarding. The first stand-alone buyer’s-guide issue appeared in September 1989, and by 1990 the title had adopted a regular five-issue annual schedule.[2]

[edit]On 13 December 2022 The Arena Group announced a US$28.5 million deal to acquire the digital assets of Snowboarder, Surfer, Powder and several other niche titles.[3][4]
In 2014 the editorial team released The Snowboarder Movie: Foreword, the magazine’s first full-length feature in more than a decade.[5]
