The Volcom Snowboarding Catalogue is sitting on my desk and it really is making me want to book a snowboarding Holiday.

The opening shot of Gigi Ruf and team smashing a powder field is enough reason to get the credit card out.

Volcom is also pleased to annouce that this year it has successfully acquired a patent for its Zip-Tech technology. (Again one of these moments where I am thinking why did I not come up with that its so simple and works so well). This interface lets you easily join your pants to your jacket with no gaps like on other systems, so you literally get no, none, nientie, nothing down your back. It also helps prevent ice burn that you can get when riding outback.

What Volcom and the team Say

The team has been rocking it since 2004 so we thought we would ask them what they think about Zip-Tech?”Just zip it, nothing else compares. If you like snow down your pants zip-tech is not for you. Zip it and enjoy snowboarding. I have used zip-tech for years and would not want to use anything else. If comfort is important, zip it.” -Wille Yli- Luoma “Riding in the NW zip tech is a must, or anywhere for that matter. I feel for people not rockin Volcom gear.” -Mark Landvik “My day hasn’t ended with a cold wet behind in years! I rode the chair once with Wooly and out of the blue he said, ‘Seth, are you zipped in?’ I turned to him promptly and said, ‘Wooly, I always zip in.’ he replied with, ‘good, me too’ then we both laughed.” – Seth Huot “Zip tech is the biggest break through in outerwear function since waterproofing. It creates a seamless barrier against the harsh elements and retains heat keeping you warmer and drier. I can’t imagine riding without it.” -Bryan Iguchi “Ziptech is the sickest feature… connect your jacket and pants sealing out the weather and keeping in the warmth! Amazing!” -Bjorn Leines Volcom prides it self in being an innovator in technical and forward thinking design, and now our US patent number 7,404,214 makes it official.
