Tory Bland
When you mention the name Tory Bland, you think of Mt. Baker. In the shred world those word do not come lightly, and tend to be followed by names like Kelly, Cummins, and Lynn. He has been a patroller there since you first saw a pair of Salomon 1080's. He was charging half pipe's on 205's skis before anyone was landing backwards. While Frazier and Cummings we're pushing the sport at Hood, Tory was ripping with Robbie Cappel, and partying with Ranquet at the Chandelier, pushing himself and in a lot of ways the perception of skiing as an action sport in a snowboard dominated scene. Tory is out there charging hard and looking for the best snow, or waves while helping develop the best products for brands like Bern and Lib-Tech, we are proud to have him do so.
