About Shred Summit
The world’s only 100% public-voted snowboard platform. No sponsorships. No brand deals. No bullshit. Just 210,000+ real rider votes ranking the best boards, boots, bindings, travel destinations, and snow events. Trusted by 50,000+ riders worldwide who refuse to be sold to.
What the Hell is Shred Summit?
We’re the only 100% rider-voted, zero-sponsor snowboard platform on Earth. No paid reviews. No brand bribes. No “best board” lists written by marketing interns who’ve never strapped in. Just real riders telling the truth — every single day.
Why We Exist (The Rant)
The snowboard industry got hijacked. Magazines push whatever pays them. Influencers shill whatever gets sent free. Reddit threads get astroturfed by brand reps. Review sites rank gear based on affiliate commissions, not performance. We got sick of the lies.
Shred Summit is the rider rebellion — built by riders, run by riders, funded by riders. We don’t take a penny from brands. We don’t run ads. We survive on community support and raffles that give YOU a chance to win gear, not brands a chance to buy influence.

Who Runs This Thing?
Started by three burnt-out riders from Northern England who got tired of buying overhyped gear based on sponsored reviews. Grew into a global movement of 50,000+ riders who demand honesty in an industry built on marketing budgets.
No corporate HQ. No VC funding. No board of directors. Just a team of volunteer moderators from UK, USA, Canada, France, Austria, Japan, and New Zealand who verify votes, aggregate data, and keep the platform bias-free.
