Read all about what's happening at Alien.
Hey all,
I'm sad to inform that I did not have any boards produced for this season (2007/2008).
The reason why this happened is that Alien is a very small brand, and the factory we were using in Europe was demanding to big minimum quantities. And it was just impossible to make as many snowboards as their minumun was. So I was forced to go without boards for this winter.
For the future I'm looking for a place to produce the Alien Snowboards, it's just very hard to find a place who are willing to produce small quantities. The place I'm looking for doesn't matter how big or small it is, as long as they do quality stuff. Even someone making their own snowboards in their garage might be a place. That's how it used to be in the begining of snowboarding, people making their boards and not worrying about minimum quantities. If anyone is making their own boards or know someone doing it, please send an email about it to : jari@aliensnoboards.com.
To keep Alien Snowboards alive, I designed some hoodies, custom made special hoodies. Will post some pictures and more info very soon.
Thank you to all our fans and friends out there for your support.

Hey, I'm so stoked about our girl teamrider Anni Kuortti getting a great photo published in the finnish snowboarding magazine called "Slammer". Photo taken by Joona Mörsky and published in Slammer, the finnish snowboarding magazine. The photo is in their photo-issue for 2007 that just came out (magazine number 3/2007).

Well finally home from the roadtrip. The roadtrip was a blast, even though we would have wanted more snow. We even managed to build a backcountry kicker, a small one, but it was fun. The teamriders rocked all the time, they killed everything. There is not to much stuff to write about because of the snow-situation in europe. We meet a lot of cool people at Mayrhofen. Fenky, the dude that runs the coolest snowboard shop there, The Seeker.Here are some more pics from the trip. there's never enough gadgets  Jalle (teamerider) having a nice comfortable sleep in the car.... Wow... where did the road go... More wierd stuff on the road Going up towards the glacier Hintertux Me and my friend mikko cheking out some lines, I'm holding an Alien prototype for 07/08  My friend Kimmo testing out a lip with a frontflip Jalle lost and had to be the guineapig for our small kicker Jalle hits the kicker again
More stuff later, Jari the Alien dude

Hey everyone, After a loooooong drive we finally arrived a day early --> 1 more riding day We had kinda bad weather the first riding day, some good runs... but finally the second day, powder, sun... what more can we ask. The first ones are from a mellow cruising run, the last one is from the top of our best run of the day. Jalle (teamrider) Hanne (teamrider) me the secret alien dude me, at the top.
Today (the third day), was a fun day, no sun but it was dumping snow, so we where just jibbing around on the hill. Now we are waiting for the weather to clear up so that we can get some more powder shots.

Hey everyone, The winter here in Finland have been soooooo bad this year. So we decided to take the alien-mobil and make a roadtrip to Austria for a hope of some snow. Two of our team riders will join us. Will post some pics and videoclips from the roadtrip as it begins. Most of the time we are going to ride around Mayrhofen, we are going to be there from Jan. 25 - Feb. 2. If you spot us just feel free to join and ride with us for a day....
