Seattle, WA Saturday, January 5, 2008 Board sports icons Andy Howell, Steve Caballero and Squindo presented a unique gallery at evo seattle saturday night. The gallery brought together skiing and skate/surf/snow culture using Rossignol Skis as the canvas.

The result is a group of seven limited edition twin tips. The project is being called Seven Artistic Sins. The SAS collection is canvassed with artistic interpretations of the seven sins as imagined by iconic board sport legends Andy Howell, Steve Caballero, Caia Koopman, Mr. Jago, Andrew Pommier, Will Barras and Squindo whose work has covered skateboards, snowboards, surf boards and album covers for much of the last decade.

?Our goal was simple We wanted to give these artists the recognition they deserve, collectively, they have basically created the visual identity for board culture and they have been behind the scenes for far too long,? said Jason Newell, Director, Sports Marketing & Promotions for Rossignol . ? These artists have shaped the evolution of our sports and created a deep emotional connection with our equipment.?

Evo was packed with fans of the artists are well as pros and friends. Fueled by sweet beats from Matt the Alien along gourmet food and stiff drinks, break-dance battling ensued along with talks of an impending snow dump the following day. When you bring music, artists, and serious skiers together, what else could be expected but a great launch for some killer looking skis!

The Seven Artistic Sins collection will be formally introduced to the global market at the January 2008?s SIA show in Las Vegas, NV to the industry and an ultra limited pre-release of the skis will be available at evogear.com to lucky collectors right now.
