15/08/2008 3degrees fundraiser
We're angry at what we're all doing to the planet (hello China). But instead of dwelling on it, we're doing something. 3degrees is launching with a fundraiser at Falls Creek Australia, where we're aiming to raise $1000 and sink 33.33 tonnes of carbon. We're running a green theme, so best green costume = prize. There's a gold coin donation on entry which gets you entry into the door prizes, or you can pay $5 on entry for a 3degrees wristband and get entry to the board raffle ($5 raffle ticket, or 3 for $10).

Everyone's favourite Tom, DJ Thomas the Terror (Pollard) is going to cut some wax and we're going to cut some sick dance manouevres. We'll have cheap drinks and lots of rad stuff including an apres rail jam/drinkies from 4-6PM outside Silverski. So you better check it out at here >.

Please note if you're not at the fundraiser, you'll not be eligible for the board.

05/08/2008 Greening Australia
We have decided to support Greening Australia through their carbon abatement program - Breathe Easy. This means our financial support will be directed into critically important environmental projects. Furthermore, we even get to volunteer and get our hands dirty, so we stay tuned for a Heresy "Get Hands Dirty Day" to coincide with a spring volunteer day run by GA.

29/07/2008 Anti-whaling update
So far, we have raised just over $500 for Sea Shepherd in their fight against whaling - this is an awesome effort by everyone who has supported this initiative. We're not resting there though; we want to raise more - so please keep the support up.

30/06/2008 Anti-whaling merch, Saving snowboarding
So, now we've sacked (not really, but we sure put the scare into them) our sales guys for underestimating the response to the anti-whaling tee, we've got new merch coming in this Friday July 4. We've expanded our range to include hooded jumpers (in black and kelly green), girls singlets (in black) and a new tee style for girls; a baby rib, more form hugging tee with a lower neck line and cap sleeves. Photos will be on the store Friday July 4.

And now; 3degrees. Go check our 3degrees page for more information on how we're helping to save snowboarding (and skiing).

15/06/2008 Anti-whaling tees
Seems as though the boffins in our marketing deptartment underestimated the response to the anti-whaling tees. We are completely sold out in the space of one week. We have ordered new supplies including an expansion of the girls range, and unisex hooded jumpers. So far we have raised around $450 for Sea Shepherd; thank you to everyone who has supported this effort so far. Stay tuned for more news, or join the Heresy Snowboarding
Facebook Group or our mailing list to receive further updates.

31/05/2008 New NSW Rep, new stock, whaling tees
We have a new NSW AU rep, his name is Josh and he's pretty rad. Josh climbs mountains then looks at the mountain and goes "what, is that it?". Josh also takes super good photos and shreds the snow. We like Josh; he has a rad outlook on life. That's why he's onboard - and he loves Heresy. So for all stock enquiries in NSW, particularly Sydney and Jindabyne, get Josh on joshc - at - heresysnowboarding.com.

Yes, our anti-whaling tees are nearly done; we should have them June 6, and will be taking them to Hotham where we will be spending the weekend cataloguing all the new stock and getting it on the store - lucky there is no snow. You will have to get in fast as these are selling quickly. Remember profits are going to Sea Shepherd.

As well as the anti-whaling tees, we have full production quantities of all the standard range coming in; so the Pattern Logo, Guild Logo (shield), Heart on Sleeve, Mid Logo, Organic, Heresy Logotype gear is all coming in on all stock guys and girls. We have additionally had a lot of girls baby rib singlets done and have a special limited edition 2008 Guild of Powder Assassins print. This will be a big metallic shield printed on black hoods and tees in gold and on white tees in silver. This will be strictly limited in numbers.

18/05/2008 Help save whales
We've never been just about making money. We care. We want to make a difference. Whaling must stop. We will be donating all profits from these tees to Sea Shepherd. Go to our
blog or to our Facebook page to read more about why we're doing this and when the tees will be available (around 3 weeks).

09/05/2008 New stock, pre-season sale
We have a load of new gear (new beanies, scarves, hoods, tees, and thermals) scoming in, as well as our boards, and so we're having a pre-season sale. We've started the sale on our

If you would love to be involved with a snowboard company that cares about the environment (and means it), cares about our fellow humans and really, really cares about snowboarding, then please drop us a line.

15/12/2007 New website and logo launched
Here it is. The fruit of some very hard (and generous work) and brainstorming. Our new logo, and website. Have a look at the logo and think about Heresy and what we do, and why we do it. We think the new image is reflective of this

Some incredible work and thinking has gone into this by Jason and his crew at Messy; thanks Jase.

Stay tuned for more and more content as more people come on board to help, and take Heresy where we truly want it to go.

Eventually, and soon, our store will be fully integrated into the site (for now, the store link links back to the current store) so you can check the latest catalogue and if you want to get anything, you can buy it then and there without going to a separate store.

Additionally, we will finally have the means to bring our fellow riders into the company the way we always wanted. This means a php forum where you can submit designs for consideration for inclusion in our range, enter design competitions that we will run, give us feedback on areas you think we can improve or on things you'd like to see us do. This will help us truly become a company by snowboarders, for snowboarders.
