Rocky Tales

12/23/2025

There are so many reasons to love our snowy little snowboard book 📖 🌨️

It’s mountain-made, inspired by real days on snow and written by a snowboard coach mama raising a tiny rider of her own.

It’s Canadian-designed, rooted in the culture, landscapes, and winter rhythm of the Canadian Rockies.

It features authentic, original, innovative 2.5D artwork that brings the mountains to life in a way kids haven’t seen before.

It’s created for both kids and parents — simple and fun for little readers, meaningful and cozy for storytime read-alouds.

It’s available in two formats (0–3 board book and 3–8 paperback), so it grows with your family.

And most importantly, it celebrates confidence, courage, imagination, and the joy of learning something new — on and off the slopes.

Rok’n Crew Snowboards is for little shredders, future shredders, and families who live outside, dream big, and love winter 💟

This is why we do it. Some books get read once. Some get requested again… and again.

Hearing that a child wants to read a book again and again is everything to us. That’s the magic we hoped to create when we set out to make a snowy story inspired by life on the slopes, family time, and growing up in the great Canadian outdoors.

Thank you to every family inviting Rok’n Crew Snowboards into your storytime. More mountain tales are on the way 🤍

The only book review that really matters to us. And can you guess why??

Meet Sylas — our the OG baby snowboarder that this book is based on. And he’s now declared this his new bedtime buddy 🥹 We’ll be honest in saying that no there’s no review that we could ever get that could hit us like this. When the main character says he’s sleeping with the book… you know you’ve done something right 🤯

“Rok’n Crew Snowboards” is built for snowboard families who want something unique, Canadian-made, and insanely fun to read.

This isn’t your average kids’ book. Our 2.5D artwork is 100% original, created right here in Canada, and it jumps off the page in a way most children’s books just… don’t. We’re pretty sure we’re the only ones using this innovative art technique for kids books and we’re lit up about it 🔥

Two formats for real-life parents:
💥 Board Book (survives toddlers)
💥 Paperback (perfect for ages 3–8)

Snowboard-loving parents… this is your Christmas gifting lay-up 🎁🏂

👉 Shop now and slide into the holidays ready to stoke the next generation.

The real struggle will be trying to pick just one favourite character 🩵💜💛🩷💚

Our little dude definitely has his fave, but he could be a little biased considering this entire book series was inspired by him 🥹

One of the unexpected, best parts of this journey for us so far is hearing back from parents on which character is their kids favourite!

Rok’n Crew Snowboards is packed with vibrant, inclusive woodland creatures, magical moments, and original 2.5D art created right here in Alberta, Canada. It’s a full-on powder day storytelling adventure that celebrates our unique Rocky Mountain culture❄️🇨🇦

👉 Grab your copy today and meet the Crew!

Thanks for the shot 📸 🙏🏻
