The genuinely rad folks at We Are Local have a Pop Up shop on Main Street for the next few weeks. They’ve curated a stellar assortment of products from local merchants. It’s like the highlight reel of cool pieces from all the independent shops around the town. Too many shops to list but our friends at Lut Boutique mentioned we should go and meet them.
Dean and Daniela are amazing folks! Go see them and their quality wares. Oh, and they have the styles of our Family Edition!
Like the new member of the family, they are the Newmads
I’m officially an “Oldmad”. It’s determined by birth year on my team, the Nomads. We won the World Championship this year in Japan. This marked the official conclusion of over two decades of Ultimate but we look forward to decades more of the brotherhood of Nomads.
As you may have guessed the “Nomad” is a nod to my brothers. We’ve updated our aviator frame and in another nod to my brothers, those like myself who have joined the team years into our existence, we have called them the “Newmad”, since they are the new addition to the brotherhood.
Are you HAPPY?!?!?! NO MAD!!!!
We made the front page of www.vancouverisawesome.com today. A quick interview about Corvus Fittings by Jessic McIlroy who was also a big part of EcoFashion Week (that we attended last week). Thanks Jess! No back to getting our new catalogue done!
The full story live here.
Didn’t catch a thing but standing hanging out in the ocean waving a long wand around is it’s own reward
There’s a mansion on the hill!
Corvus Fittings was conceived while spending many days touring around the backcountry so we think it’s more than fitting (oh, bad pun) that we should move our headquarters there. While on a recent hike we think we’ve found an ideal new office. Tough commute but darn worth it.
…let me count the ways: long days, heat waves, skinny dips, cold beers, good friends…ahhhhhhh.
We’ve been savoring the days and enjoying plenty of product testing on rivers, lakes and oceans. We’ve also been working on some new styles, colours and lenses. We’ve been listening so more polarized lenses and new stains to our frames.
More on this soon but we’re planning new stuff for late September. Until then, keep enjoying all that the season has to offer!
I think we are going to have to use this for something in the near future. Is it child labour to hire this 6 year old?
I guess he prefers the feather vertical. We will have to trust the artist’s instincts
We’re doing some heavy product testing here at Sunset Beach North Carolina.We’ve been recklessly swimming and surfing each day with our shades on. It’s kind of like when you drop the frisbee, you have to look around in the breaking waves but then there they are sitting on the surface. I don’t recommend full on surfing unless you don’t wipe out very often. I got pitched over the falls and didn’t do a good job of locating my customized pair of Nomads.
I guess we could also call it a ‘vacation’ but lots of serious biz going on simultaneously.
Hey Sunset Beach, if you found a Vanilla pair of Bamboo aviators that have “are you happy?…NO MAD!!!” written on the side, maybe I can swap you for a brand new pair!
Also, big props to the namesake of the model, my Victoria Nomads Frisbee Club that is representing Canada at the Worlds Ultimate Championships in Japan www.wugc2012.org
We were swamped! Our first public launch drew a huge crowd all day and so many new ‘Founders’ buying pairs of Corvus. When things were calmer I tried to get some video of the crowd and comments, here’s a collection.
There’s even a celebrity in here (seriously, from a crazy successful web comedy).
Come visit us on Main street this sunday!!! The whole line up will be out and we’ll even be having some stellar Car Free Sales!
We’ll be chilling on our favorite Mt. Pleasant strip as part of Car Free Day Main Street. They said our spot will be on the West side between 17th and 18th (see map below).
POP!!!
