Skunkworx ↠ X?

The slang term, "skunkworks" originates from a highly secretive and innovative project developed by Lockheed Martin, an aerospace company, during World War II. It was a small, independent team formed to work on advanced and unconventional aircraft designs. The projects conducted by Skunkworks, such as the iconic Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird, pushed the boundaries of technological advancements in aviation. Over time, the term "skunkworks" has come to represent any secretive and autonomous team that focuses on breakthrough innovation and unconventional problem-solving.

Moonchild's Skunkworx sub-brand was created as a platform for pushing the boundaries of snowboard design beyond traditional and mass-market shapes, all with the goal of enhancing the riding experience. Over the years, our vision has evolved to focus on hybrid snowboards that seamlessly transition between powsurfing and snowboarding, making powsurfing more accessible than ever before.

Similarly, as a testament to our mission of making powsurfing more popular and accessible, our snowboards remain unbranded, featuring only the iconic 'X' symbol. By embracing this approach, we emphasize unity over rivalry, striving to create a better powsurfing experience for all riders, no matter which brand they prefer

If you’ve ever tried powsurfing, you know it brings out the most magical feelings—much like the excitement you felt when you first started snowboarding. Our goal is to develop powsurfing equipment that enhances the approach, supports the transition to snowboarding when needed, and captures the true essence of powsurfing. We believe that once people try it, they’ll be hooked for life.
