The reluctant entrepreneur from Silicon Valley

That Special Moment

Imagine yourself being so disillusioned by the industry from your favorite sport about the lack of innovation that you decide to think what you can do to improve the situation and provide a new answer that will benefit the whole snowboarding community... Adams Lin has done just that.

Adams Lin is a passionate man who cannot conceive the world of winter sports without snowboarding and since he discovered this winter sport practice he was hooked from the get-go. But as the time passed by and despite always looking for the latest trend in the snowboarding industry the boredom started to creep in because the more he looked for innovation the more his disappointment grew to a point that he decided instead of waiting for innovations that it seems were never going to happened any time soon and on top of that was leaving the snowboarding community with a sense of "déjà vu", he decided instead that he wasted already to much time waiting for others to bring the innovation that he was so desperate to find on the market that he decided to be an agent of change and started thinking about what he could do to improve the situation and provide a new answer that will benefit the whole snowboarding community and industry. And I kid you not he invented the first snowboard equipped with suspension which in turn brings many benefits to the snowboarding practice. On Adams Lin very own words, and for you to understand this breakthrough technology, making the following analogy "is like being used to drive a truck and suddenly being given a Lamborghini".
