Dear John
Dear John by Tziping Leong.
A “Dear John letter” is letter written to a man by his wife or romantic partner to inform him that their relationship is over. The term originated during World War II when soldiers received such letters from their partners back home. While the letter typically begins with “Dear John,” it can be addressed to anyone, and its use has since broadened to encompass various types of breakups beyond romantic contexts. Yes, even to those who fall in love with snowboarding and elope to the slopes.
From skinning their little knees back in kindergarten to blasting down gnarly powder chutes, these lovers have no fear. Only scars.
As with all Proteus boards, this design features the patented Proteus Adjustable Camber system, a guaranteed-premium board construction, and a strategic, multi-directional shape.
Boards are available. Order while supplies last!
Proteus Adjustable Camber System
Engineered and developed on the slopes, the patented Proteus Adjustable Camber System provides the ability to alter your board on the fly. Dynamic weather and terrain necessitates a dynamic board.
The Stiffness Guide
We offer 4 build types that cater to rider preferences for board stiffness. The 4 types are determined by different fiberglass weights, placement, and fiber orientation.

The Accessories Guide
Adjustment Wrench
The Adjustment Wrench included with every board order is essential for adjusting the camber / rocker of your Proteus Snowboard. With a ratcheting 12 point ¼” wrench with a CNC machined handle that extends for leverage and retracts for storage.
Snow Stopper
The Snow Stopper is made from a resilient and flexible urethane rubber that keeps snow out of your Adjustable Camber system while you ride, so you can quickly adjust the board without needing to clear snow and ice from the center. The Snow Stopper comes tethered to the board standard.
All Temp Board Wax
All boards need to be waxed before they are ridden. It is important to pick the right temperature wax for each day, but we can give you an “all temp” wax as a base to start you off.
