Transworld Snowboarding is an American magazine and website dedicated to snowboarding culture. The magazine is published four times a year and features articles on the sport, culture and lifestyle of modern snowboarding.
History
Transworld Snowboarding has been published since 1987[2][3] and is distributed internationally. Kevin Kinnear was the founding editor and Guy Motil was the first photo editor.[4] From the launch of the magazine, the Transworld owners and editorial staff were instrumental in petitioning ski resorts to allow snowboarding.
During the late 1990s, a visit by "The Chameleon," an undercover splitboarder who would reassemble his snowboard at the top of the lift and ride down, was the editorial staff's instrument of choice for calling attention to the last ski resort holdouts including Alta, Park City, Aspen Mountain, Keystone, and Taos.[5]
On October 15, 2002, Infogrames/Atari released a video game for the Xbox console titled Transworld Snowboarding developed by Housemarque.[6] In 2005, the magazine and its likeness began appearing in the SSX videogame franchise, beginning with SSX On Tour.
In 2013, most of the Transworld titles were sold by Bonnier to Source Interlink Media.[7]
It is the most widely subscribed snowboard magazine in the world with over 1.3 million copies sold annually[8] (compared to Snowboarder Magazine at 800,000 annually[9]). Transworld Snowboarding is under the brand of Transworld Media, which publishes the magazines Transworld Skateboarding and others. It is currently edited by Annie Fast, aided by Nick Hamilton as photo/video editor (formerly of Whitelines snowboard magazine).
