Schwinn Stingray snowboard

History of the Schwinn Stingray snowboard as told by former Schwinn employee Matt Karaus: 

I actually worked there during that period and was responsible for the project.

This particular board was made on Vashon Island by American Snowboard Manufacturing. Total production as I recall was 500.

That project happened over 17 years ago and was a one off. It was produced by an OEM snowboard manufacturer that was started up by some of the original founders of K2.
