AN OWNER-OPERATOR COMPANY
David Lambert | Owner & Founder
Yes, we are still an owner-operator company!
In 2026, three out of the four OG founders of West Snowboards decided that it was time to pass the torch to a younger team guided by an eternal motivated Founder – David Lambert
THE SOUL, THE HEART, THE BRAIN AND THE HANDS continue their journey within different people but under the same guidance.
West was born in Switzerland from our common vision for what Snowboarding truly is. Through West we want to share our love of Snowboarding by creating quality board, eclectic shapes and inspired designs.
With more than 30 years of experience from the founder blended with the new generation styles, ideas and communication, West will keep providing «la crème de la crème» of Snowboarding.
Snowboarding kept it going all the way and so we do. We want to continue to be part of this story and as proud descendents of the small brands that have made snowboarding what it is today, the tradition of underground brand will continues with West.
