  • Monument Snowboards is a snowboard company based out of the Mid-Atlantic founded in late 2001 by David Tran. Based out of the Mid-Atlantic, it was first started as a house brand for Capitol Board Room (originally owned by Chad and Mike Ellis), a snowboard shop based out of Virginia, then emerged into its own brand with a full team by 2003. The original Capitol Board Room Snowboard/Skateboard/Surf shop was open from 1996-1998 under the Ellis Brothers. Tran kept the web site up as part of his portfolio after the shop closed. After a trip out west in 1999, owner Dave Tran had all of his equipment stolen from Dulles Airport ($2,500 value) from United Airlines on his way out to Steamboat Springs, Colorado. He then decided to start up Capitol Board Room, online, after talking with Chad Ellis and getting his blessing to use the name 1. Two years after starting up Capitol Board Room, Tran started Monument Snowboards, under the Capitol Board Room umbrella. After picking up local Virginia rider, Jeremy Cline from Massanutten Mountain, VA, the company started to move from a generic house brand to its own entity by adding team members that worked at June Mountain, CA for the 2005 Transworld Snowboarding Magazine Team Challenge. In 2005, several team members were featured in DFI's snowboard video, "the over surveillance." In 2006, the company put a video called, "Clouds Happen." Monument Snowboards has participated in numerous events including 2005 Transworld Snowboarding Team Challenge, and 2006 Snowboarder Magazine's SuperPark event. In 2007, Monument Snowboards will be attending the Snowsports Industry Association tradeshow in Las Vegas. A meetup group has been established to help snowboarders in the Mid-Atlantic region to find other snowboarders to ride with and to promote the sport of snowboarding.
