November 11, 2016

San Clemente, California (November 11, 2016) – Electric partnered with global snow retail icon Wave Rave by bringing the Legends of the Volt Tour to Mammoth, Ca. in celebration of Mammoth’s Opening Day. On location with Wave Rave, the Legends of the Volt Tour opened the doors of its mobile showroom to the public to experience all of the 2016 Electric Goggle product and the latest Brose Lens, in addition to the award winning Stacker. Electric also debuted a new mountain inspired sunglass called the Road Glacier, designed in tandem with Chris Christenson, a world-renown snowboard and surfboard shaper and Electric ambassador.

Kicking off as Wave Rave opened its doors to the hundreds of riders who flocked to Mammoth to get a jump on the new season, Electric’s custom outfitted mobile showroom provided customers a unique look into the latest goggle product and lens technology. Showcasing the newly designed Brose lens in the Electrolite, Charger, EG2, and other classic frame silhouettes, customers could touch, feel, and experience and purchase the goggles, enjoy free barbecue, music, games and more.

“This tour really means the world to Electric,” said Eric Crane, CEO and Owner. “I have learned more about our business and the changing landscape of retail on this tour than in the last four years behind a desk. The brand really comes to life when we can have the opportunity to tell our story alongside key retail partners like Steve Klassen and the crew at Wave Rave. As ground zero for the snow scene in Mammoth, Wave Rave is the ultimate partner for our snow program. Through Steve’s support, Wave Rave has played a very important role in the history of Electric from day one. Wave rave is another one of the great independent retailers in our industry.” 

“The first day on the mountain is a special time, its really all about the locals,” said Steve Klassen, owner Wave Rave. “Its cool that Electric is out here supporting the local community. Wave Rave has been with Electric since the beginning, and I’m happy to help tell that story.”
