THE
STORY

At the end of the 1980s, Chris built his first custom made snowboard. It was total crap! But over the years, he learned step by step how to make better boards. In 1998, he opened the shop Cloud 9 and turned his hobby into his profession. When Philipp joined him in 2004, everything became even more professional. Since then, they have worked out many new shapes and technologies which made many many snowboarders very happy. Today, the Factory 9 is one of the most important custom board factories in the world! Pro riders, companies, and customers from all over this planet trust in their know-how and workmanship and their snowboards regularly hit the top of the podiums of all important snowboard events around the globe!
