The theme of this issue is Lawful Bodies, and inside the pages of Sisu Magazine, we are exploring the systematic ways in which certain bodies have been deemed unlawful and unwelcome in society. Along with that, we are also celebrating these bodies and our own as we question social norms about body positivity, sexual health and intimacy, self-care, and joy.
A very big THANK YOU to Merrell for making this issue possible.

We knew we deserved better equipment and a community that saw us, heard us, valued us, and put us front and center. So we said goodbye to shrink-it-and-pink-it and toxic bro culture and said hello to something more: a community that values camaraderie over competition, solidarity over sending, and compassion over cuntery.
We believe that the recipe for making a kick-ass pair of skis or snowboards has nothing to do with what's between your legs but what's between your ears and in your heart. We start with a concept that meets our unique needs and work with a team of engineers to bring our designs to life. We manufacture in reputable factories that prioritize the health and safety of their team and the environment. We test, bring in our Ambassadors and Athletes (did you know that our skis have been in the Olympics?), refine, and then deliver a finished product to you.
From the beginning, we’ve been willing to do and say what our peers won’t. There is no place for the status quo, no room for hanging back, no time for wait or play it safe. In everything we create, we aim to make a positive impact in the world of snowsports and beyond. And that’s what makes us different. We're Coalition Snow, and we're the ones we've been waiting for.
Skiing and snowboarding mean so much to so many people, and every relationship is different. We asked our Athlete & Ambassador Team to share what Coalition and the Community Care Sale means...
It’s time for a PSA about what the Community Care Sale is and what it isn’t.
It's risky to try to win April Fools, but we throw our name in the hat every year.
