Jamie Salter is one of the founders of Ride Snowboards along with Tim Pogue and Jason Ford. He is one of the key money guys of early snowboarding, rubbing shoulders with the founders of Burton, Sims, Kemper (Jamie's involvement in the early days of Kemper is huge!), Barfoot, Mervin, Nitro, and many more.
In 1995 Ride Snowboards made headlines by going public, Jamie tells the story behind the hype and lets us in to a world of financial decisions that lead him to own a lot of companies.
Today Jamie Salter's company ABG owns brands like Reabok, Above The Rim, Aeropostale, Airwalk, Elvis, Forever 21, IZOD, Juicy Couture, Nine West, Sports Illustrated, Tapout, Vision Street Wear, and Volcom.
