OVERVIEW
The Locker Project will ultimately be a traveling, interactive showcase of professional snowboarders and skiers. Each locker is a mini-museum dedicated to an athlete and his/her personal sponsors.
Locker contents can display anything from gear to funky memorabilia.
   
Each locker will have see-through door cut-outs to view the contents. Other elements in the program include a big-screen, interactive video display, music listening stations featuring athlete playlists, prize giveaways and an online version of the Locker Project at NextSnow.com and more than 100 resort websites.
   
Athletes and their sponsors will determine the décor and design of their locker so that each is a one of a kind exhibit that this authentic to each athlete. Contents could include just about anything:
 
 
Skis / Snowboard Poles Boots
Apparel Eyewear Goggles
Helmet or hat Wax Camera
