Offering primo response, pop and landing stability, this unique twin shape provides the best of both the rocker and camber worlds. Hybrid ProRize™ combines the surfy feel of rocker with the hard charging pop you get from traditional camber. It’s accomplished by featuring micro-rocker in the tip and tail to maintain a fun, surfy, hook-free feel and micro-camber with a flat zone between the feet to maintain snap and amplify the pop factor.

And look for this new shape to appear on the Limited DH2.4 and DH2.5 models hitting stores Oct. 1 and Nov. 1 - set to reveal Sept 15th and Oct. 15th!

Los Angeles, CA -- Olympic snowboarder Hannah Teter wins VH1's "Do Something” award for improving the lives of poor children around the world through her own charity and Children International.

The award is given to young people 25 years and younger for their commitment to social change. Teter, who supports seven impoverished children through Children International, has pledged even more support for the humanitarian organization by contributing 40 percent of the proceeds from the sales of her Sweet Cheeks Panties line to feeding malnourished children through Children International's feeding program.

"There are so many children who barely get enough to eat. Children International can feed a child for a month in their feeding program with the proceeds from the sale of one pair of Sweet Cheeks,” said Teter.

Children International's President and CEO Jim Cook said, "Children International is grateful to Hannah Teter for her ongoing compassion for impoverished children around the world. Hannah is richly deserving of the VH1's recognition as a "Do Something” award recipient and we salute her for this achievement and her good work!”
