42 years of milo

Welcome to the Original Milo!

Since 1984, Milosport Snowboard and Skateboard Shop, or MILO SNOW AND SKATE, has been in the snowboarding and skateboarding game. Dimitrije Milovich, for whom the name Milosport derives, was shaping snowboards in the late 1960's, launching his famous Winterstick swallowtail snowboard back in 1972. Dimitrije was indeed a pioneer in the sport, gracing magazines such as Newsweek, Playboy, and all the local media publications.

In snowboarding history, not one person started the sport, but four different individuals.

During the 1970s and 1980s, as snowboarding became more popular, pioneers such as Dimitrije (Winterstick Snowboards), Tom Sims (Sims Snowboards, Jake Burton (Burton Snowboards), and Sherman Poppen (of Snurfer fame) came up with designs and mechanisms that slowly developed into the sport we know today.

Salt Lake City has become the Hollywood of Snowboarding, having more Pros, Bros, and Flows living here than anywhere else in the world.

Maybe it’s the powder, the proximity to the mountains, the liquor laws, sunny video days, or our thick snowboard history. We are not sure why , but we welcome everyone to our shop and our mountains! For over four decades, Milo has seen many changes. Companies have come and gone, pros have come and gone, droughts, recessions, and the famous 2002 Olympics, Covid craziness, and now Tariffs are all part of our history.

Through all of this, we have had, and continue to have, the best staff in all of snowboarding, the best team in all of snowboarding, and have truly been at the epicenter of this great sport. We have experienced this while riding the greatest mountains in the world. We are truly blessed.

So here’s the deal. Because our staff is so good, and our experience so vast, we KNOW we can test and review Snowboard products with the best and convey that info to you! We can tap our own knowledge, experience or even call one of our many contacts if you have questions on specific products tehc, or trends.

We will also invite select reps, sales managers and pros to post blogs and reviews on our site. So check it out, pull up and drop some love!

Oh, and pray for snow, even in the summer time!
