Rider-founded

Demon United wasn't dreamed up in a boardroom. It was built by two brothers who grew up riding motorcycles, skiing, snowboarding and BMX in California since the early '80s — chasing powder as snowboarding was being invented around them. We make the gear we wish we'd had on the days we hit the deck.

The Origin Run

Late '80s — '90

Raised on Tahoe snow

Boreal, Kirkwood and Squaw Valley were the home resorts as snowboarding arrived on the scene. Years of riding — and slamming — planted the idea that would become Demon.

A stomp pad, and a company

The brothers joined forces to create Demon Sports, with one goal: make stomp pads for snowboarders. The first product — the Stomplock — pulled double duty as a stomp pad and an anti-theft lock for resort boards.

All-in at the SIA show in Las Vegas

They invested every dollar they had to show the Stomplock at the SIA Snowsports show — knowing that if it didn't sell, it was over. It didn't just sell. It moved 5,000 units in the first year.

Today — Demon United

One brand. Utah-built. Worn worldwide.

Demon Sports branched into skiing, BMX, mountain biking and every gravity sport in between — moving through Demon International, Demon Snow, Demon Dirt, Demon Optics and Demon Protection along the way. Today, headquartered in Utah, Demon United designs and engineers D3O®-powered products for everything gravity throws at you. Same two brothers. Same mission.

We make great products that keep you from an early grave.
