CILLA / CAMP OF CHAMPIONS

CILLA collaborated with Camp Of Champions this summer! We showed up on the glacier to gather all the girls together and had some fun sessions on some of the features. I haven’t had this much fun in a long time!! And the best part was seeing the girls stoked on riding and pushing themselves! Big thanks to COC for making this happen and of course the campers who came and hang out.

MEGAN MIDDLETON UPDATE

My season is winding down. I recently traveled to Whistler for the Showcase Showdown, traveled to Mammoth for the PBRJ Championship, hit up the Hoedown Throwdown at Stevens Pass, and filmed a bunch. I will be at Mt. Hood this summer on the weekends… soaking in the sun and dialing in new tricks. Currently, I am healing an AC Separation. My first fall was at the Ride Shakedown in Washington but I took a recent fall while skateboarding with my buddy, Matt Christie, which tore the ligaments again. Right now… I am healing, editing footage, writing an editorial piece, and working a ton. I just spent the weekend up at Mt. Baker for the infamous Sesh-Up event and will be going back to take more photos on the step-up. My goal this off-season is to cross-train like crazy, save money, spend time with friends/family, and spend personal riding time down at Mt. Hood. Oh, and I have potentially big plans for next season… but, that will remain a surprise for now.

CILLA Welcomes Tara Dakides!!

Cilla Layers is proud to welcome the iconic Tara Dakides to the Cilla Pro Team!  This gutsy legend of women’s snowboarding has done it all in her famed career.  It is hard to imagine any past, present or future female Pro rider who hasn’t been hugely inspired by Tara along the way.  Deemed the “Coolest Sportswoman of 2001” by Sports Illustrated, Tara has won almost every award and accolade possible in snowboarding, including 5 Winter X-Games Gold Medals, Snowboarder Mag’s  “Women’s Rider of the Year” 3 times in a row, EXPN’s “Snowboarder of the Year” in 2002, and ruled the Transworld’s Rider’s Poll Awards for 3 years running.  Tara’s groundbreaking parts in the men’s Mack Dawg snowboarding movies truly set the bar for other women to aspire to, and she followed it up in 2007 with Runway’s “LaLaLand.”
“Tara Dakides is the ultimate rockstar of women’s snowboarding.  I am proud to call her my friend and honored that she is now a part of the Cilla Family.” — Alexis Waite, Cilla Partner and VP of Sales and Marketing.
Independent, talented, feisty and beautiful, Tara really put women’s snowboarding on the map.  An influential and inspiring athlete, she has been featured on countless videos, magazines and TV shows, including an infamous David Letterman stunt show.  Tara’s multi-faceted interests include rally car racing, motocross, surfing, skating and other action sports.   Her riveting 2008 autobiographical documentary “Against the Grain” really laid it out with brutal honesty and self-assessment.  Tara has the courage of her convictions, and she is well known for her cool style and down-to-earth attitude.  She is currently filming a major motion picture in Austria, set for release in 2011.
“The quality of the fabrics feel great against my skin while keeping me warm and dry.  The longer tops with the waterproof band keeps snow out of my pants when I’m riding and adds some style to my kit.  Cilla is my under-layer for riding, but cute enough to wear to my yoga class or as casual street wear.  I love the simplicity and style of Cilla.” –-Tara Dakides, Cilla Pro Team Rider
“I have always been a huge fan of Tara, she’s the legend of women’s snowboarding, and I never thought that one day she would be representing my clothing company.  Thanks, Tara!” -–Priscilla Levac, Cilla Founder and Partner
The whole Cilla Team is proud that Tara Dakides chooses to rock Cilla Layers when she rides and plays!
