“Casey Nelson is an extremely passionate, dedicated, hard-working and humble snowboarder. He has an insane amount of skill on every kind of terrain, from jumps to jibs to backcountry, and it comes across in his riding. Casey is also a pleasure to hang around with off the hill. We feel he is a great fit with us as a company because of his attitude, lifestyle and personality, and could not be happier or more stoked to have him as part of our team.”
- Ana Van Pelt, Niche Snowboards
“It’s a good feeling to see a young rider accomplish the goal he set years ago. Casey is a sick rider with great natural talent and a ton of potential. It was this and the suggestion by Marc Frank [Montoya] that he move to the pro team and we are glad to have him aboard.”
- Travis Wood, Sims (2008)
“We were blessed with the presence of ridiculously skilled freestyle phenom Casey Nelson this year. Ever seen perfectly executed blunts popped out of a Superpipe, onto the deck, with flawless reentry? Nelson has ‘em locked. Casey Nelson jibs like a mofo and is equally adept at spinny kicker shenanigans. What made Casey’s board-testing method remarkable was sheer volume-hitting at least twenty rails, ten smaller jumps, six big banger kickers, and a couple of runs through the pipe.”
- Cody Dresser, excerpt from twsnow.com (2008)
Casey has been seen in snowboard videos such as Familia, Represent, General Population, Living Proof, and movies from Finger On Da Trigger. He has also had many photos published throughout every major snowboard mag internationally.
