VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 18, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SiQ Mountain Industries Inc. (TSXV: SIQ) (the
“Company” or “SiQ”) is pleased to report that the Company has entered the marketing and sales stage of its business development
plans for its new proprietary adjustable camber device for snowboards known as the SiQRockerTM. The
SiQRockerTM will be introduced and demonstrated at the following upcoming events:
-
SEISMIC Spring Mountain Festival at Silver Mountain Resort, BC from March 22 to 24, 2019 and March 29 to 31,
2019 (www.seismicfest.ca)
-
Snowbombing Canada at Sun Peaks Resort, BC from April 5 to 7, 2019 (www.snowbombingcanada.com)
-
World Ski & Snowboard Festival at Whistler, BC from April 10 to 14, 2019 (www.wssf.com)
As previously announced, the SiQRockerTM is the Company’s first market ready product that provides a
convenient way to adjust the camber profile of a snowboard for optimal performance on either powder or hard-packed snow. A
snowboarder will now be able to quickly and easily adjust their snowboard profile with the turn of a dial and without exiting their
bindings. The SiQRockerTM is believed to provide a unique on-mountain advantage to users of snowboards and a PCT patent
application has been filed.
The Company will receive its first 1,000 consumer units shortly. Customers can source the SiQRockerTM
through the Company’s online order program by visiting www.siqrocker.com. Management is currently developing its roll-out model to address retail
distribution later this year.
Peter Hughes, CEO of the Company, comments “The Company has successfully implemented its production model and
the upcoming marketing events are an important piece of our launch strategy and our capacity to fulfill initial market-demand for
the SiQRockerTM. Our SiQRockerTM has the potential to dramatically improve the performance of up to 30
million* snowboards in our worldwide market. This gives SiQ a keystone product to begin its financial growth from business
activities on behalf of our stakeholders.”
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Peter Hughes, CEO and President
