Beer Binding the Company

Established 2021.  

Beer Binding is the original ski & snowboard beverage can holder. Beer Binding is inventor owned and operated by a 38 year old snowboard dirtbag operating out of a camper van somewhere in the mountains. 

Beer Binding Product Story

After multiple initial iterations with a Voilé strap, single velcro strap, I finally landed on the double velcro strap with collapsible can sleeve design. I tested this product on my local hill in spring of 2021 and received non-stop positive feedback and requests to buy them from me at the top and bottom of the lifts and while riding the runs.

The Beer Binding OG was later improved through the use of thicker straps and a thicker can sleeve which resulted in the Beer Binding PRO product. 


About Raleigh the Designer/Developer

Beer Binding is my craft. I grew up in Gig Harbor, WA and started snowboarding at Snoqualmie Pass via the ski bus at age 12. After a couple years riding that every weekend, my older brother and I started riding the Crystal Mountain ski bus every weekend for another couple years until we could drive. I later taught lessons at Snoqualmie West via Cascade Ski School where I learned myself. College found me at Mt. Baker, where I spent all of two winters chasing some fast skiers and riders. A bunch of time in San Diego went by before returning to the Northwest. I worked on-mountain operations for Whitefish Mountain Resort for 1 year recently. Most recently I buy a season pass to White Pass, WA. I make Beer Bindings myself while traveling in my van, it's like when everyone else reads a book, I make Beer Bindings. And in return, Beer Binding has supported my Snowboarding for the past 4 season.  

No doubt this is a novelty statement ski & snowboard accessory, but for a mountain enthusiast who loves beer it’s really something special. A great gift for a skier or snowboarder who likes beer. As someone who’s had exploded backpack beers, and even broken a rib falling on a beer in my jacket pocket, this is the best solution to have that extra beer or two if/when you need it on the chair or at the safety meeting.
