A tribute to the 'bad-ass women' of snowboarding, featuring lith prints, black-and-white photographs, stories and works of art.
“His images are a triumph of artistic photography and snowboard camaraderie that showcase all that is great about women’s snowboarding – something the photographer feels has been left on the margins of the sport for too long.”  — Sam Haddad, Glorious Sport




Heroes: Women in Snowboarding is the product of two years’ work by photographer Jérôme Tanon, following some of the most dedicated female snowboarders around the world. It is a declaration of love, highlighting the culture, passion and dedication of female snowboarders.


Though women's snowboarding has developed radically over the last decade, few photographs celebrate the champions of the sport. Over two winter seasons, Tanon travelled the world to meet several snowboarders, hear their stories and photograph them in the streets, the parks and the back-country. The sheer passion they put into their sport was instantly obvious. Shared here are personal stories and artworks by the snowboarders themselves.

Snowboarding has been Jérôme Tanon's passion since he was a boy. He started shooting in 2007. Living and documenting its lifestyle, publishing in magazines, showing the world how awesome and fulfilling it can be. His process is ‘an absolute make-it-count, all-or-nothing commitment to the art’.

"While the images are the heart of the book, each snowboarder gave snippets of their story which are included in the book alongside their artistic action shots."

"His images are a triumph of artistic photography and snowboard camaraderie that showcase all that is great about women’s snowboarding – something the photographer feels has been left on the margins of the sport for too long."
