Charles Russell Johnson
CR Johnson was born out of open minded free loving parents Rusty and Lorraine. Pushed out into a hot summer night in Truckee California August 10th 1983, CR was born good and born screaming. When one looks up perseverance in the dictionary there ought to be a picture of CR pushing a walker learning to take baby steps after suffering a ski accident in 2005. This ski accident left him in a coma for two weeks with major brain injuries.
Now compare that to the next photo less then 2 years later of him shooting out of West Face on KT at Squaw Valley. He was dedicated and inspiring. CR appreciated his family, friends and a powder day. He rode the positive choo choo train and was accepting of all people. Curious and open minded when it came to folks who had beliefs that were not
his own.
Son, brother, friend and 100% lover. He loved to love and loved to ski. Loved to sit down and work on his sewing machine. Loved to wear that green jacket! Proud lion, free spirit, shooting star!

The CRJ is best described by CR himself: " The 4FRNT CRJ is my first REAL promodel. I worked with an engineer for two months to develop the break through: Half normal camber and sidecut, half reverse camber and sidecut shape. This ski has revolutionized the sport of skiing for me, by opening up a whole world of ways a ski can perform. Skiing will never be the same for me and I have never been having so much fun. "

Here are a few things about the ski.
- The medallion design with line drawing of the lion with the quotes "Our warrior is still with us".
- The hook was something that CR's dad suggested be incorporated. It is a Polynesian roots from Maui and was also the symbol of his dad's motorcycle club.
- In the pattern the words: love, life, family, friends, were placed
The ski construction: Anything in color and black will be sublimated by a metallic ink flood coat. The top logo and anything in the lighter black will be a matte black overprint. Sections of the pattern and the lion will reveal the ski's wood core.
