Bethesda Debuts New Line of Snowboards Including DOOM, Fallout, And More
Bethesda has been known in the past to put out some incredible merchandise for fans to collect and use, although sometimes they’re a bit out of the ordinary. The company has recently partnered up with Never Summer Industries to bring fans skis and snowboards themed after Fallout, Skyrim, and Doom so fans can ride some of the coolest gear gaming has to offer.
A recent tweet on Bethesda’s official account reveals that a Doom-inspired snowboard is now available within the Bethesda store. The board features the key art from the Doom reboot on the top sheet, with the text logo against a black or white background for the base layer.

The Doom Key Art snowboard isn’t the only one arriving on the scene either. There are multiple boards and skis themed after Fallout 76 and the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim available through Bethesda’s official store. The boards are all fashioned in the same way and feature a variety of sizes ranging from 154 to a 163cm-wide boards.
- Twin tip all mountain boards with trench digging edge hold
- USA made Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 base for superior durability and wax absorption
- Sintered p tex sidewalls that provide additional damping on hard pack surfaces
- Full length multi density wood core
- Never Summer Industries patented rocker camber design for forgiveness in the neutral position and amazing pop!
The skis will feature a total of 3 sizes, either 161, 171, or 181 cm and will be made with similar materials as the snowboards:
- These Never Summer skis are snappy, responsive and damping of the p tex sidewall provides superior stability at speeds
- Directional all mountain skis
- Rocker tip and tail with camber underfoot providing forgiveness edge to edge but superior power out of turns
- Popular wood core
- Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 base for superior durability and wax absorption
- Sintered p tex sidewalls that provide additional damping on hard pack surfaces
Never Summer has making snowboards since 1983 and operates out of Denver, Colorado. The company has a strong reputation for their attention to quality, focusing less on hype and promotion. Instead, the attention lies in the equipment’s quality and durability, using the best materials, top-tier craftmanship, and incredible customer service.
While both are available to pre-order in a variety of sizes, the snowboards will set fans back $500 while a pair of skis will be priced at $550. Unfortunately fans are limited to 1 item per user and if fans find a way to abuse that ordering system, will be subject to a cancellation.
