VANCOUVER, Oct. 30, 2020 - Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. (TSXV:CQV.H) (the “Company”) announces that Ikänik Farms, Inc.’s (“Ikänik” or “Ik?nik Farms”) wholly owned, CBD-focused subsidiary, Ikänik Life, has expanded its action sports family with the addition of snowboarding phenom, Toby Miller.
“We are excited to welcome Toby to the Ik?nik family and participate in his athletic progression. Toby’s love for snowboarding is contagious and his unique approach to competing in the halfpipe makes him a global fan favorite.” said Brian Baca, CEO of Ik?nik Farms.
Toby kicked off his professional career by winning the USASA Nationals title and major sponsors by the age of 13. His career trajectory has continued to grow over the years, with 2018 being a breakout season for Miller, as he exploded onto the pro scene and made a statement by owning three podiums in major halfpipe competitions. Last season, Toby stole the show at X Games in Aspen, Colorado and won a bronze medal in the men’s snowboarding halfpipe event.
Toby is focusing on the 2022 Olympic Games in China, with an intense training regimen that is preparing him both mentally and physically to be a leader, in his first of many winter Olympics. He trains with Ik?nik Farms board member and US Snowboarding coach JJ Thomas, alongside Shaun White. Toby and Shaun have been riding together since he was 13 years old, and now they will be pushing each other as they each try to earn a spot on the US Olympic halfpipe team this season.
“I’m grateful to have partnered up with Ik?nik Life CBD to help maintain longevity in the sport I love.” said Miller, “Focusing on personal care and training is my top priority.”
