ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

     Morrow Snowboards, Inc. (the "Company") expects to announce its financial
results for the fiscal year ended December 27, l997 on March 19, l998
("Fiscal 1997"). Based on a preliminary review of its Fiscal l997 financial
results, the Company's losses will materially exceed those projected (due to
lower than expected revenue and other factors), resulting in the Company's net
worth falling below that required under the Loan and Security Agreement
("Agreement") between LaSalle Business Credit, Inc. ("Lender") and the Company,
an event of default under that Agreement.

     The Company is working closely with the Lender to address the Lender's
concerns. The Lender, to preserve its rights, noted the default, and agreed to
forbear from exercising its rights and remedies under the Agreement prior to
April 10, l998 to give the Company time to address its future capital
requirements based on prebook orders which are now being received.

     During the forbearance period, the Lender has invoked the Default Rate of
Interest (2.5% above the normal rate) and limited advances under certain lines,
which the Company does not believe will affect its operations during the
forbearance period. The Agreement and other documents related to the Company's
credit line with the Lender are contained in the Company's Form 8-K dated
November 11, l997.

     To address the Lender's concerns, as well as its own projected working
capital needs, the Company may need to raise additional capital. The Company is
currently reviewing its capital requirements and exploring various alternatives
to raise additional capital. If the Company were unsuccessful in addressing the
Lender's concerns during the forbearance period or, if required, raising
additional capital, the Company's operations and ability to realize on its
business plan could be adversely affected. Additional information will be 
supplied as available.

                                  SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed
on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of
Salem, State of Oregon, on March 10, 1998.
