Guest_4820 : Scotty J into the finals of the US open «link»
Banga : so much hate, if Burton wasn't around to prop up the rest of the snowboard industry, the cooler hesh brands wouldn't be able to operate, Guest 2329, what board do you ride?
Guest_2923 : abbey lee
Guest_2923 : abbey lee
Guest_2329 : Burton stopped caring about the good of snowboarding a long time ago. Only a punter brand anyways. No surprise they are doing everything possible to increase profit margins.

Hang on again : Guest 4510. No. I'm not a Burton employee, & I have never bought a Burton board.

Either directly by buying it's products or indirectly by the evolution of
