Its cool how Burton is now sponsoring skiers for clothing and shit like that...someone told me that volcom is working on the design of a ski,and other snowboard companies are now also working on designing skis to,i think it would be cool...but thats just me

 
Shows that the sport is growing. Burton is also advertising their Anon goggle line in Freeze.

Hibachi King drops 9/9/04...and it shouldnt suck! hah
 
thats what i thought when i heard about volcom,its obvious they dont make boards but they have the money to invest in learning how to make skis and boads,for sure.

 
...but I could have swore Burton was ripping on skiers a year or two ago, that's why someone took the 'Burton Snowboarding' logo and made it say 'Burnt on snowboarding'...anyone know for sure?

I dont know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

 
^^ yeah i agree , like the teams would consist of both skiers and boarders and the vids were like solidpowder where theres both

i like snowboarding just the same as skiing

well thats a pile of shit...lots of them think its just funny to wreck on skiers cuz their part of a group of people who are 'the shit'. If they say skiers dont have style then they dont know what style is...thats how i think of it

 
almost all of the boarders at my mountain were really chill and hung out with the skiers and stuff. It's ridiculous for skiers and boarders to be seperate. Other than a few minor differences, we're both out there doing the same thing. Plus, snowboarders are usually really fun.

-Jason
 
it all depends on how good you are, skiers that aren't so good at tricks or don't have good air sense don't have alot of style but its the same with snowboarder, some flail like mother fuckers. Its just more simple with your feet strapped to one thing oppose to seperated.

fucking burton is the worst company ever. they are the only boards that my friends and have broken or heard of being broken. i got some burton gloves and there falling apart for no reason, never even use tow ropes. Fuck burton.

I got Jerry Garcia in a pouch man!!

Just do what Chong would do.
 
Yeah, Burton lost money my ass.

TJ Schiller and Dash are the team for now. There are some local riders too though.

 
burton lost money. it was in the summit daily news. they said ''burton lost money.'' what about your ass?

-Strode

Abba Zabba, you my only friend
 
The summit daily news is hardly a reliable news source. Try Transworld Snowboarding Business. Jake Burton was on the cover, and it said 'Snowboarding's Most Powerful'. Burton is the number one snowboarding company in the world. Not neccasarily the best, but the biggest. They didn't lose money.

jibij pro-shop will be the first ski specific shop to carry anon goggs. the leather frame for next year is so sweet.

just saying what i read.....and my dad happens to be an editor there so i don't just view all of it as bullshit. i dunno though.....it was an article about union snowboards, also said k2's snowboarding division barely broke even this year as well. but maybe it's all just secrets and lies who knows

i was talking to the burton rep and anon and burton aren't sponsoring skiers, they just realised taht alot of people other tahn borders are wearing there shit so why not expand advertising to other magazines, but they are still gonna stay true to snowboarding, jack burton will never let skiers be sponsored by them, but he doesn't care if they buy his stuff

A homophobe once told me that skiing on parabolics is like getting a blowjob from a gay guy, it feels good until you look down.

 
Burton put out some stickers that had a skier on them with a line across. I know because I have seen them on boards and friends have them. So that doesn’t really give me respect from their company.

 
no the subject of skiers and boarders with air sense, the average park skier i see has alot better air sense than the average boarder

 
Support the companies that support skiing for a reasons other than just expanding their market place.

I dont know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
 
not too long ago all the snowboarding companies were dissin skiers. still happens sometimes too

yeah they dont much anymore, because they know we're good. LIke every year at X the skiing pipe comp beats the shit outta the snowboardin pipe. All my friends that board hate watchin the board pipe comp, yet they love to come over ant watchin the skiing and ask me the names of all the name of all the tricks, and shit.

 
hehe all my snowboarder friends were GLUED to the tv for the X pipe ski finals

aceofspades, there are more skiiers in the park with air sense but there are the same amount of snowboarders with air sense. It's because skiing isn't as big and doesn't have as many people shredding the park and the posers of our sport are actually scared to go into the park, where as snowboardings poser actually go in the park and sit around and have no air sense.

You just see more snowboarder that suck because there are just more boarders on the mountain.

 
funny this came up. we had been talking about this for a while now, the more companies the better in my mind, but alot of the companies mentioned were so anti skiing in the beginning that i find it hard that they truly want to jump on the band wagon, other than for money. now that skiing can prove that it can sustain a independent market other companies want in too. i feel,my opinion, that driving smaller companies to success is the way to force our sport to the top of the genre, it is our sport and we(that means you!!!)should decide what is cool not companies that hated on skiing for so long, peace campbell
