word. 3D is pure shit. i dont know why they thought it would be a better idea.. its so much more limited.
ICS is epic though, if youre going to be on a burton board with burton bindings (unions and a couple others also work)….. EST is cool too, but really doesnt do much for me or most people, in reality.

although burton makes some good products….the binding system is a pain in the to deal with cuz they use a 3X3 system…im a fan of the 4X4

Agreed Burton is horrible.
It’s safe to safe they are going to eventually completely ruin snowboard if they haven’t already.

I get that a lot of people don’t know the history of things they don’t like, but you guys should probably know that Burton was the first company to commercialize snowboarding. So I don’t understand the poser thing. Jake Burton, for one, is not.
I have owned a K2 board in the past though (Mini Zeppelin), and they are nice. It does get kinda funny though considering how people will argue over how one compressed stack of sheet-metal/wood is better than another compressed stack of sheet-metal/wood.

the board they showed that was being silk screened looks just like the board i have, im 99.9% sure it is the same one, its made by burton.
September 2nd, 2009 at 11:46 pm
These guys get paid …
These guys get paid a whopping $5.85 an hour to eat wood and carbon chips, sniff killer epoxy or polyester fumes and vinyl silkscreen inks, while wearing gloves, face masks, and aprons. Factory makes $1500 an hour….no health insurance offered. Average lifespan of craftsmen is about 10 years of this stuff.

this is the best background music “how its made” has.

I used to ’snowboard’ every morning after breakfast, during the day after lunch, and last thing at night, but because of Global Warming, I now go surfing instead.
