I love Burton Snowboard

Do you like Burton? Turns out we do too. That's why we dedicated this page to one of the most, if not the most, notorious and respected brand in the entire snowboard industry.

Burton is a story about perseverance. In 1977, canadian Jake Burton Carpenter who was a bartender at the time decides to make his own snowboard manufacture. Snowboarding barely even exists at that time and snowboarders are not very welcome in ski resorts. The challenge was super risky but totally worth it. Nowadays, Burton is a worldwide leader with 30 to 35% of market share. 

But snowboards were only a start. The leading manufacturer expands to other equipment with dedicated brands: Anon Optics (snow goggles), R.E.D. Protection (helmets and protectors), Analog Outerwear and Gravis Footwear. In 2005 Burton buys Forum Snowboarding, Jeenyus Snowboards, Foursquare Outerwear and Special Blend Outerwear. 

If the brand has acquired a strong know-how in making snowboards, it also offers a full range of snow clothing and accessories. Some of the best riders in the world, including the legend Shaun White, ride Burton products. There's hardly anything else to say to convince you that Burton is a reliable brand that knows how to make great snowboards right?


The story behind Burton Snowboards


Snurf Burton Snowboard

The story of Burton Snowboards begins in 1977 with Jake Burton. Back in the day, he was just one of those kids who were fond of snurfing. The Snurfer was created in 1965 by Sherman Poppen and was the predecsessor of the snowboard. Snurf is a mix of snow and surf.
The Snurfer was basically a monoski that was shorter and wider than a pair of skis and had no bindings. It glided sideways like a surfboard. Jake Burton spent a few years working on it and trying to improve the way it worked on the snow.

In 1977 he quits his job in Manhattan and leaves for Londondery, Vermont, USA, in order to shape his own boards and start selling them. Burton was convinced that snowboarding would become a big thing, he just didn't know how big it would actually become. He designed his first ever snowboard, the Backhill in his backyard barn. Without knowing it, he had just founded the first snowboard factory in the world, Burton Snowboards. 


Quickly, the one-man adventure becomes a real company with 4 or 5 people working for him. The barn, the living room and basically the entire house are used for designing, building and dispatching the snowboards ordered by a few passionate riders around the country who had heard of Burton Snowboards already. When orders tend to slow down, Jake tours the shops around to show and sell his boards. 

But snowboarding is a not a very popular sport at that time and it is forbidden in most if not all american ski resorts. Always optimistic, Burton keeps pushing, meets resorts managers and tries to convince them to open their doors to boarders. His first win happens in 1982 in Suicide Six, Vermont. A few more follow, slowly, including Breckenridge and Stratton in 1983. 

Backhill Burton Snowboard

Now with an access to groomed snow, Burton realizes that his wooden boards are dope on deep powder but they're a nightmare on hard snow. Without metal edges, the boards are out of control. That's how, in 1983, he designed the new Performer snowboard featuring metallic edges and a P Tex base. 

At around the same time, Europe starts showing interest for this new sport and Burton opens offices in Innsbruck, Austria, in 1985, with the european market in mind. The next year, Burton snowboards reach Australia and New Zealand. In the meantime, Burton turns the "National Snowboarding Championship" into the U.S. Open Snowboarding Championship and transfers the event from Suicide Six to Stratton, where it still plays today. The U.S. OPen is now property of Burton Snowboards.

But it's never enough for the insatiable Jake. He knows that the notoriety of his brand needs a boost and begins sponsoring the best riders in the world like Peter Bauer, Jean Nerva or Craig Kelly. Jointly with them, he designs the first signature boards or pro models: the P.J. and the Craig Kelly’s Mystery Air.


Burton's rolling. Since then, the company has never stopped working on improving its products and making the sport better, safer and more enjoyable to more riders. The brand keeps pushing limits and constantly comes up with innovations and upgrades, helping riders live for their passion. Branches opened everywhere in the world (Japan in 1994 for example) and the biggest names and best riders are still rolling for Burton (Terje Haakonsen, Ross Powers, Shaun White, Nicola Thost, Kelly Clark etc). Burton even launched the "Burton Learn to Ride" program to help people discover the joys of snowboarding with a gear that's adapted for them. There are also a few "Learn to Ride centers" teaching riding courses.

Jake Burton: biography and history


Jake Burton

Jake Burton hadn't really planned to become a business man. He was just a kid who received a Snurfer for Christmas, that was it. 

But he happened to like the gift, to use it a lot and to find ways to improve it. Burton spends a lot of time refining his Snurfers until he comes up with a real board prototype in 1977 that would mix skate and surf influences according to him.

Founding a company making products for a market that wasn't even existing at the time, that was quite of a challenge. Jake took that decision on the fly, he didn't know much about what was coming.

Since that day, Burton hasn't stopped working for a minute. Passionate about his work, his company and snowboarding, he manages to spend over a 100 days on the slopes a year. He needs this time for testing his products and, as a matter of fact, he loves riding like all of us. And you may think "yeah the boss goes riding while the staff keeps working". Well, that's not quite true. At Burton, when it's been snowing, employees are given a day off to go riding. And as if this wasn't enough, the company is providing them all with a season ski pass for Vermont resorts.

After battling with cancer, Jake Burton passed away in 2019.

The Burton Team

Since the very beginning, the Burton Team has always been international. From Terje Haakonsen and Shaun White in the past to Mark McMorris, Danny Davis and Kelly Clark, the "Global Team" incorporates the best riders in the world.

Mark McMorris, along with Seb Toots and Charles Reid, belongs to this young army of talented canadian riders who rock at big air and slopestyle events. Mark McMorris still looks like a teenager, he's shy, he's nice, but he also landed the first-ever 1440 in the entire snowboard history. Technical, precise, bold, he spends his time training for contests and practicing new tricks on kickers that are bigger than your house. Since slopestyle has become an olympic event, he works even harder. Mark McMorris is famous for his style and fluidity. You'll rarely see a rider performing tricks like he does.

Danny is a versatile rider with an aggressive style. Skilled in the pipe, Danny Davis is one of the few that can actually challenge Shaun White. The commitment of Davis has often led him to the hospital bed. Always pushing hard, he's spent quite some time recovering from various injuries but hey, that's the key to success.


Kelly Clark
