What are your thoughts on people that wear all Burton gear? (Jacket, pants, etc.)

I personally think that they make great outerwear. However, a friend on mine has all Burton gear (Anon goggles, coat, jacket, hat, gloves) and I find it odd that he only wears Burton.

I saw this girl, matching pants, jacket, helmet, goggles, boots and gloves. I couldn't believe it. it was a salmon kinda color with greenish/turquoise pattern in it. She looked like puke on snow.

my thoughts: a tad bit rediculous.

Can't figure it out. Sorry bro.

Do you think that having a jacket and pants even takes it too far? My friend wanted to buy matching pinstripe Burton ****. Regardless of the pinstripe ugliness, would a jacket-pant combo be worth gaper status?

I wear matching burton jacket and pants, they happen to be tan and black pinstripe as well, im down with it, it makes me stand out but i dont really care burton makes good outer wear, now if your board and bindings are burton as well then thats a little far but I would do that if burton made good boards but they dont. I rock burton bindings as well but not because they are burton because I they are good bindings. People who buy burton just because it is burton they are just gapers but anyone who likes to match meh its ok for me though if i rocked the total set up form burton it would just be a coincidence.

I ride with everything Burton, outerwear/fleece/first layer/beanie/gloves/socks/boots/bindings/board/etc., except Oakley goggles.

Guess that makes me a gay gaper, oh well, who gives a fu ck really...except for you try hard posers that just have to try to impress everyone by how core you are hating on Burton.

You should be riding to enjoy yourself, not to try and impress others with your extreme core-ness.

You think I'm gay riding all Burton...I think you're extra gay being so insecure about yourself that you have to hate on Burton to try and fit in with the core crowd.

Excellent Jackets, only a shell though, so you need to provide any warmth required with fleece/wool and first layer.

I find the wrist strap on gloves is important, if it was me I'd send them back if still under warranty. No point dealing with broken gear if you can get it replaced under warranty, and I guess now your season if over (or soon to be over) you won't be needing them for a while.

Im not a fan of matching...though, I do wear mainly earth colours...and there are only so many types of earth colour...so, your bound to get some things that match on the odd occasion. My definition of a gaper/steezo is of one that wears there gear half hanging off there ass, and can't ride for poohs, but has all the gear,and talks a "fairly good game". I'm sure we all have seen them on the mountain...hanging out in there lil steezo groups gibbering away like monkeys about some random trick (i.e. backwards nollie poppa grab with a japan switch back sauce grab 900 to fakie combo) they were trying to pull...

Yep, sorry about that, just the constant Burton bashing gets on my nerves, nothing to do with you though, so yes it was out of line. Burton Bashing is prevalent you'll just have to learn to live with it. 90% of all the KIDS and I stress the kids part hopped on the band wagon just to be cool or seem hard.

Nah I'm far from the core I hate burton cause its cool. I hate them for all their stupid ass policies, the fact that they steal idea's, the fact that they caused my friend to lose out on a couple million dollars, the fact that since 2002 their product quality has severly gone down while their marketing campaign has further pushed the masses into believing you have to pay top dollar for a mediocre product. They have thus made snowboarding into even more of an elitest sport and taken it away from its roots where we were the rebels of the hills, the poor, the down trodden. There is no reason to sell a product at almost 1000 dollars and hype it as something its not. There is no reason to sell the exact same board with a tweaked shape and a different design for 50 dollars more.

They don't lead the market trends anymore, they copy what all the other solid companies are doing out there. For what you pay for 1 burton you could easily pay less and get a more quality board. There are so many companies that offer full ranges for everyone now. Rome, Salomon, Atomic, Rossignol, NeverSummer, etc. etc. Taking into consideration that now Burton only presses a select set of boards in the USA while all others are now outsourced to Canada, Austria, Tunisia, China they aren't what they hype themselves to be.

Case in point Atomic came out with the Hatchet retail original its first year 299.99. Then every other company had to do something to combat it. T9 invented the cap strap then Burton magically had it and started a law suit that ended up with the court deciding no one could prove who invented it first, although I attribute it to MFM back in like 99/00 rocking his straps over his toes. Or my personal favorite pattenting the Junkyard snow skate after stealing the design from Steve Frink a guy from WA that had spent 10 years building it and owned Snowskate the company. This caused him to lose out on millions of dollars. **** have you ever read the History of snowboarding and how Burton tried to patent the term snowboard then sue every company so that they had to pay them royalties. What about stealing the 3 hole pattern from Mervin, along with triaxle glass, etc. etc.

Quality wise why is it that with a 500 dollar board you don't get any real high end features. There's no added carbon fiber to stiffen it, the base isn't the highest grade, yet with any other company at the 500 dollar price point you get these?

Why is it when I was in vegas other companies that gave me their catalog made sure I wouldn't put the pictures on the internet till after all the dealer demo's so that Burton wouldn't steal their idea's? Pretty sad when Ride and K2 are telling you to watch out because Burton might steal an Idea.

Fact is its different strokes for different folks, so rock head to toe burton, just don't preach to the choir when you get reamed on because you think its the end all be all.

I use it and like it for myself, that's what I tell anyone that asks.

From what I see it's not the people that use Burton that carry on about it being the 'end all be all', it's all the haters that get all hysterical about it, foaming at the mouth about how sh!t the quality and/or company is.

Sure there is plenty of other gear I could buy instead, but it works fine for me, I'm not good enough at riding to really tell the difference between performance of high end Burton gear and high end gear from other companies. It's not like I'm blinded to the fact that there is other gear out there, I check it out in the stores and ride other companies boards on demo days, nothing really grabs me and makes me not want to use the Burton AK clothing, or their carbon bindings, or their dragonfly core boards, that I use.

I don't really care about their company policies, I just ride using their gear and have a great time doing so.

Fear Me does make a good case against Burton products... I got a set of Cartel Bindings last year from an online shop...and when they showed up...to be honest, I was a little shocked with the quality. I figured for the price that they wouldn't look like they were made out of cheap plastic, but alas they did. They are still a nice binding to ride though, it is just the quality that was a little dissappointing. As for outerwear...I have some Ronin pants, and they are quite good, and have lasted well. I have a Calhar jacket, which although only 10k/10k is very nice compared to most of the similar spec Burton products, has more features, and was less costly (Burton is farrrrrrrrken expensive stuff here although they doseem to have the market dominated).

\but how is it different if someone wears all burton verusus if someone wore all bonfire, or oakley or ride outerwear?

in my opinion its because "everyone likes burton," and its the thing to wear, plus burton stuff is instantly recognizable. how many times have you seen a pair of bonfire, oakley or ride clothes, and said "i wonder who makes that?" (excluding those oakley pants that say it down the side) but with burton, the logo always seems to be in your face. but thats just my point of view.

Funny you say you don't preach that Burton is so great. Rode with a friend of yours today she seemed to tell me that you really pushed how Great Burton stuff was on her.

Honestly if you demoed other gear you would definately know how their high end stuff rides compared to others. Fairly sure in an old post of yours I read a while back you were getting a vapor. Why?

Oh and for the record I bag on any lame ass print, much like this one from Oakley.

You are a joke, thinking you know other people, that you have a right to decide what others should spend their money on. Again, get over yourself, your hardcore posing is so fu cking lame.

I have size 13 feet, I ride wide boards, it restricts what is available.

Sure all boards ride differently, my favorite board, the Burton BMC, rides completely differently to a Burton Dragon, same year, same Dragonfly core technology, but completely different feel. And these ride differently to the BaronES I'll be using this year, again with the Dragonfly core.

The Vapor was not available in a wide version last year, so I will not have a chance to demo it until August, when our demo days are on here.

Like I said, all boards ride differently, but I can not tell from riding them that other companies high end boards are vastly superior to Burton's high end boards, each has a different feel, but nothing that blows me away.

My choice of Vapor as a future board purchase is based on wanting the lightest possible board to snowshoe into the backcountry with, carrying tent/food/sleeping gear/etc along with a board on my pack.

If I don't like how it rides, I will not buy it. Maybe I'll buy a split board instead. Who knows, but it's my choice, not yours. So if I want to spend 900 dollars on a piece of aluminium, I will, what business of yours is it?

If I wanted to pose, I wouldn't come on here (or anywhere) and admit to riding all Burton, I know that it has no cred, why would I say that to try and pose?

You're just a hater, that wants to show how core you are by hating on Burton in public, that's posing.

Whilst not a fan of Burton hardgoods, I will say that their AK is fantastic. I've been sporting their AK 3L pants and jacket since the 04/05 season and even with almost 300 days it's still like new (only exception being the fraying on the pants where the edges of my board has done a number, but that's cosmetic). Never had a problem with the zippers and just bought a new AK 2L jacket a couple months ago. I also have the AK Gore Gloves which are also fantastic.

Burton head to toe, with a little airblaster, grenade spacecraft, and dakine thrown in. I don't care what you think.

in two years, maybe even this coming season, the homogeneous pants/jacket combo is going to be the new neon one-piece. it looks like you're wearing an old man's jumpsuit, but flashier.
lol
my dad wears neon snowsuits
thats when i go to the park for the rest of the day

i have a whole family of friends who ride burton stuff head to toe. never seen them on anything else. they even named their dog burton. I love them and all but christ expand your horizons. its a bit overkill.

Fact is their prints for next year are gay, their boards are gay, their whole line up is a pile of crap.

Haha those matching coat and pants are riiiiidddiiiccuulous. I work at a snowboard shop so I can't wait to see next years boards later in the season. I thought this years Un Inc was retarded and the designer should be let go. I wonder what they have in store for next season.

yeah i saw the Un Inc and threw up a little bit in my mouth. Besides the fact that its slipped even further down the line of crappy construction... grip tape? common... seriously?

^but what if i like 20 lbs of snow stuck to the top of my board?

DragonUSMC

i would see where that would be useful in the making of snowcones and other snow delicious treats!




but then again where do you store the flavoring?

^we thought about putting grip tape on a smaller old board and riding around not straped in before.

Working at a shop or somewhere you can get hooked up really can determine what you buy sometimes. Weve got Burton, so I got hooked up. If we had bonfire or foursquare or some other clothing, I'd prob be wearing that.

my dude who owns a local shop carrys burton and i have been gng to him for everything since i was like 6... i get the hook up on my **** waxed buyin all my gear and everything because he knows ill keep coming to him and only him... when i was full time in college he would meet up with me at like 11 at night on a friday so i could drop my gear off and pick it up the next morning waxed and tuned.

i wouldnt let n e one else touch my boards especially my swoard.

I rock the bright orange burton pants,with my underarmor and not ajcket on the warmer days. and u gotta love the gangster white pinstripe wit da fur. lol

personally...i have a proform from burton..so yeah of course im gonna have burton stuff..i do have a full setup..but i also ride atomic and love it...and the only reason why i buy anything burton because i pay a 3rd of the price that everyone else does..

working in a shop does really determine what you get..i agree for sure..burton, volcom, etc...i get such good deals..that i never have to get stuff at regular prices anymore..

dakine gloves for free...level proform..its nice...oakley i get real cheap too..

working in a shop especially when burton is like the main sponsor for it..haha to tell you the truth..i dont push the burton board...i show all the brands to the customer..and then ask hey well what do you think..what do you want more information on.. etc...
