Personally, I watched EL a long time but without writting. To be honest at first more because of these early gear updates. But more and more it became a home of snowboarding nerdiness for me. My real life riding friends unfortunately don’t have these techi passion. They ride great but have offten not really a glue why and what snowbard tech has something to do with it. Or hate just Burton in general and bla bla bla. A lot of alchol without knowledge.
So more and more EL is my home to find a community with you guys, so I decided to post also.
In my opinion also the register entry questions aboit core snowboarding are great as barrier to have only snowboarders here.
Thank you all and nice Christmas

I think this is a typo, but I also think I completely agree with you. :lol:

Happy holidays!

Damn, I was just looking for that page. Looking for a pair of Ion leathers from 2 years ago.

Bummer. I noticed that passalong and rentals both disappeared.

Did they explain why? I was hoping the rental site would come back after a great experience preseason with it.

In October, I was able to outfit a bunch of friends on cheap step on demo setups through rentals.burton.com used gear from last season. I think I got 12 friends in StepOn gear for the low entry price of ~$170 for Photons/Felix boots and a pair of reflex bindings. Killer deal and made a lot of people super happy. For anyone curious, two ended up going back to straps (so far) and it was for boot fit issues. Everyone else is amped.

Does anyone happen to have any of the old Burton catalogs archived? Like 2011-2018
I am looking specifically for the boards catalog of 2012,13,14,15,16,17, and 18
Thank you!

For those of you with a Gril Master, how are you setting it up in relation to the reference stance? I havent set mine up yet, but I know theres been a few B boards that ride "better" by ignoring the reference points.
