Burton Archive Series
(10 January 2008) - Eighties revivalism continues and when done right we enjoy seeing the era reinvented in design, fashion, music, etc. Better yet, a reissue celebrates originals and maybe even better still, adding new details to classics modernizes them for a fresh look with all the functionality we expect out of today's gear. Specifically, we're talking about Burton's new Archive Series Collection, a line that pulls out...

Burton LTD Grail Denim Jacket And Pant
(19 November 2007) - I used to make fun of people who wore denim on the slopes, but Burton recently made it more functional with this first edition Gore-Tex LTD Grail Denim Jacket and Pant.Denim alone is probably the worst thing you could wear in cold and wet conditions, however an exclusive collaboration with Gore-Tex gives Burton the sole rights for two years to use their technology that...

Lifebag
(25 October 2007) - For extreme sports types or those who just like to take every precaution, Swiss company Snowpulse developed Lifebag. Like an airbag, it's designed to protect the head and thorax while keeping you afloat during an avalanche. Manually deployed similar to a parachute, the 150-liter shield inflates in less than three seconds and deflates after 90 seconds. Should you get buried, when the bag deflates...

Paul Smith x Burton Mark XIII
(22 October 2007) - Yes, this really is snowboard gear. I know it looks incredibly traditional, but it's the second limited-edition collaboration between Paul Smith (always one of my favorites) and Burton Snowboards, and has just hit the shops. Last time they got together, in 2005, they came up with navy pinstripe-suit inspired gear straight out of the city. This time, the countryside looks like the starting point...

Burton Chicago Flagship
(20 September 2007) - Burton staked its claim in the Midwest by opening their latest flagship store in Chicago last night with a big ol' Burton-style party. It may seem odd to open a snowboarding store in the flatlands, but Founder and Chairman Jake Burton first competed with a Burton board in Michigan, so the store brings 30 years of Burton full circle. At four stories high in...

Vitamin Living Powder Seat
(08 December 2006) - You chose that board as much for the beautiful graphics as for its ability to carve up powder, right? So this is for those boarders who get really sad when they have to put their board away after getting home from the slopes.

(06 November 2006) - As autumn begins to give way to winter, dreams of mountain riding start to set in.

Freeline Skates
(14 November 2005) - Skateboarding x snowboarding x surfing = Freelining, a new sport invented by Ryan Farrelly that looks totally whack. Freeline skates each have two wheels which are attached to a small aluminum frame with a flat top that has grip tape on top. There are no straps—you ride it like a small skateboard under each foot. Check out these videos, which show you how to...

Burton / R.E.D. Audio HiFi Helmet
(25 November 2004) - This isn't the first snowboarding helmet with built in speakers, but it may be the best so far.

686 Toolbelt
(15 November 2004) - Good design is all about elegant problem solving. In this case, you often need to make an adjustment to your bindings while snowboarding, but carrying a set of tools around isn't always convenient.

Freeboard
(11 November 2004) - Many have tried to create a skateboard that emulates the feeling of a snowboard with varying degrees of success. Though I haven't tried a Freeboard, this video certainly makes it look like the San Francisco based, rider owned company got it right. You can carve, slide, spin and stop using all the same movements as on the slope. Granted, concrete is not as forgiving...
