STATE OF THE MOUNTAIN : POACH FOR FREEDOM

Since the release of our Poachers web story on burton.com, several people have contacted Burton complaining of our actions. While I fully respect their prerogative to voice their opinion, they should in return grant us the same courtesy. We have been snowboarding at major resorts for well over 20 years now and in the process, we have demonstrated our sport to be for real, and of no threat to society. The fact is that two of the four resorts operate on federal forest land, which makes this issue even more frustrating since the taxes of many snowboarders help finance these resorts. I'm confident that if these four resorts outlawed skiing tomorrow, there would be a protest long before 20 years passed, and rightfully so. I want to add that we have been careful not to break any laws, nor to encourage anyone to break any laws (see the Poaching 10 Commandments on burton.com/poachers) in our efforts to liberate these mountains. If you have spent as much time in the mountains as I have, you would know that every mountain has a personality, and while they can be brutally cruel at times, discrimination is not in their DNA.

The Balcony Session

The Balcony Session


Tel son nom l’indiquait, le Balcony Session au Ultimate était

réellement un setup sur un balcon. Un paquet de riders se motivaient
les uns les autres pour rider le gros tuyau de métal placé en descente du
balcon de la boutique imposante de Granby.

La compétition était sous un format ’’battle’’. Les riders s’affrontaient 1
contre 1 pour avancer à la prochaine ronde et contre un nouvel adversaire
jusqu’à la finale des 2 riders restant. C’est Fred Lacroix, de Sherbrooke,
qui a mis la main sur les 2000$ de bourse contre Simon Cantin,
mais celui-ci ne lui a pas rendu la vie facile avec ses combos mortels.

Même une fois la compétition terminée, les participants en voulaient
encore. Ils continuaient à rider le setup en se ’’claquant ’’ plein de
trucks tech et smooth sur le gros tuyau. Preuve que les snowboarders
au Québec en mangent du snowboard!
