Making/Selling Snowboards
Friday I spent the afternoon at Burton's factory in South Burlington. We were shooting an ad with Kevin making his own board. I had not been to the factory in about seven years. What really stuck with me, was how labor intensive it is to make a board. With all the high tech manufacturing equipment there, it still takes a ton of hand work by a single person. These boards truly are "handmade". I'll have a new appreciation when I make my first turn next year.
