Burton's made some weird decisions lately. They decided not to re-sign contracts with some of the best riders around. I don't want to enter in a polemic against Burton, but I have to say that I agree with Jim "JMZ" Zbinden: "Burton has lost it's original core philisophy, now they're only in it for profit, killing the team and projects like Un-Inc is gonna send them to the grave..."

Totino\'s Field Notes

Totino's Field Notes

Totino's Field Notes - Road to the 2010 US Open of Snowboarding. It's been an interesting year for Totino's team riders Danny Davis and Mason Aguirre. After starting strong in the Fall and early season, with great contest results at the Totino's Open in Breckenridge, both riders suffered injuries. Danny is out for the year, but Mason recently came back and plans to throw down at next week's US Open of Snowboarding in Stratton, VT.
