Burton Snowboards | A Day For Jake

Free lift tickets to honour the late, great Jake Burton

The snowboard world was rocked last year when Burton announced the passing of their fearless leader Jake Burton Carpenter. From his days moonlighting making snowboards in Vermont to captaining the biggest ship in the industry, Jake passionately championed the sport, steadfastly supported the underdog and continuously provided the stoke.

“The first annual ‘A Day for Jake’ will be held on Friday 13th March 2020 to bring together the snowboard community”
