Burton – It’s Always Snowing Somewhere

October 6, 2008 @ 6:24 pm

This past August, Burton released a dual-disc DVD movie featuring their worldwide team of snowboarders. And just like everything they produce, the Burton snowboarding movie, entitled “It’s Always Snowing Somewhere”, is absolutely fantastic and visually captivating.

I received a copy of the DVD feature recently and I really enjoy watching it. It’s got incredibly great music and the movie takes you to places on this earth that you would probably never get to see or visit. I’m so jealous of the Burton team for being able to go to these places and carve these mountains, all while saying that it’s all in a day’s work.

“It’s Always Snowing Somewhere” stars Shaun White, Terje Haakonsen, Gigi Rüf, JP Solberg, Heikki Sorsa, Nicolas Müller, Tadashi Fuse, Frederik Kalbermatten, Jeremy Jones, Jussi Oksanen, Tadashi Fuse, DCP, Mads Jonsson, Trevor Andrew, Keegan Valaika, Kevin Pearce, Danny Davis, Kazuhiro Kokubo, Mikkel Bang, Mikey Rencz, Peetu Piiroinen, and the Smalls Team.

Kidrobot x Burton = ugliest thing on the slopes

Have you all seen the Kidrobot and Burton clothing collaboration? It’s hideous.

Let me break it down for you. The set at the top, called Toy Pile Up, is just about the most obnoxious thing you can wear while snowboarding down the mountain. Nothing says Hey, look at me with my money and terrible taste in fashion than putting on this jacket and pants combination.

And this purple Robot Head getup…
Wow, I don’t even know what to say. Modern Prince on the slopes? And don’t think that that comparison to Prince is a good thing. What better way to scream I’M GGGGGGAAAAAAAYYYYY from the mountain tops, eh?

At least with these on, you’ll be sure to have people steer clear of you while you do your thing on the mountain. I guess that’s a good thing…sorta.
