    My first few boards were Burtons going back to the Free5 in the early 90's. I think back then they were pretty much your only choice for quality boards. Now a days a lot of smaller board companies make just as good of product without being "run of the mill".
    My last 2 boards were an Arbor and now a Nitro.
    I certainly don't hate Burton ( I actually have a B hat on right now) and they're still a "private" company and everyone I've ever know that has met Jake says he's a real cool guy but with all the other options out there I'm not sure I'll ever buy another Burton board until I can afford a Vapor.

    • the vapor is a work of art imo. great tech and screaming fast. love it. stay away from rails tho!prophetone
    • check ebay and find yourself an 08 (like above) or an 09 futura vapor... i've seen em go for reasonable $prophetone
