Devils Night Rail Jam!!!

TRON

New Burton Raptor--Tron Edition

"How do you make the lightest weight Burton men's boot even better? First, concentrate power by placing the added heel hold of Speed Zone at the sweet spot around your ankle. Then, make it easy to fine-tune the fit of all three zones by strategically placing power straps at the forefoot and upper cuff. Finally, bring it together with an Articulating Cuff for fluid flex and added tweak. The results is the NEW Raptor--an ultra-light boot with the latest in comfort and lacing performance." Burton.com

WayBack Wednesday..Jake Burton

Born Jake Burton Carpenter (he took his middle name as his last after college) was born on April 29[supth, 1954 in New York City.

 Burton had received a Snurfer, the precursor to the modern snowboard, for Christmas in 1968.According  to his bio from the Burton Snowboards website, he "immediately identified with the concept [of riding] in comfortable footwear this time and not holding onto ski poles." After graduating from NYU with a degree in economics, Burton moved to Londonderry, Vermont in 1977 to start Burton Snowboards. The company sold 300 boards (designed around a modified Snurfer with bindings) the first year - not nearly enough to pay the bills. One year later, having sold a total of 1,000 boards, he had exhausted his $100,000 inheritance.

Burton realized he needed to convince ski resorts to let snowboarders on their slopes in order to grow his business. His major break came when Stratton Mountain Resort agreed to allow snowboarders on its slopes. With sales increasing, Burton and his future wife Donna flew to Europe to find a ski factor to produce his snowboards. "The dollar was incredibly strong at the time, so it was very cheap to get stuff made over there," Burton said, referring to Austria.1 In 1983, Burton held the first National Snowboarding Championships at Snow Valley, Vermont, an event that would eventually come to be known as the U.S. Open.

With the sport of snowboarding having gained mainstream acceptance and a spot in the Winter Olympics, Burton today spends over 100 days on snow each season. Burton Snowboards remains a privately held company, with Burton himself acting as the driving force. He also plays an influential role in Chill the company's charitable foundation that teaches at-risk youth to snowboard. He can frequently be found walking amongst the crowd at the U.S. Open of Snowboarding - an average guy with anything but an average legacy. Jake if it wasn't for what you've done many many people would not be on a snowboard and would not know what an amazing sport it is and that is why we salute you Jake.

WayBack Wednesday..Craig Kelly!

Craig Kelly

DOB: 4/1/1966

This weeks WayBack Wednesday is going to the
one and only Craig Kelly!

Home Mountain: Mt. Baker, WA

Stance: Regular

“He is the perfect example of doing what you’ve gotta do ’til you can do what you want to do!”

-Mike Ranquet

In the eighties, Craig Kelly didn’t just help snowboarding grow; he helped it grow up. Before Craig, being a snowboard pro was a part-time job. Kelly took the initiative to train more than the competition and market himself in a manner that made him highly sought after for endorsements. With this newfound acclaim and fame came never-before-seen professional responsibilities. This, in turn, led to a “careful what you wish for” scenario, where Craig found himself in the middle of a highly-publicized legal battle between the Hatfields and McCoys of snowboarding, Sims and Burton. The dispute was over which brand Craig was legally obligated to represent. A landmark court decision forced Kelly to ride for one year void of any company’s logos. When Craig emerged from his court-imposed sponsorship exile, his compensation came in the form of the Burton Mystery Air, a giant leap forward in board design. Utilizing a specialized flex profile, quadratic sidecut, and more user-friendly stance options, the Mystery Air made every rider who rode one better for it. The added control accelerated resort acceptance, and gave Craig another level of connection to his growing fan base.

On the Mystery Air, Craig took home countless World Cup, World Championship, and US Open titles. Kelly also spearheaded snowboarding’s biopic movement with Adventurescope’s The Smooth Groove in 1989, a full seven years before Subjekt Haakonsen! Craig continued his foray into film by appearing in Snow Shredders, Chill, Board with the World, Scream of Consciousness, Fear of a Flat Planet, and numerous other high-profile projects. By the time snowboarding hit the mainstream, Craig was hitting the backcountry full-time far from the media spotlight, opting to earn his turns by hiking peaks instead of hawking products, helping found Island Lake Lodge in the process. As the new millennium emerged, Craig was actively seeking out another backcountry refuge with perfect terrain and an ideal snowpack—a place where he could share his ideals with a select clientele. He found this utopia in Nelson, BC’s Baldface Lodge.

It was while working towards guide certification that Craig was taken from snowboarding in an avalanche. To most people who find harmony while descending a slope sideways, this was the day the music died. No other person in the history of snowboarding has meant as much to as many people as Craig Kelly.

We at Cutting Edge salute Craig Kelly for everything that he did for our industry.

Way Back Wednesday!!

Kevin Michael "GG" Allin (August 29, 1956 – June 28, 1993) was an American punk rock singer and songwriter who performed and recorded with many punk groups during his career. GG Allin is perhaps best remembered for his notorious live performances which typically featured transgressive acts, such as Allin defecating and urinating onstage, rolling in feces and often performing naked, committing self injury, and attacking audience members. Although more notorious for his stage antics than for his music, he recorded prolifically, not only in the punk rock genre, but also in spoken word, country, and more traditional-style rock. Though he had a devoted cult following, Allin's music was often poorly recorded and produced, and received mostly negative reviews from critics. However, his status as a cult figure is such that a number of established artists have covered his songs; among them are , the 69 Eyes, Beck, Bus Station Loonies, The Lemonheads and Chemical People. GG is most likely one of the craziest people to ever walk to earth and because of that we salute him
