Honeyee has released a new feature, an interview between the people of FYI and Hiroshi Fujiwara. FYI develops the Burton AK collection and Hiroshi Fujiwara is in charge of the iDiom line. They talk about the difference of the two lines and how the AK line is about function and technology versus iDiom being about function and fashion.

Burton Flagship Stores have a treat for all the New Yorkers out there. The New York Store will be hosting a series of day trips up to the slopes in Hunter Mountain, NY. There are deeply discounted lift tickets available for only $25 and only $25 bus fare up there. That is a whole day of snowboarding for only $50! The trips run from January through March on Saturdays and can be booked at www.urbansherpa.biz or by calling Burton’s Hotline at 917.692.5222.

It’s fun and not that expensive, maybe worth considering!

Burton has worked on another collaboration this winter season. The Alife NYC x Burton is based on the Burton 09 Custom board, but comes with a Sintered Base. The board comes in two sizes – 158cm and 162 cm. The board will not be sold at regular retailers; it will be available at ALIFE flagship and Burton flagship stores globally. It will deliver around Thanksgiving 08 and retail for $619.

As expected from Alife, the snowboard comes with a very clean design, good for today and for years to come. Look out for the release in the near future.

The Burton x Futura Vapor Snowboard that has been first presented months ago, has now finally been released in Burton flagship stores. Featuring a rather simple black upper, it comes with a full on Futura graphic on the bottom with custom Futura Burton signature.

Aside from the board, Futura also got together with Burton on a first layer outfit. It consists of pants and matching top, featuring a multicolor check design by the artist. It is now available at SlamJam.
