As you've discovered in the past with things like card decks and fountain pens, slapping a scantily clad
woman on a product can sometimes lead to less-than-sophisticated results.
But we think Burton has more or less managed to stick the landing, taste-wise, with its latest
release.
Presenting the new Love snowboard from Burton, a legitimate freestyle board that might just garner
as many second glances on the mountain as your stylish ease.
A partnership between Burton and Playboy, the limited-edition board features a design by two leading pros on
Burton's Global Team, Keegan Valaika and Mikkel Bang. Each of the four board sizes corresponds to a
different minimally clothed beauty: 152s, for example, get a brunette with a fondness for polo, while 162s
get a leggy blonde who seems to have misplaced her shorts.
As far as features a little more functional, all the ladies come with twin tips and park edges to help with
handling, a low-maintenance base to deal with rail knocks and a mellow flex for a soft, controlled
ride.
We'll just go ahead and put our fist in our mouth now.
