click on "Cores" & "Glass," then find your particular tech info from each list.

basically, it's just Burton's fancy-schmancy nomenclature for the various types of wood (typically) cores & fiberglass laminates. all companies do it for every component & material of their products.

just know you're set-up is light as f***... if ya smell what the boardoholic is cookin'! *raises eyebrow & throws mic to floor as i walk away*

Gratz on the new board! I just scored a never ridden '03 Vision board & 07 Cartels and can't wait to try it out.

Yaba, I'm game to head up whenever u have room. Be more than happy to help w/ gas,food,beer...

Any ways, I read that new boards often have a crappy base wax & that most should be hot waxed. BUT Borton is higher end and maybe your already set!

I believe you should have received a coupon for free board service at Any Mountain on the same sheet that you received your free lift ticket.
