Tahoe Ski Resort Bans Sexy Snowboards

Tahoe Ski Resort Bans Sexy Snowboards
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE (CBS/AP) ― Several Colorado ski resorts and a Tahoe resort are protesting Burton's two controversial new snowboards, which feature images of Playboy models and cartoons of self-mutilation.

Vail Resorts, which owns Vail, Breckenridge Ski Resort, Beaver Creek Resort, Keystone Ski Resort in Colorado, plus California's Heavenly Mountain Resort, has barred workers from using the so-called Love boards, or any other inappropriate, offensive or suggestive equipment while on duty.

The boards drew protests last week in front of the Burton Snowboards in Vermont, calling for the company to pull the boards from the market.

Burton stands by the limited edition boards, saying it supports freedom of artistic expression.

The company produced 1,000 Love boards and less than 1,000 Primo boards for the 2009 line, and said it expects the boards to become collector's items -- rarely seen on the slopes.

Seems reasonable to me, it sounds like only the workers are not allowed to use them. Tahoe resorts are a family environment.

thats retarded, you can see the same thing on TV and its not at all considered art....

ive seen the boards........they are so low key..........it looks like ever other magazine ad i have to look at......

at least its marketed to snowboardings and hippies instead of young women like all the other **** on tv.......

all i can say is this just reinforces how ghey and full of tools heavenly is.....

it's like traffic in la trying to ride there.

LOL thats like knocking on Charles Manson's door at midnight. Of course nobody has complained to you, they know the type of person that would actually want that on their board has a few screws loose!

Lawl...that makes sense..I really did not give 2 f***s when I was a kid (High School).

I would do all kinds of stupid **** just to do it; hell on multiple occasions (when children weren't present) I would just spark up a bowl on the lifts or at the lodges...
