“It’s a bigger community now. It’s not like the old days, when it was just a handful of people fight- ing the ski mountains to get on the lifts. I think their attitude needs to change, and they need to show more respect to the community as a whole.”Jeff Sprenger of Burlington, Vt., founder of a grassroots campaign to remove Burton’s new Love snowboard line from the market. The collaboration with Playboy features four boards decorated with images of naked women.”I think it’s kind of nice to see that certain edge in snowboarding, you know? It’s kind of where the roots of snowboarding have always been.”Ian Singleton, manager of the Darkside snowboard shop in Stowe, Vt., which carries the boards, along with matching boots, pants and jacket.Source: WCAX-TV, Burlington
