It’s been
20 years and we still believe Burton is the best
For technology and quality, we don't think anybody tops Jake Burton and his team. That's why Hickory & Tweed is 100% Burton. Burton’s line includes men, women and youth specific boards. All Burton boards can essentially ride everywhere, although many are designed to excel on specific terrain and snow conditions. Come in and let our snowboard experts find the board that best suits your style. The most versatile boards for Men are the T6, Custom and Custom X with premier wood cores, the Shaun White model for on-snow and stunts and the Vapor, Burton's lightest, most technologically refined, all-terrain board.
For Women, Burton has introduced
two new boards, the Lux for freestyle riding and the Alpha, which
according to Burton is “1 part fun, 2 parts style, and all
parts action”. The Feelgood ES rounds out our picks as this
year's highest performance boards for gals.
As always, you'll find a great selection of boots, bindings and great gear – helmets with headphones for your iPod and MP3 players and Burton's Anon goggles that interface with their helmets. We're psyched to also carry the Burton outerwear, to keep you warm, dry and comfortable – so every run is fun. For those just starting out or still growing, more snowboarding equipment has been added to our Snowboard Lease program. When it comes to tuning and maintaining your equipment, check out our service shop. Hickory & Tweed has the best Wintersteiger equipment with an extra-wide stone for precise snowboard stonegrinding. Remember, you can mount and adjust your bindings using the all-in-one Burton Bullet Tool. Don't wait – come in today and see why Hickory & Tweed is your place for Burton.
