In other news, Burton takes incoming fire from left-wing PC movement regarding their "degrading" women in T minus 3,2,1,.......

Odd timing considering Playboy is apparently getting rid of nudity.

I mean, I only ever looked at it for the articles, so it's no big deal for me. ;)

Not sure this is any big deal - its not like they are showing anything. Would definitely feel like a total tool riding one of these....

I remember another company made some smutty decks back in the day. Can't remember the brand or the line of boards off the top of my head though...

...Yup

These snowboards might have been cool back in 1978... Oh, wait... they wouldn't have been cool even back then.

Does anyone care one bit about Playboy anymore? Talk about a brand whose time has come and gone.

My friend had one of the older Love boards and wasn't able to ride at some mountains.
