Burton really doesnt do shit in Vermont these days. I think they have a small office there still, but pretty much everything has been shipped off shore or elsewhere.
Burton is a worldwide company these days, I wouldnt put up with the bullshit of VT for as long as they did in the first place (in a business sense).

Not a small office. Still a few hundred employees. That's a significantly large employer in the State of Vermont.

Guess I'll be able to get some pics of the US Open then, since the week that it will be in Vail is the week that I just booked to head out there last week
Interesting. Word out here when the manufacturing was shipped out was that it was well below that number.
But the notion that they are a "vermont" company and therefor should hold the US Open there just doesnt apply IMO given their size and scope. I'd be surprised if the majority of their customers even know they are from VT in the first place.
I too just booked flights for that week in Colorado and was planning on being in Vail. Do I want to be around that event or will it clog up the slopes and town with teenage riff raff? Southwest is easy to switch flights.
Vail is big you will be fine. besides you want to ski in the back bowls and blue sky basin anyways. you can ski "trails" back east...

I spent a couple years in CO; I'll head straight to the bowls and blue sky. But will the event bring a rowdier crowd? What was it like at Stratton?
Like Bike Week in New Hampshire? :lol:
