I will be working there all summer. They don't do "tours" necessarily, but I'm sure someone would be happy to show you around. Its a busy place, but everybody there is super nice and awesome.

I can't wait for this summer, its going to be so kick ass.

unfortunatly not^^, i was hoping to though. He did say i could give him a call anytime though and just demo next years boards, boots, or bindings, and even ride it until its dead ("they need feedback on how it performed and how well it stayed in tact.") id say thats still a good deal
