maybe smith owns Von Zipper but im still really angry that VZ just came out with a goggle called the Feenom and it looks just like he "phenom" by smith. which is a very sick goggle by the way. any one know if VZ is a bitch, mooch company or if smith owns VZ?

Dude, you are an idiot. If they don't care, why should you care? 

Also, how would you eve know who came up with the idea first? What if smith made the Phenom after VZ's Feenom?

Never thought of that now did you?

easy man. What if Smith released the Phenom at the 2006 SIA trade show? They did. I could only hope that VZ would change their name, seems like plenty of time to do so. I don't really care. But they should. Either way I wish both companies luck.

Yea, but what I am saying is that VZ was probably at teh SIA too... therefore both companies probably knew what was going on, and both companies decided it didn't matter.

Also what I am argueing is that how do we know wether SMith made the Phenom first or VZ made the Feenom first?

ya, fuck von zipper, they're biting steez! here's my theory: someone designed a phenom goggle, and both companies bought the design, but von zipper spelled it like tards. they're stupid for even releasing a similar goggle! makes them look mucho lame-o. Smith for life baby

Just because Burton owns VZ does not mean that Burton does everything for them. It usually just means the a differnt person finances and owns the company but is run by the original employees as a subsidary company under Burton.

But yeah, I actually like the VZ colorways and design a little better.
