I guess the contract was up, I'm surprised K2 didn't sign him for outerwear and optics.

"My dad's first day back on skis since his knee replacement! -ep"

No mention of throwback. Also the skis on the right are the current bacons.

So I'm claiming to have posted this weeks ago when EP posted a pic of some October shred with his dog. He was totally rocking some Figments and Anon Optics commented on his post, which was later removed. Either he doesn't have a sponsor for goggles and be prefers Anon, or he is back on the program with them. I'm guessing it's the later.

Funny how less than 10 years ago Anon (along with R.E.D.) dropped all their skiers so Burton could be solely snowboarding based. Even going as far as telling employees in sales meetings that skiers were essentially enemies. Pretty surprising that Pollard of all people would jump ship to be apart of the Anon program, I guess money talks.

maybe burton realised it wasnt the 90s anymore and acctually real riders dont discriminate people over the way they stand when they slide down hills.

They were called the Fall Line I believe. I am a bit surprised that his dad can't be hooked up with a more recent pro model. I'd be bummed if I were him over it.

I hope its true, I can feel less of a tool when I wear my Anon goggs if they don't hate skiers any more.

very much doubt that, that was the thought process. More like the freeskiing is big and here to stay. Burton realise that the anti-skiing thing is cutting off half of the snowsports market.

Yeah i didnt truly believe in what i said. A company like burton probably make decisions almost purely on profit or possible profit. Which you cant fault in a business, as thats what its all about in the end of the day
