Last week Burton revealed it’s new R&D facility, “Craig’s” after the late Craig Kelly. This place is crazy! With over 10,000 square feet of Prototyping, you know there is some crazy shit going down in there. The facility will allow Burton and it’s Pro Riders to come up with new ideas, shapes and board constructions, pushing the limits of what snowboarding is today. From building new boards in a matter of hours to building new binding parts overnight, this place will shape the future of snowboarding gear. You can follow “Craig’s Trail” and watch the building process while receiving an education on the history of Craig Kelly. The trail will lead you through the entire factory and through The Barn, which pays homage to the history of Burton. Craig’s will be open to the public for scheduled tours in the near future, so if you are in Burlington, swing over to 152 Industrial Parkway and check this place out!! Here is little teaser video Burton put together for all of you who can’t make it to Burlington.
