How do you support a habit?
If you habits include cliff drops with the Wildcats in Canada, massive jumps built in Scandinavia, or first descents in Alaska it helps to have a support of 8.  Tadashi Fuse, Mads Jonnson and Jussi Oksanen have been the primary developers of the Burton Ion boot for two years running and have made a fast entry, ready to fire, supportive boot capable of every condition put through.
Because of the demanding climates and features in each of their video parts this season, including the latest Process Video; they are all literally putting their best foot forward.  This season, the Ion is lighter, smarter and more comfortable, if that were possible? The speed zone is almost enough of a selling feature to be used on any snowboard boot moving forward.  The last quicker in the boots, the less time one-foot hopping in the parking lot during a blizzard the better.  The support I have been speaking of helps in all conditions, especially back country riding.  The terrain park will have to wait a few weeks to get the comfort pounded in and the boots a little more relaxed for the steezy laybacks that are all together more popular at the moment.
Trust my judgment, but if the riders mentioned above don’t satisfy your fix, walk into any retail shop and listen to the employees tell you the details to get you hooked.

You’ve got to keep your dome protected these days.  With icy superpipes, mega booters, and tree runs all it takes is a slight mis-judgement and you could crack that thing wide open. So, if you would like to retain higher level brain functions then you need a quality helmet to keep covered.  Check out the Smith Premise Helmet.

Designed and ridden true, the CO2 is what NASA would come up with if they were in the business of shredding.

The invention of the zipper revolutionized the clothing industry and brought about changes that have never been improved upon since.

 Such is the case with the Speed lacing system or Speed Zone that is the primary feature of the Ion.  Just like pulling on your pants in the morning, pulling two zone cords tightens up the entire boot from heel to toe.
