WOW!
I'm 57 and have been riding since 1989.
Being one of the first two snowboard instructors hired at Mount Snow, West Dover, Vermont I have ridden Burton exclusively my whole life. You get older and life gets in the way so I haven't been able to ride as much like I used to. I couldn't justify buying new equipment so my last purchase was 20 years ago. My kids are in their 20's and wanted dad to "put up or shut up" after hearing all my stories and looking at old pics so I decided it was time. I researched many manufacturers but always new Burton would be the one I'd go with. I came across Endeavor being "sister' to Burton and saw that the channel design was being used and came across a great deal on your site that I couldn't pass up. Not only did I get the Pioneer Bensen I also got an amazing deal on a jacket and pants!
Let me say that on my first run on cord I felt like I was 25 again! This board was very responsive and popped me from edge to edge effortlessly. I can't believe how technology has progressed so far since my last board.
As for the pants I didn't ever think I would find full side zips since my old yellow Burton padded knee pants! So warm and plenty of room. Sub zero day and only a pair of flannel pajama pants on underneath.
The only thing I would change about the jacket and pants is the pocket zipper should close in the up position with a small patch of velcro to keep the zipper from moving down.
All in all you have a new rider and with the family growing you will have at least 4 more soon.
Thanks!
