Burton probably - though there is a 50/50 split really as some people see them as the main driving force in snowboarding
others see them as corporate whores!!!
they are one of the few companies that get their snowboards made..most buy generic boards in from asia..I think Ride do that though dont sue me as not 100% sure..just a rumour I heard  |

| Burton. They ARE the first company that any snowboarder hears about. They have the best gear. It is cool to be seen in/with burton stuff. They have the best website. There is nothing more to say on the subject. |
