Burton really scored with those Team USA Snowboard uniforms. The jackets that look like flannels, the ski pants that look like beat up jeans. Boarder bums personified.

They need to get some of Norway's curling pants to go with the flannel.

So it seems NBC is sticking with the plan of: "Lets show all the US competitors, anyone who medals, and anyone who eats it" for most of these events.

In my previous job I got to meet a couple of the Burton guys who design stuff pretty far out in the future - they hinted Burton had some cool stuff in the works for '10. Great dudes and fun to spend some time with them and while they tried their best to come across as "I could not care less grunge" guys they were really sharp.

Am I the only one that has the urge to run at the whole group with a pair of scissors? Darn long-haired hippies.

I want to see if the Double McTwist 1260 looks as dumb as it sounds :p

I know squat about snowboarding but even a moron like me can tell White is red head and shoulders above the field.
 
Re: Part II of the XXIst Winter Olympiad....and NBC still sucks.

The jackets the american snowboarders are wearing are absolutely solid.

Double McTwist 1260 sounds like it should be some kind of ice cream treat at McDonalds
