The Challenge
Building the world’s greatest snowboard event. The Burton U.S. Open Snowboarding Championships, is steeped in history and regarded as snowboarding’s most esteemed contest. With its roots in Stratton, VT, the Burton U.S. Open made the move to Vail, CO in 2013 and has since flourished into the most polished – yet still irreverent – display of snowboarding and lifestyle. Burton entrusts us to plan and execute operations, on and off-hill.
