In 1977, Jake Burton Carpenter founded Burton Snowboards out of his Vermont barn and dedicated the rest of his life to snowboarding. He was our founder, the soul of snowboarding, the one who gave us the sport we all love so much.
Since its founding, Burton has helped grow snowboarding from a backyard hobby into a world-class sport—creating groundbreaking products, supporting top riders, and pushing resorts to embrace the sport. Today, Burton designs and manufactures industry-leading products for snowboarding and the outdoors. A sustainability leader, it is the world’s first snowboard company to become a certified B Corporation®. Privately held and owned by Donna Carpenter, Burton is headquartered in Burlington, Vermont, with offices in Austria, Japan, Australia, Canada, and China.
