Burton is putting some more love into skateboarding. They have thrown their support behind DNA Distribution who owns Alien Workshop, Habitat and Reflex bearings. I am stoked to hear this announcement because for my first few years of skateboarding, all I rode was super thin AWS boards… With my massive, fat, white shoes, my gangsta red, Ecko beater and 40″ jeans (those that have seen me know how hilarious this is – I am the skinniest man alive). Still, I’m glad to see Alien get some support for nostalgic reasons if nothing else. Peep the full announcement here.
