#rigletpark

Burton Riglet Park activations have been going off all around New England and the White Flag crew has been there every step of the way. Stratton was our recent stop this past Sunday, where grom's, ages 3 - 6 are hit the park and progressed in only a day. Why? Because the Riglet Park has so much to offer.  Kids can strap in, play on rollers, quarter pipes, drop-ins and slide on boxes. They also can head to a variety of playground options within the Riglet Park if they feel like hanging in the snow. Keep a look out for another Riglet Park activation coming your way!

This weekend (December 22 – 23) our crew headed to Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH for the activation of the Burton Riglet Park and grand opening of the Burton Lil’ Stash Park. The collaboration with Loon Parks on both of these parks really upped the ante for other Riglet and Stash parks on the East Coast. Young kids will not only have creative parks to solidify their young love for snowboarding but will transform the way they learn to snowboard and improve the rate of their progression.

The Burton Riglet Park (with a strong Paul Bunyan theme) ribbon cutting with this past Saturday, Dec. 22. Grom’s came out for the official activation and took it right to the park. While some kids strapped right in and got it going, others played on the snow and slides and were able to strap in when they were ready. There was even a young skier that saw all the fun the Grom’s were having and transferred over that day…her father was nothing but impressed.

“Having a partner like Loon Mountain allows us to continue to evolve resort snowboarding,” said Jeff Boliba, Burton’s VP of Global Resorts. “Loon is always at the forefront of park riding, so we knew it would be a great collaboration.”

On the other side of the mountain, the riders that are a bit older can find their new home in the Lil’ Stash featuring rollers, logs, bonks, and carvings of Paul Bunyan up log and Babe the Blue Ox wall ride. It’s a fun and easy way to develop park and freeriding skills with more challenge. I If you have yet to check these new parks out, head to Loon and tell us what you think!
