After the popular Knowbuddy program was cut (well, popular after it got cut), we’ve been wondering what Burton will come up with to push kids through from Riglets to the pro and am teams. The answer is here, in the form of some World War II graffiti: Burton Kilroy.

Well, we know Kilroy as Chad over here in the UK (my Grandad always called him the ‘what no soap?’ man), but the message is clear: Burton is going to be making its stamp on every mountain, pushing through local talent. Luke Zajac, Dru Brownrigg, Takeru Otsuka, Sy Moran, Carter Jarvis, Max Zebe and Luke Winkelmann are just the first, tearing up Mt Hood this summer for this sumptuous, Blotto palette-inspired video feast above. Stay tuned for more.
