Zeb Powell's personal rig for super-ultra-sized expression.
Get ready to be shaken to your core with the introduction of the Burton Super Ultra Blossom Snowboard, a masterpiece personally crafted by the snowboarding virtuoso, Zeb Powell. This board is not your average ride; think of it as a frankenstein's creation, engineered to be bigger, bolder, and ridden longer than anything you currently have in your quiver.
This board dares you to redefine boundaries, boasting a 3D base coupled with a distinctive swallowtail that mirror Zeb's own dynamic approach to snowboarding.
Super Sizing the Blossom: Why "Super Ultra"?
Dubbed the Super Ultra Blossom, this board is essentially the amplified brother of the Blossom, Zeb's go-to when he's not in the mood for the avant-garde extremities of a "literal spaceship." The inclusion of the swallowtail and mega sizing is a Zeb Powell signature, bringing to the table not just potential performance enhancements — as is the nature of swallowtails — but primarily, an undeniable cool factor that makes the board stand out.
Available in 3 lengths, a 155cm, 185cm and mega 205cm length true to Zeb's specifications.
A Blend of Art and Performance
Diving deeper into the board's design, the graphics are a visual feast, featuring a custom-made comic strip crafted by the brilliant Khary Randolph, a name synonymous with some of the world's most iconic comic series and a previous collaborator with Burton. The narrative? It draws you into the comic adventures of an everyday guy named Zeb, who stumbles upon a magical sword that bestows upon him extraordinary powers, with the sword's design taking inspiration from the Super Ultra Blossom's unique swallowtail.
Beyond Aesthetics
While it's tempting to get lost in the visually stunning aspects of the Super Ultra Blossom — with its bespoke artwork and unwieldy shape — its true essence lies in its invitation to snowboarders: to express themselves unrestricted on the slopes, to challenge conventions, and to explore the breadth of their capabilities in the great snowy outdoors.
The Burton Super Ultra Blossom by Zeb Powell is a statement, a fusion of performance engineering and artistic expression, and a nod to the limitless potential and creativity.
The Burton Super Ultra Blossom is releasing exclusively in New Zealand from Boardertown Stores nationwide soon. Stay tuned for more details.
