Burton LTR Snowboard School

Burton Learn To Ride is a program dedicated to the promotion of snowboarding and was initiated in 1998 by Burton Snowboards in collaboration with snowboarding schools around the world, showing that snowboarding can be learned with pleasure and ease. The main goal of this program is to offer beginners a happy first experience, with the right equipment and specialized instructors, so that they get a taste of this sport and return to the slopes as soon as possible.Experienced riders have the chance to advance in freestyle snowboarding, boardercross or freeride / backcountry through the Learn To Ride program. To learn the basic movements in snowboarding, Burton Snowboards provides special equipment dedicated to the beginners enrrollled in the Learn To Ride program. For example, the boards have a special construction, with a wider sidecut than a regular board for easier turning, and also less sharp edges for a smoother descent for beginners. The girls’ equipment is different than for boys, better adapted to the female anatomy.
