10. The Ride DH
Understated top sheet design, but the base is loud and proud.
9. The Burton Feather
Women’s snowboards are often very girly, but this year’s Feather strikes a great balance.
8. The Roxy Ollie Pop
The colours on this year’s Ollie pop literally just pop out at you, a graphic design achievement.
7. The Lib Tech Jamie Lynn range
Not just this board but artworks by the artist/ex pro snowboard are painting master pieces.
6. The Burton Blender
Another women’s snowboard in the top 10. This is from the 2008/2009 season and really has a great stand out design to get you noticed in any snowboard park.
5. Bataleon Snowboards
This is just one example of a Bataleon snowboard that has a base design that looks like it is glowing on the snow. It’s like lights under a max power car, but in a good way.
4. Rome Agent Snowboard
The top sheet design has my little ponies on, need we say more?
3. Burton Vapour Snowboard
The slash in the top sheet revealing a vibrant graphic underneath suggests there is something special about this board, which there is. The Burton Vapour is one of the lightest boards ever made, but also one of the most expensive also!
2. GNU Park Pickle Snowboard
Some snowboard graphics in this top 10 are graphic design achievements or artistic master pieces. Then we have the out there designs, the Park Pickle falls under the later, it has a huge Pickle on it. Why? Why not?
1. Burton Love series Snowboards

Our No.1 isn’t a amazing graphic design or an artistic wonder. It’s our number 1 snowboard design because of the sheer controversy they caused. They have images of Play Boy bunnies on, the uproar was so much that one ski resort in the US banned them!
