Jake Burton
Hello. π I am currently writing our Elf profile for Jake Burton, Vermont legend and snowboarding pioneer, who helped make the sport an Olympic one! βοΈπππ π₯π
I met Jake when I was 20 and first tried snowboarding at Sugarbush and just fell down the mountain. I loved it and came to Stowe the next day to repeat the feat! : D I met Jake that morning and he was so friendly, welcoming and down to earth.
I wish I could have shown him my ski and snowboard app that I am creating at Elf. Itβs a labor of love and involves our core team in the best way! I would have loved to have seen him test it out, hear what he thought about it and just seen that big smile again.
Thanks for everything Jake and showing us how to live by doing what you love best. β€οΈ
Hereβs to more doing what you love!
Thank you,
Jan
