BURTON LTR Center

We are offering BURTON LTR (Learn To Ride) program, which BURTON has developed with snowboard instructors all over the world.BURTON LTR is designed for beginners to learn basic skills such as turning or stopping easily and to have fun from the first day snowboard experience.

Learn how to turn in 2 hours !?

We hear many guests saying; “I don’t want to snowboard again because I fell so many times when I first tried it”, “I can’t catch up to my friends who are good already”, “I want to become a good rider quicker”,…etc. We have many beginners who learn how to turn with in 2 to 3 days in the past, but if you do well, you can learn how to turn in two hours using the BURTON LTR program and LTR equipments.

It’s not fun to fall!

This prevents many beginner snowboarders from continuing, but we can help you! The LTR snowboard edges are beveled 3 degrees. This makes it easy to start turning and also helps prevent you from falling because it catches the other edge. We have LTR snowboards for riders from kids to adults. Enjoy snowboarding by learning faster with LTR.

You will become a better rider than you expected with LTR snowboard rentals and NORTHSTAR instructors.
