Born as a two years–length project, the Burton Youth Team is aimed to promote snowboard among kids and young people in general. The Team now includes five riders (Marilù Poluzzi, Alex Lotorto, Niccolò Colturi, Pietro Cornacchione e Tommy Demartin) selected for their riding style and good skills.
The goal is to guide and tutor them giving a taste of what being a professional rider really means. Together with the Coach, Jacopo Thomain, Burton Italy study ad-hoc training sessions to better favour the progression of the Team.
They want to maintain snowboard close to new generations by creating an atmosphere of fun and sharing on a professional level.
