I love the Riglet Parks. Teaching kids that young to board, simply can’t be done in the same way we teach adults.
Skiing can, Boarding can’t. Boarding requires muscle development that most kids that young just don’t have.
So these are a great solution to that.

I agree, this is rad. I’m really stoked on how they encourage kids to enjoy snowboarding from such a young age. I’ll be getting my nephew into this next season. Great initiative by Burton.
