I see Billabong has bought Sector 9 Skateboards. Billabong also owns Element, Von Zipper, and Nixon Watches.

*sigh* burton will soon own all things boarding.

still not sure how i feel about it... but hey, i think we've all had the is burton good or bad discussion a few too many times. So for better or for worse, I'll just leave it at they're becoming the Microsoft of board sports, soon you'll have to try REAL hard to do a board sport without some sort of burton gear involved, i have a feeling...
