OK, watching the 2012 xgames and during mens slopestyle elimination, I see MIkkel Bang riding this board. I now he rides for burton, and the "C" on top leads me to beleive it is a Custom, and I'm assuming it's next years graphics, but I can't find any info on it.
Isn't that Miss Piggy from the Muppets? ![]() |

Thanks.
That's why I love these forums! I remember seeing the Animal board now that you mention it. Wonder what other muppets characters they will have of different sized! LOL!

of course the size I would ride is ms. piggy, couldn't be animal. I like Bang, he's the tallest pro I know of, gives an orge like me hope.

LOL! DAYUM...163 is HUGE. I'd be riding Kermit but I'm looking for a regular cambered deck for jumps and bombing hills that's a little longer, so it would be Animal. HELL YES!
Wonder why they have him on 2 instead of beaker or the sweedish chef...

Okay y'all...from the *original* The Muppets Show, NO Big Bird or Cookie Monster -- they're from Sesame Street.
(Want the character list? Check out the commercial for Google+ with them all in it!) angry -- the 160 board has Dr. Teeth on it -- as in Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem -- the band that Animal played drums for.
They SO totally should've had Beaker instead. Or maybe Fozzy or definitely the Swedish Chef!!!

Yes, LOVE that Dr. Teeth is on one of them. And yes, technically Big Bird and Cookie Monster are "Muppets" but they are from the Sesame Street show and not the Muppet Show.
Oh yeah, and my wife can't stand the Muppets either. Creeps her out. But I think it has something to do with her older sister being obsessed with them and makeing her watch them all the time...

With the C on the top, it looks like the C on my Burton Custom.

Those are so sweet. I might have to get them when they come out.
I love the Gonzo and Animal the best but too bad I need a 160 so it will be Dr Teeth. Anyone know how the flex is on the restricted custom?

i wonder if this is all part of some campaign for the muppets, considering their recent movie release. are they trying to make money to buy back their studio?

Yeah...I'd like to see what their ad campaign for this line will be. Not sure how spot on the snowboarding demographic is for the muppets...
That being said, I have taken my kids with my to pick out boards before, narrowing it down to 3 and then letting them pick by graphic. They would pick any of these hands down! |

My kids watch and LOOOOOVE the muppets at 3 and 5. I love the muppets and they love the old shows and movies. We rented the shows from the library, and it's fantastic.
I was appaled that a few people were suggesting a cookie monster and big bird board. Although, they are muppets, they aren't from the muppet show.
I would love to get one of them when they come out. I would ride the Animal board and somehow it would just fit. Bummer it doesn't come in kids' sizes. It'd be sweet for my kids to be riding those boards!
