The top graphic incorporates the iconic "Kidrobot head" graphic in all-over print manner while the underside graphic is a collage of some of Kidrobot’s most popular characters such as the Dunny, Smorking Labbit and Icebot. A list of artists also made appearances on the graphics such as Paul Budnitz, Frank Kozik, Dalek, Tilt and Sket One among others.
The snowboard will be available in extremely limited quantities at Burton and Kidrobot flagship stores as well as select snowboard retailers. Be on the look out for more collaborative efforts in the future from these two giants.
