Burton and Suzuki are not only teaming up for the Burton European Open 2008 and the Burton AM Tour 2007/08, they have also come up with a fantastic online design contest. The contest website is now live, offering budding designers the chance to design their own board and actually have it made! Not only that, the winning designer will also take home a brand new Suzuki Grand Vitara Freeride car in the design of their winning board graphics.

The contest is part of the Burton Series 13 program which enables consumers to create their own board graphics. All contest submissions will be judged online by the public on a monthly basis, with five monthly winners making it to the finals at the end of the season. The best designs will be judged in the first week of March by a panel consisting of Burton team riders, product managers and Suzuki representatives. The best Series 13 design will receive a Suzuki Grand Vitara Freeride Edition in the design of the winning board graphics as well as his personal Series 13 board!

Taking part is easy: go to the Burton and Suzuki Freeride website and download the template for a board shape, then design your very own board and upload the file.
