[edit] History

Forum snowboards was first started by Four Star Distribution and pro snowboarder Peter Line in the summer of 1996. On July 15, 2004 Forum was bought by Burton Snowboards.

[edit] Team

[edit] Videos

Forum has been working with Mack Dawg Productions to produce a number of snowboard videos including The Resistance, True Life, Video Gangs, and their most recent video, That. Forum's videos all feature riders of the Forum team.
