For more than 10 years Burton team riders have shredded the Southern Hemisphere during the summer in the States. Burton riders including Terje Haakonsen, Hannah Teter, Nicolas Muller, and the ubiquitous Shaun White have had there tracks followed and shot by Dean “Blotto” Gray, Jeff Curtes, and Adam Moran as they document there vigerous movements for the publication of 28 Day Winter. The words of Blotto sum up the events perfectly “After completing the month long shoot through Chile, New Zealand and 72 hours on Mt Hood in Oregon, the photography was compiled and we all said, ‘Let’s do this book.’ The title tells just what it was, a 28 day winter.” For anyone trying to start a North vs. South rivalry, Blotto had this to say, “The typical story with shooting snowboarding in the Southern Hemisphere was that of ‘It’s not as good as the terrain in the Northern Hemisphere…only good for catalog shots…not enough snow.’ We’ve never subscribed to this attitude and this book is a testament to that. You’re dealing with the best riders in the world, professional photographers, and terrain that will get you just as hurt as anytime in January or March.”
