Interesting note, the bindings (straps really) were not adjustable. You had to order the regular or goofy foot version. The scan is not perfect but the print in the issue this was taken from looks bad in person too.

We’ve been making Snow Surfers for ourselves for over ten years When it became clear that the desire to surf the snow stretched out beyond the back hills of Vermont, we developed the Burton Board”*. A Snow Surfer™” that embodies years of product design backed by thorough testing on both local hills and groomed slopes in New England, Utah, California and Austria.
With its adjustable step-in bindings the Burton Board™ will accommodate most any shoe from the smallest of sneakers to the biggest of snowmobile boots. Its twin aluminum skegs enable the board to carve in packed snow, slush, bumps, and, of course, powder. If you have had any experience water skiing, snow skiing, surfing, or skateboarding, the Burton Board will be a cinch to ride.
Available in left (preferred) or right foot forward (as pictured), the Burton Board’ will give you more fun in the snow than anything you’ve ever tried and it won’t put a dent in your wallet. All you need besides the board is a hill and some snow.
