This Burton Backhill snowboard is in great condition.  This "patent pending" wood snowboard is handmade in Vermont and has its own registration number. This particular board has a crack in the binding.

Below is the text from the original 1979-80 winter season Burton Boards brochure.       

The Backhill model is the ideal all-around board.  Adjustable bindings facilitate learning the sport and enable the rider to handle difficult terrain and aerials.  A great board in deep powder, yet equally capable in slushy bumps and packed snow.
