Shayboarder posted up this info on her blog: Now Taos Has Allowed snowboarding on their mountain.
It looks like Burton Snowboards can claim success on this one. Only recently began an ad campaign led by Burton to get all 4 blacklist resorts to Open Up. see $5000 prize for Poaching the Mountain" So suddenly Taos has declared that they will now open to snowboarders. The snowboarders and Jake Burton both get a victory. It looks like Burton really made a difference. They post a poaching Taos video where the snowboarders get roughed up simply for snowsliding down a mountain on one board instead of two. And it leads to Taos opening the mountin to snowboarders, yeah!
So Burton's marketing team can pat themselves on the back, cause this announcement will only cause great sales at Christmastime, and who in the snowboarding industry isn't looking for that. There's still 3 more resorts out there who don't allow snowboarding. So poach away and maybe you'll even win the $5000 prize Burton is offering for filming your exploits and publishing them on their site.
