In addition, this year\u2019s Burton Mountain Festival will also encourage a little friendly competition in the park as Burton\u2019s influential regional rep riders, the \u2018Knowbuddies\u2019, will be hosting a fun, grassroots competition called \u2018It\u2019s Know Contest\u2019 at every stop. To stoke riders out, local Knowbuddies will post up at different park features on the mountain to giveaway Burton swag to those pulling off the most impressive tricks. <\/p>\n
