These are for US only and are in order by YTD sales %. Understand that certain happenings have played a role in these numbers. For example, Burton's lower end product is now sold at The Sports Authority.

For their end of season sale and I can confirm there were mostly Burton boards on display. However, I'm not sure where in the product line they were. I did pick up a nice Convert 2-in-1 jacket in a nice burnt orange color. Now my kids will have no excuse for not finding me at the end of a run.

I have the SIA audit info also, one thing is that the number are really incomplete, it's just a general overview of shops that reply. I can see trends & what sells though. I look at our numbers & they are way off. Example would be on specialty & chain store showed that units sold is roughly 4% of our actual sales to the US.
