SKULLCANDY AND BURTON UNLEASH THE WILD SIDE WITH LIMITED-EDITION COLLABORATION

Collection Champions Out-of-the-Box Thinking Featuring Stand-Out Style From Two Brands Made in the Mountains

PARK CITY, Utah, Feb. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Skullcandy, the #1 selling brand in true wireless earbuds¹ under $100, announced today its all-new collaboration with Burton, the world's leading snowboard brand. The limited-edition collection includes Skullcandy fan-favorites Crusher Evo true wireless headphones, along with Push Active and Mod true wireless earbuds. Each offering features a bold asymmetrical aesthetic in a unique Naughty Nature colorway inspired by nature's wild energy and the drive to push boundaries on and off the mountain. The collaboration is available globally, exclusively on Skullcandy.com.

"Jake Burton Carpenter spent more than four decades advancing snowboard design and fighting for lift access for snowboarders at resorts around the world. Skullcandy was born on one of those chairlifts. Without Burton, snowboarding wouldn't be what it is today. In a way, Skullcandy might not be either," said Derek Steiner, director of global brand partnerships, Skullcandy.

Both a Skullcandy and Burton ambassador, Olympic Gold Medalist and three-time female Snowboarder of the Year Anna Gasser, lends her image to the Skullcandy x Burton collaboration. She not only drives progress in her sport but in her community as well, pushing boundaries and inspiring up-and-comers to follow their dreams. 

"With similar backgrounds and philosophies, this collaboration with Burton has been a long time coming," Steiner continued. "A collection with a look this loud, needs serious performance to back it up and Skullcandy's Crusher Evo, Push Active and Mod deliver just that. We hope this unique collab inspires our fans to express themselves on the mountain and in life, always daring to venture down the road less traveled." 

The limited-edition Crusher Evo, Push Active and Mod true wireless solutions feature a uniquely-wild asymmetrical look with a Naughty Nature peach, pink and purple cheetah-print on one side and olive green on the other, channeling the fierce energy brewed within those who venture off the beaten path. The design takes inspiration from Burton's Rewind and Name Dropper board graphics.
