Dear Rider: The Jake Burton Story 2021 123movies

Watch: Dear Rider: The Jake Burton Story 2021 123movies, Full Movie Online – The intimate and revealing documentary features interviews with Jake’s family, friends, and fellow snowboarders, including action sports icons Shaun White, Kelly Clark and Mark McMorris as well as a wealth of archival material and home movies. DEAR RIDER pays homage to Jake’s beloved and loyal “riders,” the audience he faithfully addressed every year for decades on the first page of his snowboard company’s catalogs. Acclaimed actor Woody Harrelson, a close friend of Jake’s, narrates catalog passages interspersed throughout the film. Inspired by the Snurfer, a surfboard-inspired strip of wood, Jake created his first snowboard in 1977 as an inexpensive alternative to skiing. From there, he developed increasingly versatile boards while encouraging ski resorts, sponsors, and world-class athletes to take up what the media dubbed “the worst new sport.” By the late 1990s, Jake’s vision had catapulted the punk-infused culture of snowboarding into the mainstream and onto the world stage. But as Jake and his eponymous company, Burton, thrived in the new century, the entrepreneur battled two very serious health problems: Miller Fisher Syndrome, a rare nerve disorder, as well as cancer, which ultimately claimed his life in 2019. Today, Jake’s memory lives on throughout the snowboarding community, and his wife Donna Carpenter remains at the helm of the family-owned business..
Plot: An irreverent entrepreneur overcomes a series of adversities to create a new sport- and unexpectedly launches a global cultural phenomenon: snowboarding.

Captures the essence
I love how the film covers the whole spectrum of history, including the early days. Jake is a legend forever. The film left me very uplifted, and had some excellent footage of the action.

40+ Years of Shred
Very cool doc on Jake. What a well rounded, goal oriented man. 2 of my high school friends from Michigan drove to Vermont back in 84 and knocked on Jakes door and asked him to sponsor them. He didn’t do it on the spot, but asked them to meet him at Stowe the next day to see how they road. Well enough, as he sponsored them that day. One of them was featured in the doc getting a award at the end of the US Open. That just goes to show you what a cool, easy going guy he was.

I used to buy boards and Burton clothing samples from the grey long haired bearded dude (world ambassador) interviewed in the doc as well. He was the rep for the midwest in the 80’s/90’s.

I wish I had the opportunity to meet Jake, but never had a chance. RIP and thanks for opening the world to the coolest snow sport on the planet.
