There are existing apps that give you weather, GPS tracking and resort info in individual applications, but we wanted to create an app that would encompass all of these needs.
Burton for Nokia Lumia blends augmented reality, ride tracking, enhanced video recording and resort information to bring you a fun way to find your perfect ride and capture the memory as it happens.
