this thread is pretty pointless, but did anyone else notice they didn't spell BONIFAY correctly in the ad, BONFAY

I don't think it's pointless. The quality of grammar, spelling and editing is getting sad in the industry. I don't think most care, but it's just sad that it slips by the editing so easily. I never notice errors in most other mags, even snowboarding. I don't think the people at the red tag sports site know the difference between their, they're and there, and use them all incorrectly.

they also messed up the light bar section. The Airboom and Skylon light bars were swapped.

You should see how many different ways they spell Schwenne. You peruse WBM or Alliance and they'll spell it 3 different ways in the same issue. I always wonder if Cortese is messing with Mike?

Spelling the name of a sports icon wrong is a HORRIBLE mistake. What if a chicago bulls add said home of the greatest player Michl Jrdan!

I remember the packaging on Rainbow Fins many years ago had three out of their four riders names spelled wrong. That's pretty bad!

I agree, A-Dub. You see this type of thing a lot in this industry. I can't help but dismiss a company who can't even spell basic words correctly or use grammar reasonably well. Realistically, the majority of consumers probably don't give a poop because they can't spell or use grammar properly anyway.

Spelling some of the professionals' names wrong!!?? That's pretty bad! Dave, that's really bad!
