They don't exist, and never will. e-mail proof from Burton: Hello Anders, thank you for your Email and your interest in Burton Snowboards but I have to say, we did not produced any kind of Skis and we will never have Skis in our Burton line. I am not sure what kind of pictures you saw but it could be Skis with Burton Stickers on it or the climbing “skis” from the Split-Board. For any Info’s about the coolest Winterport in the World, please visit our Website. www.burton.com Thank you Thorsten

amplid makes snowboards and I'm cool with that, I think ninthward used to make boards too.

That being said, I probably wouldn't ride burton skis...unless they got the most incredible reviews

Who needs Burton skis when there is the new Line Anthem?

It's pretty much the coolest ski ever known to man, paying homage to "the coolest wintersport in the world"

I feel like an exec at burton would be able to send an email without a million typos. Then again, it is a knuckledragger company, so maybe not.

Someone please get a split board and put some real ski bindings on that. You'd be able to control it enough to make a little edit, then send it back to that dude. Even better, find a pro who is between sponsors to ride them.

Not to sure where you heard this, although we are Burton Snowboards and never have any plan to manufacture Skis.  Sorry for the inconvenience although if you have anymore questions do not hesitate to contact us at the number listed below.
