Does anyone know what year the Burton Fire's were released in a fluro green, and what year they were in blue? From my research l presume the fluro green was 2000, and the blue either 2001 or 2002.

Also was there ever 2 variants of the fire done in any year, with one called a race variant?

l have found a shop here in OZ, with a number of wind/fires for sale, but only in sizes 26.5 & 27.5.

Cheers

Dan.

Your years sound about right. Burton did do an extremely small run of a "race fire" that was solid yellow. If you are planing on buying a pair of these boots that you mentioned do not buy the clear yellow/green, they will crack when it gets cold, if they have a solid blue pair in your size go for it.

It gets cold enough to snow and/or make snow.
