 Good Features This board is you go to board when you’re not sure what you want to do. Take it on a trip and no matter what the conditions you'll be faced with this ride will definitely keep you in track; it's a lovely board to ride with a quick response and a good turn radius. Bad Features I have no complaints about this board. Recommended Alternatives Burton Custom X |

Burton Custom X Snowboard - Blem 2008 - The worlds premier wood core board. The peak-to-park weapon of choice for DCP, Frederik K., Mario Grilc, and Kazu, the Custom X is the ultimate upgrade for those ready to ride at higher levels. Heli-accessed pillow lines, crap-your-pants Alaskan gnar, stadium kickers, or World Cup superpipes-dissect all elements with surgical precision, warp speed, and second-nature agility. With the Burton Custom X Snowboard, next-level freestyle is yours for the slaying. - Sintered WFO Vision Base - This pre-conditioned, wax-impregnated base accelerates past every other base out there. It features the fastest WFO base with the insane clarity of Burtons Vision materials for hole shot speed and the poppiest graphics possible. Dragonfly Core - Incorporates over 500 independent laminations, each individually oriented within the core, to create the lightest weight, strongest and liveliest wood core on the planet.
- Vaporskin - Drops up to ½ pound of weight while magnifying board feel; one of Vaportech's key ingredients. Less materials between you and the mountain means that you begin to feel your way through terrain with newfound intuition. Become connected to the mountain in ways never thought possible. Carbon I-Beam - More POP than Michael, less WEIGHT than Paris H. This ultra-light carbon backbone gives the board added pop and longitudinal snap.
- Infinite Ride - No more break-in period. No more limp noodle. Flex and pop that stays true, no matter how hard you ride. This exclusive pop and power-enhancing technology allows them to break in the board for you, while also increasing its strength. Stainless Steel Pressure Distribution Edges - Superior defense against rust and corrosion for razor-sharp edges and hassle-free maintenance. Edges extend beneath your bindings to give you the extra edge hold you need to cleanly slice through bulletproof hardpack without changing the board's feel.
- Pro-Tip - Another Burton first, tapering the thickness of the tip and tail dramatically reduces swing weight to help you get around that extra 180 also improves float in powder. Positive Core Profile - Thicker between the bindings, thinner towards the nose and tail. Drives you through a turn while increasing edge grip, response and carving precision.
- Even Core Profile [on Custom X Wide] - All-around performance. Creates a consistent flex and feel, promoting stability at all speeds. Stiff enough to power through turns, yet playful enough for buttering and rails. Multizone EGD - Burtons exclusive Engineered Grain Technology [EGD] takes edge control one step further. Transmits maximum power to your edges for precise carving and insane snow feel.

Burton: Custom Snowboard - Redesigned with a wider waist in longer lengths for the big boys, Burton's Custom remains the delightful detour from conformity. Traditionally experienced snowboarders were forced to make a choice between specialized freestyle and freeride designs, which often limit you to certain parts of the mountain. Burton's Custom Snowboard spans the gap between freestyle and freeride designs without messing up the performance potential for aggressive riders. This season Burton redesigned the width of the 158-cm. and larger Custom boards so bigger riders can enjoy the same versatility. The Custom features Burton's Pro Tip construction that gives the board more of a freestyle twin-tip shape with a light and easy swing weight, but the 10-mm. Back-of-Center-Stance Location locks in the all-mountain potential. It has a proven Super Fly II core, a vertical sandwich of hard and soft woods for minimal weight and better snap. A Carbon I-Beam backbone adds more longitudinal response without bulking up the weight. If you could peer inside the fiberglass construction you would find that the wood grain along the toe and heel edges runs perpendicular to the rest of the wood core in a design called DualZone Edge Grain Direction, a process that elevates edging performance without sacrificing durability. The wood is wrapped in a long layer of Triax fiberglass topped off with two more diagonal layers, resulting in a torsional stiffness that translates to intuitive carving and easy turn initiation. Another nice touch is Burton's new 10:45 Sidewalls, an impact-absorbing edge design that uses two different angles to add strength and performance that lasts through seasons of hard landings. - Burton "feel" rating: 6 on a scale of 1 to 7
- Excellent for all terrain, but suitable for pipes, parks and groomed runs
- Burton likes pairing their Cartel bindings and Hail snowboard boots with the Custom
- Nose/waist/tail widths in 158 cm: 292.5/249/292.5 mm. (formerly 291.5/248/291.5 mm.)
- Sidecut radius in 158 cm.: 8.01 m.
- Stance width in 158 cm.: 530 mm.
- Burton Infinite Ride® technology for consistent and lasting flex
- Super Fly II wood core with a negative core profile for softer flex and torsion between bindings resulting in more independent foot control
- 10-mm. back-of-center stance location for better all-mountain cruising
- Pro Tip profiled tip and tail reduces swing weight while improving powder float
- 10:45 Sidewalls feature two distinct angles for durability that meets the needs of aggressive riders
- Dualzone Edge Grain Direction at toe and heel edges for enhanced edging
- Carbon I-Beam for enhanced longitudinal snap
- Triax Response fiberglass for torsional stiffness and near-effortless turn initiation
- High-grade Sintered WFO Base saturated with a pre-conditioned, wax-impregnated base
- Suggested weight range: 130-180 lbs. (59-82 kg.) in 158 cm, 210 lbs. (95 kg.) max in 166 cm. length
