The 2009 Burton Custom Snowboard
The 2009 Burton Custom Snowboard has a new feature that riders are going to love in the Infinite Channel. The Channel provides you unlimited adjustments of you stance on the fly and stances that you would never be able to configure on a traditional binding set up. The Burton Custom also brings back the The Super Fly II and the Dual Zone EGD, WFO base, and Triax Response Fiberglass With Carbon I-Beam. The Super Fly II Core strategically place different types of wood throughout the board to give the board a lot more snap and strength. The Traix Response Fiberglass With Carbon I-Beam provides a versatile flex and response on top of an added pop and snap to be able to shed all parts of the mountain. The Sintered WFO base is Burton’s fastest base, this base material comes pre-conditioned to rip out the the box.
For those riders like myself that like to do it all, this is the board for you. Anytime you get a Burton board you are pretty much guaranteed a good ride, but the Custom brings the riding experience to another level.
