Boston – The Burton Bullet Snowboard is a wide all-mountain FreeStyle board that is designed for all levels of riders. For a wide directional shape board you will notice that it is not a true twin tip in that the nose of the snowboard is slightly larger than the tail. By making the nose that small amount larger lets the board really crank down the mountain.
The Bullet has a core that features the Negative Core Profile and the Fly Core; these two features together give the snowboard improved feel, flex and durably for a great FreeStyle ride. Burton then creates a Glass using the Biax React Fiberglass that provides low torsional flex and a forgiving feel to allow you to press hard on new tricks. The snowboard is then capped with the Burton Lightspeed Vision base to make the board strong fast and easy to maintain.
Overall the big foot riders are doing to love this board not only because it can do it all well, but the price of under $300.00 is not going to break the bank.
Features of the Burton Bullet Snowboard:
- Lightspeed™ Vision Base
- Fly® Core
- Biax™ React Fiberglass
- Negative Core Profile
- Directional Shape

What’s up Scott I haven’t shopped for a board in five years and I’m a little out of the loop on the boards they got today. But I’m prodominantly a powder rider that’s looking to get in the park, do you think the bullet wide would do me right? Or should I look for another. I want to be able to hit the trees then head for the park, what do you suggest? Also I’ve been riding for twelve years and have been to it all from mt. Brighton mi to out west to the Canadian back country if it helps at all.

Hi Jack,
I have not checked out the 2009 Bullet, but based on the 2008 board it is a great board for the exact riding you like and you can not beat the price. I am a huge fan of the Custom, so if money is not a huge factor go for the the Custom and you will love it.
