The Burton Custom X is one of Burton Snowboards most popular boards and in my opinion one of the best snowboards for those all mountain freestyle riders like myself. The Burton Custom X 2012 like year past is all about the fast response time and the amazing edge control, so for the riders of the North East who always have to deal with the ice…. this is a board you will love.

What’s new with the Burton Custom X 2012? The big addition to the 2012 Custom X is the Squeeze Box Core, which will give you more snap through your turns and also give you more over stability and control of your deck with a little less effort.

What other tech makes 2012 Burton Custom X special? The Burton Custom X 2012 brings back everything from the 2011 board, but some of our favorites are the Frostbite Edges, Infinite Ride, Dragonfly Core and The Channel.

Frostbite Edges – make you feel even more in control on the ice.

Infinite Ride – helps you maintain the flex, pop and feel.

Dragonfly Core – Light, Responsive and Strong

The Channel – Ride the setup you want anytime any ride… easy to change for all conditions.

What sizes are available for the Burton Custom X 2012 : 152, 156, 158, 160, 164, 159W, 162W, 164W
