Burton Custom X Snowboard 2021

Burton Custom X Snowboard 2021

The Burton Custom X has made a name for itself as the go to board for those guys who want to go fast and send it big. Over the years some of snowboarding's most demanding riders have helped tweak and craft the ultimate freeride board, with an emphasis on precision and power. The biggest advantage of this is the Custom X's high tech elements, such as carbon highlights replacing fiberglass elements, a competition grade base, and Burtons revolutionary Squeezebox core design. This year Burton has tweaked the shape to make for the hardest charging board they could possibly make.

RIDER ABILITY- Advanced/Expert

The Custom X's stiff flex and full Camber profile make it well suited towards experienced riders

RIDING STYLE- Freeride

Freeride boards are well suited for the type of rider that loves going fast and hitting tough technical terrain. They also lend themselves well towards powder snow as they are typically stiffer than most boards and have a directional or directional twin design

FLEX- 8/10

A Stiffer flex allows for higher stability at speed, better drive out of turns, and higher amounts of pop. At the sacrifice of a bit of playfulness

PROFILE- Camber

Full Camber from tip to tail makes for a board that is well suited towards powerful turns and has loads of pop when loaded up. Full weight distribution over the entire length of the board allows for precise edge control

SHAPE- All Mountain Directional

What we call Directional Twin, this style of board has a slightly longer nose than tail. This allows for a bit more stability and more float in your dominant stance, while still allowing you to ride switch.

CORE- FSC Certified Super Fly II 700G Core with Dualzone EGD Squeezebox

A blend of Aspen and Paulownia woods that allow for a lightweight design, and awesome pop and snap. While remaining durable. FSC Certified cores also are made in a way that is environmentally, economically, and socially responsible way.

GLASS- 45° Carbon Highlights

This is a traditional Triaxial layout found on most high end boards, but with some of the glass fibers replaced with carbon. This reduces weight and makes for a more aggressive and lively ride

BASE- Sintered WFO Base

The Sintered WFO base takes the great elements of a sintered base and amp them up a bit. They absorb more wax and have a high density, making for a super fast ride in any snow condition
