Burton Custom Snowboard - The Burton Custom is the American snowboard brand's most iconic board, offering a lot of versatility and responsiveness while retaining playability for freestyle. The Custom has a slightly directional shape, with a nose a little longer than the tail to provide better flotation in powder. It offers a tonic flex but not too demanding in order to keep comfort and playability. It's really a versatile board that we enjoy riding. Shop it HERE
