Burton Freestyle SI

Advantages: Good every day riding board; great value
Disadvantages: Board lacks pop, it needs to be a little stiffer on the ends

...The Burton blunt is designed to be a mid-range free-stlye board which can be used for a bit of on piste riding as well. I find the board to be a good all round performer for free-style riding and on piste especially for such a cheap board - for the price this board is remarkable. The board really should have a bit more pop in it to be classed as a good free-style board though, this is my only real issue with the board - its difficult to any real height while ollie'ing the board - its just not stiff enough On piste the board is good, very good in-fact, better than any other free-style board I have ridden, the edge is strong and sharp enough to give you the confidence to push the board hard in turns at speed and is flexible enough to allow you to have a lot of fun on the board bending it through 180 nose turns and so on - one problem...

Advantages: flexible, mellow edges, good graphics ect
Disadvantages: NONE

...soo the burton dominant .. LOOKS the graphics looks sick (REALLY REALLY GOOD) THE BOARD ITS SELF the board is well suited to all stages of rider (ie experience wise) beginner to expert. the edges are reallly mellow so begginers will not catch edges easily also the more experienced will not catch edges doing rails (which really hurts!!!) the board is also very flexible so if you land wrong doing a trick you have a better chance of staying upright. TYPES OF TERRAIN the board is more suited to park/freestyle riding and also good for powder as it is flexible. you can use it on normal runs but it is not very effective as you slide round corners rather than carve due to the mellow edges! ADVANTAGES i leant on this board and i have turned out ok so thier must be something right on this board. flexible, mellow edges, good graphics ect... Read review

Advantages: Great for any advanced tricks and stunts, exceptional performance, excellent design.
Disadvantages: None

...When you come upon a Burton snowboard, you know you have found the real deal. I have bought almost 35 Burton snowboards either new or from various used snowboard certified dealers. So this has ended up to be review number four on my snowboard adventure. So the first time I really got the advantage to experience the Burton Charger was in December when I traveled out of town to Utah for my annuel snowboarding vacation, something I always love doing. There I purchased this snowboard on sale for $350.00. a considered fair price put on the overall performance of this snowboard things were very impressive. The first time I tried this snowboard on the slopes, I was very happy with what I was experiencing. The board is specially designed for freestyle the result is for you to have more options on how to use your snowboard. Which means more... Read review
