...the description of this particular Burton snowboard. This has to be one of my favorite Burton snowboards for way more than one reason. First, it still remains affordable, but you get an exceptional custum board. Made the way you want it so it can fit your personal individual taste. You also have the option of this board to bear the Burton logo in any part of the board you want. There is quite a selection of designs to choose from so your board is ... ...I love most about the Burton Custum. This snowboard features all the regular factors a normal snowboard would feature in. It also features a few gimme's and advanced features.
The Burton Custum is designed for advanced tricks also on the slopes. You have a variety of options to choose from while using this snowboard. Have some fun with it also. The first couple times I used this board I expanded the uses for it, like inventing some of my own stunts ...

Review of Burton Custom
The Burton T6 snowboard comes at a premium; but to get the absolute best on-piste riding board there is then you have to pay for it.... The T6 is without doubt the best on piste board board I have ever ridden and it aint half bad in powder either
The moment you take the board on its first run down the piste you will instantly feel more confident with it, you will find yourself pushing yourself harder and harder and when you think you have pushed ... ...turns and deliver you to the bottom of the mountain. The board comes into its own when the conditions get icy, I'm not saying you will start enjoying icy conditions as much as piste conditions but while your friends are falling about the place you will be slicing through the ice as if it wasn't there
The board also performs well off piste in the powder, its very leight and as a result lets you keep above the powder a bit more easily, the default ...

Review of Burton T6
Advantages: Flexible, excellent design, super construction and finish Disadvantages: Expensive
...this board.
I had Burton Mission bindings and some Soloman boots and this seemed to be a excellent combi for me. The only problem or niggle i had with this board it that the top surface is so easy to scratch. I had a scag skier ride over the edge of my board and got some real scratches in there.
The base of the board is excellent however in my opinion it takes a lot of work to keep the surface in good condition. Not really a long term board i don't ... ...to the tips. The construction is excellent, i did get a few chips in the board but it really has been bounced about all over the place.
At the end of the day i love this board simply of the quality and the amazing feel you get through it. The ability to be able to feel and judge the powder just makes this a excellent aid to inproving and taking the next step to becoming a pro.
Bought the board for around £400 and it's earned its money and stil ...
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 ... ...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 though, slush - as soon as I go anywhere near the stuff the board slows down to such a degree that if I know ...

Review of Burton Blunt
Advantages: An excellent all round board that develops with the Rider Disadvantages: I should have researched boards the first time round
...my research pointed at a Rome Snowboard, they seemed to be the best all round boards that would not only meet my requirements but be a board that I could improve my riding on as well as simply riding at a set level. I originally set my mind to getting the Rome Agent but at over £400 it was a little over the £300 budget I had set myself. On a visit to the Berks and Bucks Boarding Centre in High Wycombe I decided to opt for the slightly cheaper Rome ... ...my requirements. The Rome solution is a good all-round board that not only suits the on and off piste requirements I was looking for but is also just as good for the Parks. This is where my old F2 was a real let down as it was only really suitable for use in Parks and struggled on long piste runs. It's one of the best all round boards I tested for the money I had and for that reason I felt it was really the only choice for me to buy. The Solution ...
