...Established in1977 a Jake Burton created ‘Burton Snowboards’ in Londonderry, Vermont, producing the first Burton board, the ‘Backhill’. Since then Burton has established itself as ‘the’ premier snowboard making company and has produced countless boards, and countless champions have ridden with Burton. The Supermodel is a model I picked up two years ago, since then Burton have discontinued production of this board, ... ...at the back of board racks in some shops. I would especially recommend picking one up second hand provided it’s in good condition.
Before I go into reviewing the board, perhaps I’d better make clear the viewpoint from which I’m reviewing this product. I’ve been boarding for two years now. I’m 6 foot, and 13 stone. As far as my skill level goes, I’m still a relative beginner. No problems on the slopes or off piste, ...

...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
...Once you try out the Burton Floater you might all of a sudden get the feeling that you are floating. Pretty cool, huh? Anyway I tried my experience with the Burton Floater when I went on my vacation to Utah which I do about 4 times a year. They are known mainly for their really good skiing and snowboarding slopes. So this is where I usually go snowboarding. I was lucky enough to get to try this snowboard out on new powder. They had just dumped additional ... ...I got to experience the Burton Floater for 3 days in a row. I liked it so much that I payed the hefty price of a 3 day rental anyway. The money was put to good use, because this snowboard is quite impressive. Let me tell you why in just a second.
First off, the Burton Floater is especially designed for people with bigger or wider feet than other people have. I happen to have wide feet so I decided to give this board a try. Features -Prevents you ...

Review of Burton Floater
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. ... ...tag especially. The brand says Burton which has to be in some shape, or form a sense of relief. I have tried many snowboards in the past, particularly in the beginning of me snowboarding. Some just did not compete with having good durability. A good and reliable snowboard has to be durable, if not how will you trust yourself riding it? You have to trust your instincts on the first hand. oOoOo-Smooth-oOoOo The Changer is a smooth riding snowboard ...

Review of Burton Charger
...for extreme acceleration, then the Burton Fusion snowboard is the anser. This is one of my favorite speed snowboards for more than one reason. It is slick, and stylish and will give you that extra boost to achieve extreme speed and velocity. I purchased my Fusion board a couple months ago at a local snowboard shop. I bought it a couple months pre-owned, but whoever owned the snowboard last really kept it in prestine condition. I could even hardly ... ...I could have it. The Burton Fusion snowboards are very hard to locate and purchase in some part of the United States. So you are basically dealing with a game of trial and error. I was at the right place, at the right time so that is how I led my ownership on the Burton Fusion snowboard. When I purchased this board I was aware it was an especially made speed snowboard. I was looking for this board for many reasons. I was in need of a snowboard that ...
