Burton feather
Advantages: Great for beginners/progressing rider Disadvantages: None!
This board was my first ever non rental and is an excellent great value all mountain snowboard. I learned to snowboard whilst on holiday in Bulgaria (a whole different story!) I did a learn to snowboard package holiday, where all equipment and lift pass were included in the price. Bulgarian ski school was not the best but the holiday was very cheap. They gave us any old size board they could find and sent you to the slopes. The feather is designed ... ...soft flex and tapered shape to allow for a very smooth ride . Edge to edge transitions are very smooth and turning effortless. A perfect board choice for progression. The first time I used this board the difference it made to my riding compared to using rental boards was spectacular. Overall, would definately reccomend. ...

Excellent Board!
Advantages: Great all mountain board, durable, reliable, etc. Disadvantages: None that I've experienced!
...great service and reliability that Ride offers with all their products makes for a great purchase for anyone. Although I haven't been able to use it too much in powder conditions, seeing that I live in North Carolina, where hardly any natural snow falls, I'm sure that the board would be just fine in powder conditions. All in all, this board is the best board I have owned and even ridden and it works fine in any conditions, anywhere on the mountain ...

You have to pay for the best
Advantages: Sharp stiff edge; very leight weight; life-time guarantee Disadvantages: Pricey
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 ...

Good all round board
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 ...
