Product Details

Rocker Type

Camber – Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Cambered snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop providing better jumping characteristics.

Flex

Personality – 5 – 8 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)

Shape

Twin – Perfectly symmetrical for a balanced ride that’s equally versatile regular or switch. Jib, spin, stomp, and butter with a greater balance of freestyle mobility and cat-like stability no matter which way you point it.

Pro-Tip – A tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

Core

Super Fly II™ 700G Core – Stronger and lighter woods target specific areas of the core to provide pop, strength, and reduced weight.

Dualzone™ EGD™ – The wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges on two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core for consistent edge-hold and added strength.

Off-Axis Squeezebox – Matches the angles of a typical park rider’s stance by having a defined heel edge on the board no matter which foot you ride forward. (optimized for 15, -15, but you can ride just about anything). This gives better toe and heel edge grip, natural flex around the bindings, smoother feel on take-offs and landings, and more natural heel side turns.

Laminates

Women’s Specific Triax™ Fiberglass – Torsionally softer than Burton’s regular Triax™ for lighter women’s bodies

Base

Sintered Base – Durable and highly porous, get added durability and superior wax absorption for greater overall glide.

Edges

Off-Axis Frostbite Edges – Frostbite edges extend out slightly from the sidewall of the board for added bite when you need it and a smooth and buttery ride when you don’t. Adding Off-axis profiling to the edge contours enhances the ride for typical park angles.

Additional Features

Infinite Ride™ – This Burton-exclusive technology allows maximized pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Flat Top, Flying V™, or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.

Super Sap® Epoxy – A resin formulated with bio-based materials that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional all-petroleum-based epoxies. Less oil consumption means even less of a carbon footprint per board.

Binding Compatibility

The Channel® Mounting System – Stronger, faster, easier, and more adjustable — The Channel™ gives you ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings (not just Burton’s).

Channel Inserts Included – Channel Inserts are required to mount your bindings. Inspect packaging before disposing.
