Board Type
All-Mountain
Performance Ratings
Park: 6/10
All-Mountain: 9/10
Powder: 7/10
Built to dominate the entire mountain, with a clear focus on precision carving, steep terrain and high-speed control.
Flex: 8/10 (Stiff)
Powerful, highly responsive and incredibly stable at speed. Ideal for aggressive riders who prioritise edge hold, drive and confidence in demanding terrain.
Ability Level
Advanced
Designed for experienced riders seeking maximum precision, stability and responsiveness in challenging conditions.
Shape: Directional Twin
Blends the stability of a directional shape with the balance of a twin outline. The slightly longer nose enhances float and control when riding forward, while maintaining the versatility to ride switch when needed.
Twin Flex – Symmetrical flex from tip to tail for a consistent and balanced feel in either direction.
Camber Profile: Traditional Camber
A powerful, fully cambered profile that delivers unmatched edge hold, explosive pop and dynamic energy through every turn.
Width Options
Standard – Quick edge-to-edge response for average boot sizes.
Wide – Increased platform width for larger boots, improving float and reducing toe or heel drag without sacrificing agility.
Mounting System: The Channel®
Burton’s adjustable mounting track system allows precise stance width and position adjustments. Compatible with most major binding brands and optimised for Burton EST bindings.
Construction
Laminate: Triax Fiberglass with Carbon I-Beam
Triax fiberglass above and below the core ensures consistent flex and all-terrain response. A lightweight Carbon I-Beam backbone enhances snap and amplifies pop for powerful energy return.
Core: Dragonfly 600G Core with Multizone EGD & Squeezebox
Dragonfly 600G Core – Strategically blends lighter and stronger woods in targeted zones to maximise strength and pop while significantly reducing overall weight. End-grain woods reinforce high-impact areas for durability without adding bulk.
Multizone EGD™ – Wood grain is aligned along the heel and toe edges in multiple zones adjacent to the Channel®, directing energy straight to the edges for superior hold and response.
Squeezebox Profiling – Alternates thicker, more powerful core sections with thinner, more flexible zones. This design improves energy transfer, enhances stability and increases snap.
Edges: Frostbite Edges
Extended edge contact points beneath the bindings provide extra grip and confidence on icy or firm snow.
Base: Sintered WFO
Ultra-absorbent, high-density sintered base infused with a specialised wax formula for exceptional durability and sustained high-speed glide.
Additional Features
Infinite Ride – Burton pre-conditions the board in the factory to maintain consistent flex, pop and performance from the first day through seasons of riding.
Pro-Tip™ – Tapered tip and tail reduce swing weight for improved manoeuvrability and smoother rotations.
Super Sap® Epoxy – Bio-based resin that cuts carbon emissions by up to 50% compared to traditional petroleum-based epoxies.
