Read our findings below. (order is random)
1. BURTON CARTOGRAPHER DIRECTIONAL CAMBER SNOWBOARD
What a board! The surprise of the test. Wonderful directional camber board. Friendly board but with a lot of feeling and control. Despite the fact that there is no carbon in it, it can handle quite high speeds. In my opinion there is no better board for this price. All-round Freeride board for piste and off-piste. The little brother of the Hometown Hero.
Surfing on the mountain. This is the board that can do it. Its flex makes it great for off-piste, but the board is still stable enough to carve the slopes.
Wonderful all-round board! Nice and playful and can basically be used anywhere on the mountain. By adding carbon, advanced boarders also enjoy the FeelGood.
The Free Thinker! The word free says it. I'm as free as can be on this board. I can take to the air, and I can freeride. Suitable for the somewhat advanced boarder. More playful camber than the rest of the collection. Nice flying! Just look at the picture.
Description by Testrider Rene
Nice and playful board for the park. Full twin, nice and flexy. If you also want to use it for the slopes, take a size larger due to soft flex. Still a lot of control by the Camber.
5. BURTON BLOSSOM CAMBER SNOWBOARD
Description by test rider Renzo
Sturdy freestyle board. Certainly suitable for the higher jumping and flying work. Possibly good for the halfpipe. By adding carbon I-beam more quiet at high speed and a lot of pop at pressure release.
6. BURTON MEN'S NAME DROPPPER PUREPOP CAMBER SNOWBOARD
Description by Testrider Marlon:
It's all about fun! Very playful due to the Purepop Camber in combination with the soft longitudinal flex. Also has good grip. Have fun! Just look at the picture.
6. BURTON FT HOMETOWN HERO DIRECTIONAL CAMBER SNOWBOARD
Description by Testrider Harry
My favourite. Previous seasons already showed how good this directional camber board is for the better snowboarder. Grip, power, control both on and off piste. You can go so incredibly fast on this board without losing control. Ideal for the experienced snowboarder looking for an all-round Freerider. Also good as an alternative for the old Custom X or Custom rider who hardly ever drives a switch anymore. Its tapered shape makes it easy to make turns at both high and low speed. The carbon highlights also give it a lot of dynamism. Absolute top board!
7. BURTON MEN'S CUSTOM SNOWBOARD (CAMBER AND FLYING V)
Description by testrider Harry
The Custom is a wonderful all-rounder. Lots of control and grip with this board. The Flying V variant also performs well off-piste. The new carbon highlights provide much more dynamics than the older Custom models. Accessible board that can ride at your level. A top board. Camber suitable for slopes and level freestyle. The FV all-round for the rider looking for an all-rounder in 1 board.
8. BURTON WOMEN'S YEASAYER FLYING V SNOWBOARD
Description by test driver Lieve:
It felt like I could handle anything with this board. Pieces off-piste, nice carving and a jump here and there all went perfectly. Furthermore, I was not easily punished if I made a mistake.
9. BURTON MEN'S CUSTOM X CAMBER SNOWBOARD
Description by testrider Harry:
I've known the Custom X for a while. The new Custom X is not much different than in recent years. It remains a banger. Lots of grip, power, pop and aggressiveness. Due to the many carbon in it, it only comes into its own at speed. Off piste less ideal. The stiff nose quickly digs into the deep snow. Ideal for making turns on piste and or riding high level freestyle in a half pipe or big air.
10. BURTON MEN'S FLIGHT ATTENDANT DIRECTIONAL CAMBER SNOWBOARD
Description by Testrider Harry:
One of the many popular directional camber boards. Ride well on pistes and at speed in larger powder fields. The classic carbon I beam makes it an excellent board for experienced riders who want to make controlled turns.
11. BURTON MEN'S PROCESS SNOWBOARD (PUREPOP. CAMBER/FLYING V)
Description by testrider Rene:
Dynamic underfoot due to the Camber profile! But steers gently due to the light rocker in the nose and tail. This also gives some extra float and space for freestyle.
