"Custom 160" 12/18/2010

Helpful Review? (2) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Advanced
Pros: super stable at high speeds, easy to trust its stability in difficult terrain, nice look and overall feel
Cons: a little hard to push this board around at the , top of Mammoth but it may just take some getting , used to the length at 160.

Experience: I demo'd this board at Mammoth last week with Cartel bindings and brand new Jeremy Johnson boots. The conditions were hard packed, chunky and icy but it loosened up more at the top of the mountain. The Custom was very stable and super fast. This board seems to slam through the crust effortlessly and had minimal if no wobble whatsoever at high speeds in some pretty bumpy terrain. I am going to buy this board and ride the crap out of it for the rest of the season.

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: light, stiffy ,
Cons: very wide in comparision ,

Experience: l really wanted to buy this board when l found it on discount along with the hero. decided on this because it was cambered. the first impression was that it was a very light (in comparision with my old one). l thought a 6 wouldnt be stiff, but it was stiffer than l would have thought completely but its alright, l can deal with it. Now l got the 154, but lm not sure why the tip and tail width is so wide. my car has a hole in the middle, but not sure why it wouldnt fit, even my friend in 160 fitted. Overal good board, just would have liked it if it wasnt channel system and the stupid wideness of the board.

"awesome board for the price" 11/25/2011

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: i love the color scheme, no high-speed chatter, the channel system is great
Cons: not the fastest, not the most responsive, not so good holding an edge on ice

Experience: Me: 6'2, 240lbs. The board: 165cm Wide. Boot size: 13. Binding size: Large I bought this board back when TruSnow was Sierra so it was 50% off last year so my review is for a 2010 model. I have demo'd the 2011 model and it feels exactly the same to me so this review applies to the 2011 as well. The easy part is the bad stuff, it isn't the fastest nor the most responsive. I would say it's about 2 steps below the speed of a T6 and noticeably less responsive and softer. Another gripe is I wish it held a better edge on ice, but it doesn't. I know there isn't much I can do about it because my edges are very sharp and it doesn't seem to improve that situation much. The good stuff: say what you will about the color scheme but mine came with black, yellow, red, green, white, blue, and orange stripes on it with C-U-S-T-O-M on the bottom in contrasting colors. I think it's awesome and it's my favorite color scheme of all the boards I've owned thus far. It has just the right amount of stiffness to hold an edge on groomers and enough pop to hit jumps and boxes and get some good air. I never experienced any high-speed chatter like I have with other boards and it flows nicely on groomers. It also does surprisingly well on chopped up snow where I used to catch an edge. The Channel System is the best I've ever tried and I'm never looking back. The adjustability is seemingly infinite and so far the channel system seems very durable and able to take all the force I put into it. Even at only a 20% discount right now I'd definitely buy this board again if I were in the market and I'd recommend it to anyone from a newbie just starting out to an intermediate snowboarder. I'd recommend it to park boarders too but you should probably size down as normal when selecting a board. I wouldn't recommend it to advanced riders because it may feel too soft and ride too slow for their tastes.

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Pop, Control, Stable
Cons: Hard to butter , Hard to press, catching an edge

Experience: I got this board when I was 13 or 14. I liked it a lot and its lasted me for 3 seasons. Feels the same as it did on day 1. Not the best for jibbing, but great on jumps, halfpipe, and powder.

"very fast" 3/5/2011

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Advanced
Pros: good pow, very fast,
Cons: bad on ice,

Experience: Took me a short while to get comfortable with this board but once I did I fell in love. This board is so quick and responsive in all types of terrain. Rides well in powder also. The flexibility of the rockered center gives you great feel and when you sit back on the tail it's like hitting the gas pedal! Extremely stable & fast. Not great on ice but what board is.

"great board!" 1/24/2012

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: very stable, flexible, very easy to maneuvre
Cons: chips easily,

Experience: So I borrowed my buddy's Burton Custom for the weekend and absolutely loved it. This board is very stable and very fast. I found myself travelling at faster speeds and way more comfortably then with my own board. There is little to no chatter and it transitions from edge to edge with ease. Also, I found it to be very flexible allowing for ground tricks to be pulled off no problem. One issue is how easily the top chips and cracks. After just a few hours of riding I noticed a few (albeit minor) paint chips on the top of the board. Even though it has no effect on the performance of the board, it's kind of sore to look at

"The Best Board I Know." 1/22/2012

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Custom Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Fast Response/Manuverable, Stable at High Speeds, Feel like a Boss
Cons: Edges are not really meant for jibbing, Would not reccomend for park beginners. ,

Experience: This is one of the best boards I own. I know reverse camber and rocker seem to be all the rage right now and are supposedly the best for novices. However I feel like this for me personally that this doesn't hold true. I think the fairly solid stiffness combined with the edge hold of the time honored camber is still the way to go for beginners(once they know how to link their turns). I think that this board although really expensive might be worth every dollar. The control it gives me is unlike any other board I have ridden. It allows me to feel confident at the highest speeds my weight will allow me to go. It has really taken my skill to the next level. I am now ready to try out some of the jumps now that I know I can go as fast as I want and feel secure on the slopes. Now that I am going to the air a little I understand that the edges of this board can be a little harsh since landing in an award position mean catching an edge in the snow for sure. I do however own a reverse camber board as well and I find myself using that more for small jumps these days. I did notice however this board is heavier than my reverse camber (burton hero). I think it may have to do with the increased stiffness and lighting bolt tech. I've come to the conclusion that you cannot ask a board to do everything perfectly but this one does really well in most situations. I finally know why this board is considered one of the best all mountain boards out there. Definitely good for groomers and slightly icy runs. A little slower in the powder than my reverse camber. Not as forgiving when landing the board in strange position after catching some air. Has lots of pop and control though which a huge confidence builder if you're learning to go down the mountain at pretty high speeds. Last words: Although not truly a magical board that can do everything to perfection I love it. Truly has progressed my riding and confidence glad to own this board it's definitely a keeper.

Pros: Great all around board, Love it w/EST,

Experience: I like to wait before writing reviews. So after two years, I can honestly say that this board is still as good as the day I got it. It's great on the main trails, back bowls and in powder.... it's ok in the park.
