Base colors may vary

Sierra Says: The newest addition to Burton's legendary freeride family, the Guru is an impressive blend of value and performance. The slightly tapered shape helps cut through powder like a sword, while the twin flex promotes a balanced and forgiving feel. This board works best for the intermediate freerider that loves carving around the mountain and doesn't spend much time in the terrain parks.

Burton Says: The way of freeriders requires a heightened awareness toward one's surroundings. Finding untouched stashes well after the storm or terrain anomalies that boost you well above the gaze of unsuspecting onlookers isn't a... More ?

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Guru
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: great pow board,

Experience: The way of the freerider requires a heightened awareness towards oneâ€™s surroundings. Finding untouched stashes well after the storm or terrain anomalies that boost you well above the gaze of unsuspecting onlookers isnâ€™t a skill, itâ€™s an art form. In your quest for freeride enlightenment, the NEW Guruâ„¢ is your guide. Fast enough to push your skills, but soft enough to ease your fear, let your journey begin.

"Burton Guru 2010 162" 4/10/2010

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(2) No

Name: Burton Guru
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Price,

Experience: Just a heads up to all that the graphics on this board are not identical to those shown on the website. Bottom is predominantly cream not green. Green and Cream are transposed. I haven't riden it yet, but just wanted to warn people that liked the green bottom graphic.

"The Guru" 4/10/2010

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Guru
Skill: Beginner
Use: High Speeds,Powder
Pros: good on powder, all around,

Experience: The Burton Guru is a really good powder all mountain board. I noticed the nose is a bit bigger on this one and is tapered to both ends. Tail smaller. Good on icy conditions too and can rail like any other. Depending on your ride, it's a beginner or intermediate board. Good starter all-mountain for new riders. 7/10 stars.
