A jib-focused park board, the Whammy Bar combines the buttery looseness and float of V-Rocker™ with the convex base tech of Mid Spoon between your bindings. Rail Ready™ edges and the Scoop tip and tail only enhance the Whammy Bar’s ridiculously catch-free feeling."

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Advanced
Pros: Obscene Flex, Light weight,
Cons: Stability,

Experience: Got the chance to demo this board and I was very impressed with its flex and weight. A really fun board to experiment in the park with... its boards like this one that make new tricks possible to invent. I wouldn't have enjoyed this board outside of the park though I don't think. Ultimately it's a good board to have, but I wouldn't make it you ONLY board unless you've never gone up anything but the park lift.

"More Than Expected" 7/3/2011

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Buttery and smooth, Nice pop, Fast
Cons: Stability at speed, Deep carves, Edge hold

Experience: Before buying this board I read every reiew made on it and I was truely expecting a good park board thats should strictly stay in the park, but after riding it I have to disagree with a lot of the reviews iv'e read. This board can tear it up outside of the park too. In the park it's amazing but outside it does pretty good too. Though it's not the best for all mountain/freestyle riding it still works. I took this thing on the halfpipe and could pull 540's. I do kinda agree that it lacks edge hold but the frostbite edges helped improve it. Plus lack of edge hold is expected on most v-rocker boards. Stability at speed would be my only other complaint. Once I started to pick up speed it felt slightly squirley but I was going insanely fast and as I said before, this board can handle even pipe. That leads me to the conclusion that this board deserves 4 stars. It's a great board only lacking a few things.

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Advanced
Pros: Flex, pop, scoop
Cons: carving, speed,

Experience: I took this board for a spin during Burton's Demo Tour. The mid-scoop really makes a difference for park and jibbing but I do not recommend it for all mountain riding. It's very catch free, easy to spin, and locks on rails. It does not carve well at all. Overall I enjoyed messing around on this board on a bluebird park day.

"Best Park board 2010" 10/28/2010

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Super fun buttery feel, Mid spoon for kinkrails,
Cons: lack of stability at speed, ,

Experience: This Board is the park board to own this year! The midscoop really helps you glide through kinks, this soft board makes buttering a breeze, seriously amazing on the jibs, spins like a top too! As far as jumps go, not the biggest fan, as some of the landings can get a little squirrely on RC boards, but handle well none the less. The board does well on the groomers, and non-groomers, but don't plan on riding too much side country with it, as it comes up too soft. Floats great through the chop as well. If you're anywhere between a beginner in park, to advanced, this is the board for you!

"Great For Park" 7/13/2012

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(1) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: rocker, buttery,
Cons: not very poppy,

Experience: My brother bought this board and I rode it a few times in the park. This board worked great especially on jibs. The rocker mate it super easy to press rails and butter boxes. In addition to this the board is relatively catch free which makes for a smooth ride. This board is perfect for any obstacles you will encounter in the park from jibs to jumps of all sizes.

"Whammy bar" 12/30/2011

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: rails, jumps, jibs
Cons: edge hold,

Experience: I just got this board at the beginning of this season and really enjoy it. I Ride in the midwest and iv found that i can take this board all over any hill out here. It is super flexy and butters with the drop of a shoulder. slides smooth on rails and through kinks. with this board you will never catch an edge but sometimes have to work to hold one. all in all i think its a great park board that you can venture out of the park with as well

"One word *sick!*" 12/3/2011

(0) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: Light Weight/ All mountain, Priced just right, great graphics
Cons: None, None, NOne

Experience: Let me start off by correcting everyone who puts this board down when it comes to powder. Ive owned and riden this board for one season so far 50+days. I rode this in powder, Im talking waist deep powder in Colorado in Utah. Rode it more than 10 times in waist deep powder and it is amazing! The V- rocker feature makes the board float nicley on the powder. The lifted nose and tail hleps significantly as well. As any powder rding should be done you just set your stance closer to the tail and your good. As for park riding i give this board 5 out of 5 stars. Ive ridden many park boards and i know this is the best board for park. The board is soft flex 3 great for buttering you can literally drop a shoulder and butter 9's thats how good is board is. Its almost impossible to catch an edge on this board. This makes jibbing effortless and less risky. bottom line is dont hesitate to buy this board YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED. I'm 58 180lbs i recommend the 155cm for someone of my height and weight. the board goes for about $300USD now i also recommend the burton custom Est binding to go with it.

"Jibbers' Dream" 11/30/2011

Helpful Review? (0) Yes

(0) No

Name: Burton Whammy Bar Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Pros: High flex, Good Pop, Catch Free

Experience: This is the board for people that want to spend their whole day in the park. The midspoon felt a little weird at first but after one run i was used to it. The board can also handle most jumps too. The only issue i had going off a jump was when i went off a 45 ft booter. It made it difficult to stick the landing but its still possible to do.
