BURTON 2017 CUSTOM X WIDE

Pro-caliber is a strong statement for any board, but the Burton Custom X has repeatedly delivered for snowboarding’s most demanding riders due to precise design and powerful drive. The confidence is in the tech, which includes the carbon-fueled snap of Squeezebox High core profiling, a competition-grade base, and 45° Carbon Highlights Hi-Voltage for the ultimate in lightweight responsiveness. The hardest charging board we make, the 2017 Custom X is now available in two versions: choose the power of camber or the float and catch-free feel of Flying V™.

Features:

 BEND: CAMBER

SHAPE: DIRECTIONAL SHAPE

The classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while still giving you plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.

FLEX: Twin

The flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that’s equally versatile regular or switch.

FSC™ CERTIFIED DRAGONFLY™ 600G CORE

Use of end-grain woods in impact zones allows us to swap heavier woods for lighter weight species without sacrificing strength.

FIBERGLASS: 45° CARBON HIGHLIGHTS

Carbon Highlights optimizes each layer of the fiberglass matrix and adds a full tip-to-tail carbon layer to reduce weight and fine tune torsional feel to achieve different ride characteristics. A 60° fiber angle creates a highly maneuverable and playful feel, while a 45° fiber angle provides a more aggressive ride. Hi-Voltage models like the Antler, Antler Flying V, Custom X, Landlord, Landlord Split, and Skipjack include the addition of carbon strands to the angled fiber layers to add life and further reduce weight.

 BASE: Sintered WFO

Infusing a specially formulated wax deep into the pores of this extra-absorbent, high-density sintered material results in an ultra-durable base that stays Wide F!#@ing Open all season in any condition.

Frostbite Edges:

Introduced by Burton long before all the hype about wavy “serrated knife” edges, Frostbite extends out slightly beneath your bindings for tremendous edge-hold on hard, icy conditions. Powerful when you need them, playful when you don’t, Frostbite Edges are hungry for hard-pack while remaining smooth, flowing, and forgiving.

Pro-tip:

A tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

Infinite Ride:

This Burton-exclusive technology allows us to maximize pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Springloaded, Rocker, or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.

Squeezebox: HIGH

Profiled core for easier board control, more energy, and pop.

By integrating carbon fleece into the classic Squeezebox profile, we’ve loaded up our highest performance core profiling with more pop. Layered just outside your feet, the carbon enables almost instant response in the tip and tail.

Stronger, faster, easier, and more adjustable—The Channel™ gives you ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings (not just Burton’s). Better yet, all boards with The Channel are fully covered by a 3-year warranty. This means that if you have any issue with any part of the board, even if The Channel is in mint condition, you are covered.
