The Burton Barkeeper should be your top shelf choice when it comes to a fun, spring loving freestyle snowboard. The mid flexing, full cambered, twin shape gives plenty of pop and edge hold to keep you going in the sloppy spring slush while the 3D spoon nose and tail keeps things interesting and a little looser underfoot and not bogged down when things get real rough. Skill Level: Intermediate Board Type: All Mountain Park: 10/10, All Mountain: 7/10, Powder: 3/10 Camber Type: Positive The original, tried and true camber type, and the advocate of powerful turns and poppy precision. Traditional camber is the most aggressive camber type, offering unmatched power, response, and edge control. Flex: 5.5/10 (1 = soft, 10 = stiff) Twin Flex - This board flexes the same in the nose and tail, allowing you to ride, pop, and press the same in regular and switch. Shape: Twin Constructed exactly the same tip to tail, this board is designed to provide consistent performance when riding in both switch and regular. Core: Super Fly 800G - Light and loaded with Pop, this core uses dual-species wood in dual density vertical laminations to reduce weight and stay strong. Dualzone EGD - The wood grain of the core is positioned along the heel and toe edge in two unbroken zones perpendicular to the rest of the core, which gives consistent edge hold and strength. Triax Fibreglass - This triaxial fibreglass creates a versatile flex and consistent response for performance across all types of snowboarding. Base: Sintered This base made from a durable and highly porous base material that provides added strength and wax absorption for long lasting glide. Mounting System: The Channel The Burton Channel system forgoes your traditional 4-screw mounting system and introduces a channel for your front and rear inserts. This allows you to fine-tune your stance width, and gives you more freedom in your stance location. The Channel is compatible with most major binding brands, but works best with Burton EST bindings. Additional Features: Infinite Ride - Burton is able to maximise pop and performance by overbuilding their boards in the factory, and then using machinery to break it down for you. This allows your board to ride the same from day one, to day 100, season after season. Pro Tip - The tip and tail of this board taper out at the points, reducing swing weight and promoting mobility.
