Rider Skill Level: Intermediate/Advanced.Terrain Types: Resort/All Mountain Riding.I view it as Burtons response to Magne-Traction, but I know a lot of people who swear by it. They are supposed to give you a better edge when turning. For instance, they invented a new type of edge called frostbite edges. Since 2009 Burton has made a lot of improvements to snowboarding tech. It was so light and only had weight because of my Ride Capo bindings. The weight of the snowboard freaked me out the first time I picked it up. I’ve had epic times shredding in powder, and it has great pop.
The snowboard itself responds to turns and carves well especially at higher speeds. Let me know in the comments how that went for you. If you’re a park shredder and wanna try it out (or have). Personally, I’m not a park rider, and didn’t have a lot of fun in that area, but if you know what you’re doing. The Burton Custom X is a fast, hard hitting snowboard that you can ride all over the resort. The numbers don’t lie no matter who puts them up though. Keep in mind my scoring is an opinion and the aggregate score should be taken with a grain of salt. Hands down it’s one of the most exciting snowboards I’ve ever shredded on.
If you’re an all mountain shredder, and you love to go fast, this is the snowboard for you. Either way, I still love each and every one of my custom X snowboards. However this might be due to the size of the board and not the snowboard itself. The only downside, the stiffness gave me some issues in regards to maneuverability. These snowboards are stiff, fast, and fun to shred on. I purchased my first Burton Custom X in July of 2009.
