Burton Custom ICS Snowboard
Burton's Standard Bearer

Ranked #252 - Freestyle Snowboards
April 6, 2009
The Custom has been around for as long as I can remember and somehow, I've never been on one. I finally demo'd a 156cm Burton Custom this past week. I'm willing to concede that the board may shine in parks and on smooth groomers, but in choppy crud, steeps, high-speed groomers, etc. it's not too great. The biggest problems are instability and chatter. It is a little stiffer than the Ride DH (which is more of a park board) but also manages to be less stable and more prone to chatter at speed. This board is in dire need of a tech upgrade that will smooth out the ride, rather than ICS/EST, which does nothing for the ride quality.
