The custom this year looks so sick! On another note, I'd be super interested in watching a video going through the new AK line this year, looks like they have some dope colors!
I hate that a "good looking" board now is just black and white; there are so many boards out there that are just black and/or white. It's so boring, I miss all the fun, bright colors from 10 years ago. To get anything with color now, you have to get women's gear which usually is too small.
If you can learn to ride on a full camber board that's pretty stiff, then you are never going to need to upgrade to another board type. Worth taking the extra time.
I currently have a 153 Floater from 1998! Looking for my next board, haven’t been on it for a while. Really I weigh exactly 180, I like the free thinker, but tossed on size, probably 157. I can’t find any good free thinker reviews, any thoughts on going from my vintage board to the free thinker?
In all honesty any board you get is going to be a big upgrade from the classic Floater. The Free Thinker is a pretty rad board. It’s a high end park board that can ride anywhere! FREE THINKER-> www.the-house.com/search?term=“Free+thinker”
Considering a board for my Dad. Midwest riding. 63 years old. 5’11” 220 lbs. both hips replaced so he is concerned about taking a bad spill. Athletic from lots of bike riding. Aside from a burton throwback at the sled hill He has not been a board with bindings since 2010. It was a burton indie. He was good on it. He grew up snurfing. He likes cruising around long board style on greens and blues. Occasionally hits a baby jump some kids made for a foot or two of air. Torn between instigator and rip chord. He is not entirely a beginner but he is concerned what could happen if he took a bad spill on midwest conditions. He also likes the idea of the new step on bindings. Which ones would pair well?
Great video!! 6-2, 220 advanced intermediate looking for a Burton '23 carving board with a great edge for going fast safely on groomers. Could you recommend a size and type please?? Many thanks in advance...
There's a few good boards, but for an Intermediate rider id 100% check out the new Territory Manager in a 165, it is one of my favorites for this year. It's like a tapered Custom. All the benefits of a Custom but with a little bit more in the nose for more float and quickness into your carves. BURTON TERR MGR-> www.the-house.com/bufttm142073zz-burton-snowboards
So I have the Burton Process Flying V. I’m a beginner (4 days total) but I can link turns right now. I’m 5”10 around 190 with size 11 boots. I plan on hanging around groomers or pow, not much for park. Did I get the right board, or should I go and try and get the custom?
I'm currently looking for a new board, can't decide which one to get flight attendant or custom x or maybe something else? Now i'm riding custom flying V it's fun but i'm looking for something faster, in my situation it's like 80% of the time speed/carving and 20% powder, can you help me? Thanks!
Either of those boards would be rad but its up to you, The Custom X is basically a suped up version of the Custom. Basically a Custom that will be more aggressive and jumpier feeling edge to edge. The Flight Attendant will be closer to the Custom "aggressiveness -wise" But with the tapered shape you'll get WAY more float in the pow and slightly more aggressive turning when riding regular with really easy exits out of your turns. Cant go wrong either way. CUSTOM X: www.the-house.com/search?keywords=%22custom+x%22 FLIGHT ATTENDANT: www.the-house.com/search?term=%22flight+attendant%22
It’s more of an all-mountain/freeride board. Pretty much for someone who wants to ride the whole mountain but is not spending much (if any) time in the park. The Burton Freeride Ladder vid is releasing soon, keep your eyes peeled! 👍
Love your vids, thank you so much for your work! Could you help me choose the right size? I decided to go for the custom because even if my riding style is more playful I want a board which I can use the next years and grow into it. I mainly drive piste with a lot of freestyle (180/360, side hits, butters). My hight is 172 cm and weight because of working out relatively high with around 80 kg. I consider everything from 150 to 156cm. I know that the shorter ones are easier for butters and spins but would lead to less stability while carving or less pop. Maybe a 154 is the best right in the middle? Thank you so much!
@@thehouse in fact I have another question. If I want to ride the custom as true twin, do I have to place the bindings a certain amount to the nose? Because I’m reviews are said that the contact points are like a twin anyways, wouldn’t it completely throw off the boards traits if I shift the bindings more forward?
@@drsteee Yeah just set it up normal, the stance is centered on the sidecut so it will feel like a twin board on flat snow. The little extra length in the the nose will only come into play when you get into some deeper snow and it will offer a little more float
Hey guys, nice video. I'm currently riding a Rossignol templar 2017 (hybrid camber) with Rossignol cobra bindings and Burton ruler boots. I've been advised at the shop to go with the templar as I'll be less bored after a few years compared to a beginner board. I ride about 2-3 days a year since 2018, and I'm still struggling with my toe turns and so I'm getting a hard time controlling my speed. I don't ride often enough to get my learning curve to progress as I would. I love riding, but the fact that I'm often catching edge, I'm a bit discouraged. I'm so thinking of buying the ripcord or investigator with FX bindings as both boards seem more appropriate to my level and my time spent riding and enjoy a bit more my day. What do you suggest between the ripcord and investigator ?
If you are already riding stay away from the Ripcord, you are already beyond the skill level for that board. The Instigator will be a way better fit to help you progress your riding. INSTIGATOR: www.the-house.com/buiftm140013zz-burton-snowboards
Honestly that is an easy decision. Just ask yourself how much park you ride. If you spend a good amount of time in the park go Custom, if you spend little to no time (or have a park board already) then go with the HTH. BURTON BOARDS -> www.the-house.com/snbd?routes={%22fs%22:[{%22f%22:%22Brand%22,%22vs%22:[%22Burton%22]}]}
Oh man, you are in a po-tay-toe, po-tah-the situation there. Both boards are for the same style of riding, similar features and even the same price. This is a VERY rare situation where you could actually pick a board based on the graphic and it really wouldn't matter. Really cant go wrong either way
Im 175 cm size 9 boots 130 pounds I got a free thinker 154 on sale as the 150 wasnt available the have the same wieght range and i like to ride as fast as i can on groomers do lots of jump lines and side hits but also want to use this as a daily driver for all mountain freestyle do you think i shouls be fine or should i co sider selling?
Hi Why you dont put home town Hero in this list ? I want to chose and all around board and I’m doubts between custom and home town hero ? Do you have some advice ?
I would go with the 162, you are pretty light for your height but you still have a higher center of gravity and more leverage over you board so youlll want that little extra stability. No need for a wide with a size 11. Check out this video for a great visual explanation on that -> ruclips.net/video/Pkaolp6A9b4/видео.html
I’m 6”3 200lbs, I ordered the Burton process 162W, but I’m starting to think I should have ordered the 159W, getting a little more playfulness. What do you think?
At 6’3” I definitely wouldn’t go any smaller than the 162. You might be a little lighter for your height, but you still have a higher center of gravity.
Those boards are very similar constructions and riding style. There is a difference in the shape, but I wouldn't say there's enough to ditch the HTH. One isn't going to ride better than the other in chop
I’m new to snowboarding and I’ve a experienced friend said a snowboard can only use for 1 season cos the texture will be damaged but still OK for beginners as we just don’t feel it, is that true?
Up to you, both boards will work great for that riding style. Biggest difference would be the HTH would be a little more snappy and aggressive edge to edge and the FA would be a little smoother feeling. Can’t go wrong either way though 👍
Hey kind of a different question but when you set up bindings do you want the same amount of boot toe/heel hang? I’ve seen that you don’t want the bindings hanging over the rails at all but when it comes to the actual boot is even toe/heel best or better to have slightly more heel hang etc.. thanks!
You 100% want your boots centered. It’s the most important adjustment. Check out this video for a great visual explanation-> ruclips.net/video/ccjC4oRbMRo/видео.html
What’s the difference between the process pure pop Camber and the Custom Camber? Also is the Custom lighter or stiffer? Rode a 57 process pop camber last winter for a week and liked it but found it got a tiny bit chattery on fast runs. Was pushing 55 mph+ , just wondering if the 58 Custom Camber would be a slight upgrade over the process. Looking for a all mountain board but can’t decide if the custom is worth the extra $
For sure, camber is more aggressive and always wants to be on edge, flying V is more catch free and floatier. One is not better than the other they are just different. I LOVE the flying V version of this board myself. Check out this video about boards bends for a great visual explanation -> ruclips.net/video/kHoFYC050cA/видео.html
So I have the custom X and have been able to ride it as my first board ever. I would say I am an intermediate rider. I like speed but would rather have a less speedy board than the X. I would like to just cruise and relax more than going ripping down the mountain. Would you recommend just the custom or even instigator? I’m 11.5 boot/ 200 Ibs Thanks
Hey guys, I‘m an advanced rider and need a new board. Most of the time I‘m carving and ripping slopes at high speed (I would say I can carve really well). But I‘d like to learn how to bring a little buttering into my carving and take some side hits. Custom (camber or flying V) or Custom X?
Nice video! I just need your advice.... i cant decide between Process FV and Custom FV. I just want some allmountain / freestyle / fun board which would be great to park, groom and powder. I know the Custom is more stiffer than the Process, but are there any other differences? I am 176 lbs (80kg) and 5'9" (180 cm) - what size would you recommend for me? Thank you in advance for your reply.)
I'd go 156 Custom or 157 Process. As for between the 2 boards Id say if you like to ride park more that 50% of the time you will probably like the Prosess a bit more. IF you ride the park 50% or less then the Custom will be more to your liking. CAnt go wrong either way though, both boards rip!

@@thehouse thank you for your advice, just one more question about sizes - i have 11 boot (44 EUR) is it still OK for 156, or 158 would be better..? because the 158 is a wider board I think..and one information about my height - its 5'11" (180 cm) I wrote it wrong in my first comment..
@@edafiedler8896 For a size 11 you don't need a specific wide board. Although becasue of your height You might want to bump up the size a bit. Taller means higher center of gravity and more leverage over the board so a little bit longer would help with overall stability. I'd go 159 Process or 162 Custom (again based on the percentage of time riding park to the rest of the mountain)
Just purchased the Burton custom Flying V with the step on genesis . Is there any difference between the ‘22 and ‘23 photons ? I’m torn as to which boot to get between that and the Swath
Jason mentions the ref stance on the custom is centered between the contact points. What about the set back? I always thought the ref stance includes the set back.
Not all the time, there is to standard as to what the "Setback" is on a board. The Ride Warpig is similar. They call the stance "centered" (because it is centered on the sidecut but if you measured from the inserts to the tips it is "setback"
@@bendezy11 I would go with the 162, the Custom would be a great replacement for that old Aftermath. BURTON CUSTOM-> www.the-house.com/bucm150968zz-burton-snowboards
If I wanted to hit bigger jumps and ride powder a bit more often, would the free thinker or the custom camber be the better choice? The burton site gave the free thinker more points in park and pow, but this vid gave some other points that said the directional tip might be better for pow
@@thehouse Thank you! I'm mainly a park junkie but I want to venture out on the pow more, would the custom still be better that way? I realized I phrased my earlier question in a way that suggests I want to ride more pow than jumps, but it's the other way round
@@ACEsevaeron If your primary focus is park then the Free Thinker would be the better option. Just take your stance and drop it back a bit for the pow days.
My GF saw the Custom and wanted it so bad. She was so bummed when she found out it was a men’s board and they didn’t have it in her size. 😂. She loves the neon color.
what size custom for an all mountain rider 5'10" 220 lbs. my weight fluctuates a lot being in the bodybuilding world so it's hard to pick a size. I fluctuate from 200-225. I ordered a 158 but I'm worried it's going to be too small. resort riding only

Not true, if you take care of your board it can last you a lifetime no matter what your skill level.
Flight attendant or hometown hero? Mostly just carving groomers, all mountain cruising and some small jumps/off trail
Up to you, both boards will work great for that riding style. Biggest difference would be the HTH would be a little more snappy and aggressive edge to edge and the FA would be a little smoother feeling. Can’t go wrong either way though 👍

Taller means higher center of gravity and more leverage over the board so a little bit longer would help with overall stability. I'd go 159 Process or 162 Custom (again based on the percentage of time riding park to the rest of the mountain)
Should I blow £700 on a custom x?
Up to you, that is an AMAZING board.
Just purchased the Burton custom Flying V with the step on genesis . Is there any difference between the ‘22 and ‘23 photons ? I’m torn as to which boot to get between that and the Swath
Check out this video, its all about the 23/24 StepOn Line up. -> ruclips.net/video/NpUruabkki4/видео.html
@@thehouse yeah i watched that before this one . I was more or less looking for your opinion .
@@kylesykes6110 It's really just personal preference in flex. You can't go wrong either way.
Jason mentions the ref stance on the custom is centered between the contact points. What about the set back? I always thought the ref stance includes the set back.
Not all the time, there is to standard as to what the "Setback" is on a board. The Ride Warpig is similar. They call the stance "centered" (because it is centered on the sidecut but if you measured from the inserts to the tips it is "setback"
@@thehouse so the 1.25cm setback on the custom is only because of the longer nose and shorter tail after the contact points?
I think I’m going to do a custom camber what size should I get if I’m 258 and size 9.5 foot
How tall are you?
@@thehouse 5”11 I’ve been riding a burton aftermath board 2013, would the custom be comparable?
@@bendezy11 I would go with the 162, the Custom would be a great replacement for that old Aftermath. BURTON CUSTOM-> www.the-house.com/bucm150968zz-burton-snowboards
Where's the Skeleton Key? I wanted to hear if it had updates.
Coming in the “freeride ladder” vid soon!
@@thehouse niiiice, thanks!
If I wanted to hit bigger jumps and ride powder a bit more often, would the free thinker or the custom camber be the better choice? The burton site gave the free thinker more points in park and pow, but this vid gave some other points that said the directional tip might be better for pow
I would go with the Custom for sure. Little bit better outside the park. www.the-house.com/bucm150968zz-burton-snowboards
@@thehouse Thank you! I'm mainly a park junkie but I want to venture out on the pow more, would the custom still be better that way? I realized I phrased my earlier question in a way that suggests I want to ride more pow than jumps, but it's the other way round
@@ACEsevaeron If your primary focus is park then the Free Thinker would be the better option. Just take your stance and drop it back a bit for the pow days.
My GF saw the Custom and wanted it so bad. She was so bummed when she found out it was a men’s board and they didn’t have it in her size. 😂. She loves the neon color.
Tell her to check out the Feelgood, it’s the women’s equivalent of the Custom. www.the-house.com/search?term=Feelgood
Tell her to follow Angry Snowboarder so all her needs are met.
…honestly I wish he would review some Burton.
There is no such thing as a womens snowboard.... just marketing to weird consumers Hung up on labels
Burton is woke.
💯
Why?
what size custom for an all mountain rider 5'10" 220 lbs. my weight fluctuates a lot being in the bodybuilding world so it's hard to pick a size. I fluctuate from 200-225. I ordered a 158 but I'm worried it's going to be too small. resort riding only
I might of bumped you up to the 162 but you’ll be fine on the 158
Burton as been putting out fire lately
Agreed!
