Root snowboard. Burton.

Blog Widget by LinkWithin

Traditional snowboard design dictates that freeride boards should be stiff, unfriendly planks that prefer carving turns to spinning off cornices. Burton turns the concept of a big-mountain board upside down with the all-new Root Snowboard, featuring the cutting-edge Nug Raduction technology that lets you downsize your board by up to 10cm without compromising high-speed control or deep-snow float.

-Nug Raduction technology uses a wider shape, longer effective edge, and extended contact points for big-board stability with short-board maneuverability (downsize 8-10cm from your normal board size)
-Flat Top profile uses a large stable flat zone with rocker in the tip and tail for a floaty, forgiving ride that still feels solid at speed
-Squeezebox core profiling offers more effective longitudinal energy transfer for bigger ollies with less effort
-Slightly tapered shape (5mm) for effortless float in deep snow and quicker edge-to-edge transitions
-Triax fiberglass for a responsive ride that still feels playful
-Side Effects lengthen your contact points for more surface area and better float in deep snow
-Frostbite Edges extend slightly out from binding-mount zones for predictable, powerful grip in all snow conditions
