OVERVIEW

Whammy Bar V Rocker

Burton’s award winning Whammy Bar is unfortunately, not a snowboard trick, its actually a snowboard. If it was a trick, however, it would probably be the equivalent of a triple cork down a double kink. With the extra-pressable and bite-free powers of V-rocker, Mid Spoon, Scoop Tips, and Rail Ready edges, its pretty much impossible to catch an edge on. Might as well just send in the sponsor tape now.

V-Rocker
Continuous rocker between your feet and in front of your feet towards the tip and tail creates catch-free playfulness and improved float from peak to park. Frostbite Edges enhance power and grip, balancing the board’s overall loose and forgiving feel.

Dualzone™ EGD™
The wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core, for superior edge hold and added strength.

Rail Ready™ Tune
Beveled so you can slide without hang-ups, yet still get grip for slashing and jumping.

Infinite Ride™
This Burton-exclusive technology allows us to maximize pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks the board in for you. Whether you choose to ride Springloaded, Rocker or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season. Infinite Ride—ensuring the core values for years to come.

Scoop
This exaggerated tip and tail scooping turns up the edges for a looser, more forgiving feel that adds catch-free fun when riding everything from a knee-high box to neck-deep pow.

Negative Core Profile
The team favorite! Thinner sections of core between the bindings soften flex and torsion for a more playful feel and added foot control that’s perfect for everything from park to pow.

Ellip Kicks
This elliptical tip and tail shape promotes pop while providing added float and clearance when riding pow and variable conditions. For maximum Wu and elliptical extremeness, check the NEW Ellip Kicks on the Love.

NEW Mid Spoon
A slight base convexity between your feet creates a super loose, catch-free feel that jibs without hang-ups and improves edge-to-edge flow in fresh snow. Choose the serving that suits your style—get Mid Spoon with the power of camber on the Jeremy Jones or the looseness and fun of V-Rocker™ on the NEW Whammy Bar and Blender.

The Channel
Now on more boards and evolved for greater performance, the Channel(M6) has staked its claim in the marketplace as snowboarding’s most direct connection. Focusing power through a central connection that evenly distributes energy for added rebound and snap, it also lets you easily micro-adjust your stance width and angles. The addition of M6 means we’re using a standardized hardware size that improves upon performance and ease-of-use, and allows for compatibility with all Burton bindings as well as bindings from select competitors, making it a choice for any rider.

Twin Shape
The shape is perfectly symmetrical for a balanced ride that’s equally versatile when ridden regular or switch. Jib, spin, stomp, and butter with a greater balance of freestyle mobility and cat-like stability no matter which way you point it.

Twin Flex
The flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that’s equally versatile regular or switch, frontside or backside.

Dual Density Triax™ Fiberglass
Dual-density fibers from tip-to-tail strengthen the board without changing the weight or overall buttery nature Biax™ fiberglass is famous for. 

Sintered Base
Durable and highly porous, get added durability and superior wax absorption for greater overall glide.
