Burton Family Tree Cheetah Snowboard - 2012

The brainchild of legendary shredder Terje Haakonsen, the Burton Cheetah Snowboard was built for one purpose: absolutely ripping through powder. Traditionally cambered for powerful, snappy turns, the Cheetah is also set back two inches and features a tapered swallow tail for unmatched float in neck-deep pow. When conditions are on, be confident that you're racing to the top with a Cheetah.

  • Cambered profile offers tons of pop and smooth, continuous edge control from tip to tail
  • Triax fiberglass gives a versatile flex and response for all-mountain performance; Carbon I-Beam ultralight carbon 'backbone' increases pop and longitudinal snap
  • Super Fly II uses lighter and stronger woods to provide pop, strength, and reduced weight
  • 5mm taper uses a narrower tail for effortless turn entry and exit, as well as superior float in powder ; Swallow Tail at end and longer nose further enhance float
  • Directional shape utilizes a slightly longer nose to improve control and float in all conditions
  • Sintered WFO base is infused with a specially formulated wax in the pores of this extra-absorbent sintered material for a durable base that stays fast all season long
  • Infinite Ride process consists of Burton overbuilding the board, and then breaking it in at the factory, for a ride that stays crisp and poppy season
  • after season after season
  • Pro-Tip uses a thinner tip and tail for reduced swing weight
  • The Channel allows you to micro-adjust you stance over a greater length and an infinite range

Bottom Line: Terje's powder destroyer.

Precisely designed by Terje himself, the Cheetah is designed for speed and floatation. With camber and a slight tapered profile the Cheetah is the board you'll want to pull out of the quiver on those overhead days.
