Burton Vapor Snowboard

Item #BUR3797 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Responsive & Lightweight

By Ranked #178 - All Mountain Snowboards January 14, 2011

Having also ridden the T6 and Custom X in the past, I was surprised by how responsive the 2011 Vapor rides for it's light weight. This is truely a surprisingly light board. The T6 was light but not stiff and folded in half after only a couple rides. So, far the Vapor has surpassed my expectations.
I would say that the only negative is that the maximum length is 162. They should offer at least a 166. Maybe next year?
