Burton Snowboards has officially announced itself to the 3D snowboarding world this past year with the release of their Family Tree line. While 3D snowboards aren't new, eg spooned noses have been around on snowobards for a while, and my old powder board has an inverted spoon on the tail to help 'shoot' snow out. Over the past few years brands have ramped up their 3d shapes, and new brands have entered the market, some with more success than others. Enter Burton.

No doubt a little late to the party in adopting 3d into their base shapes, they flew into the scene this year with some pretty wild entries including the Kilroy 3d, Double Dog and the most aggressive... the Deep Daze. This snowboard has hydrodynamic channels, two on the front and five on the back. Grooves in the base that give more lateral pressure and steering control, especially in the environment this board was made for: deep powder.

This is a powder machine! Tapered, set back, directional profile and flex, Burton pro-tip and core milling so it's light weight. And it's pretty wide; the 159cm is 260mm, so great if you got long feet, but still narrow enough you can get edge to edge quick.

I took this out in the Alpine in low vis, in the trees in deep pow, and the ride out to slush at the base. This snowboard definitely excels in the powder and trees. Not being the longest (and cause of the bad vis) it was solid in the steeps, but the cruisey trees and mellower powder is where is excels. It is also great and breaking new lines and getting the powder stashes other people can't reach.

This is an instant classic in my book, and definitely worth checking out if you get the opportunity.

I would like to thank Marcos at Burton Snowboards and Comor Sports for giving me the opportunity to ride this board. Make sure to check out the Burton website for more info, and drop into Comor Sports when you're in Whistler, Canada.
