Description of Burton Vapor Snowboard:
The Vapor Snowboard stands above all others for lightweight performance. Alumafly core construction makes it the lightest and most technically advanced ride in the Burton line. Rip steep lines and toss huge step-ups on this featherweight ride. The inside of this thing is actually 90% air by volume. Burton's lightning-fast sintered WFO base allows you to rip at unreal speeds while the Multizone EGD construction transfers all power to the edges for precision control. With the Vapor Snowboard, Burton has built the ultimate responsive board for the most demanding riders. *Available for US Shipment Only. *We can't control the color of board you get, but who doesn't like surprises?

Bottom Line: The Burton Vapor Snowboard is the closest thing to riding on air.

Awesome, but not for rails!   11-24-07

This is an amazing board. It's super light, has great pop off the kickers, and carves better than a fat man on Thanksgiving! It's even great on ice! But, please, please don't ever take it jibbing , you will tear the S**T out of it. Please, take it all over the hills, in pow and around trees.

Outstanding board   02-27-08

I purchased this board last year (on sale, here) to replace a 5 year old Burton Custom. I was quite hesitant about the purchase, given the astronomical list price. Worse, the Burton catalog and website, provided an abundance of vaporous (pun intended) hype, but little useful information for the potential purchaser. I finally made the purchase based on the substantial mid-season price reduction. Having used this board for the equivalent of a full season, I am very happy with the purchase. First, the board is quite light. Largely due to that fact (I assume) it is also very responsive. Doubtless, the technical "marvels" Burton extols contribute substantially to performance, but I suspect weight is a major factor, as well. Second, the board has worn well: there is hardly any evidence of use, though I almost exclusively freeride with it. Third, construction quality is first rate, at least compared with the older Custom, which began to disintegrate after about 3 seasons use. Forth, it rides well on most conditions, but becomes unstable on icy terrain. Finally, it has a good "feel", by which I mean that the terrain can be sensed through the board, allowing appropriate rider adjustments in real time. In summary, this is a nice board, but suffers from very high pricing.

Overpriced for the performance.    05-12-08

This was fun to rock the groomers with, but it tanked in the pow, tip dove straight to the bottom. You have very little stance options on this board, and it is a bit to stiff to do anything but go fast with it. For the money, I would rather go with a T6 or Custom X.
