What’s a good wide snowboard with a good amount of flex?
Best answer:
Answer by afunnypickle
The Burton Custom Wide. The custom is a Great all mountain board. It is a “legend”. Its a good board that pretty much everyone (who isnt looking for a specialized board) loves.
I demoed this board and i didnt like it at first. I was given the beginner bindings like all other rentals and that really didnt help with the demoing. It wasnt until after i tried other bindings that i realized that thats what made all the difference.
The custom should have a good amount of flex, but i wanted a more snappier board, so i went with the Burton Twin, which is also a good all mountain board, Except that it is a midwide.
