Burton Counterbalance Snowboard 2026

The Burton Counterbalance Snowboard lives up to its name by creating the perfect equilibrium between freestyle creativity and powder performance, effortlessly balancing side hit sessions, deep stash exploration, and park laps in one beautifully versatile package. This true quiver killer achieves its rare balance through directional camber that blends stability underfoot with a rockered nose for float, while its snappy flex drives through turns on groomers and floats through deep days with equal grace. With gender-neutral sizing and a directional shape that keeps you carving and slashing with total control, the Counterbalance proves that finding your perfect mountain harmony doesn't require compromise.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Directional CamberDirectional Camber Bend has camber under both feet for stability through deep-diving turns and variable conditions and a rockered nose that adds lift for increased float

Flex

Directional FlexDirectional Flex features increased pop in the tail and a more resilient nose that allows riders to easily maintain control through all terrain and conditions

Infinite Ride™This Burton-exclusive technology allows maximized pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Flat Top, Flying V™, or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.

Shape

8mm TaperEasy turning, providing the feel and focus of a directional board without anything holding you back from riding it like a twin

All Mountain Directional ShapeDesigned to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while providing plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition

Core

Super Fly II™ 700G CoreStronger and lighter woods target specific areas of the core to provide pop, strength, and reduced weight.

Dualzone™ EGD™The wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges on two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core for consistent edge-hold and added strength.

Laminates

45˚ Carbon HighlightsCarbon Highlights optimizes each layer of the fiberglass matrix and adds a full tip-to-tail carbon layer to reduce weight and fine tune torsional feel to achieve different ride characteristics. A 60° fiber angle creates a highly maneuverable and playful feel, while a 45° fiber angle provides a more aggressive ride.

Base

Sintered WFOInfusing a specially formulated wax deep into the pores of this extra-absorbent, high-density sintered material results in an ultra-durable base that stays wide open all season and in any condition.

Burton Cartel X EST Snowboard Bindings

Responsive enough for all mountain charging, but built around a Dual-Component baseplate with the Hinge for extra ollie power, the Burton Cartel X EST Snowboard Bindings are perfect for all kinds of high level resort shredding. The EST baseplate gives you precise board-feel and the stiff highback provides maximum control for aggressive riding, allowing freestyle rippers to freely transition in and out of the park with ease.

Product Details

Flex

Medium-Stiff FlexHelps with quick, technical maneuvers, even at high speeds. Great for all-mountain carving, powerful freeriding and charging through the terrain park.

Baseplate

The Hinge™Exclusive to EST® baseplates, this Burton-exclusive technology flexes dynamically with your leg for increased foot roll, less fatigue and easier ollies.

45% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite LowerCarbon performance without killing your credit card.

30% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite SparSlightly more responsive than the 18% short‑glass/nylon composite, yet still plenty playful.

SensoryBED Cushioning System™Dual-density EVA automatically settles your boot into a natural position regardless of stance, width or angles for improved comfort, reduced fatigue, and more direct board control.

B3 GelThe same cushioning found in Burton's high-end boots for ultimate dampening that's formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temps.

Highback

Heel HammockA reinforced rubbery material wraps response around the heel of any boot. Run your straps a little looser and still get lightening fast response out of turns with your heel cradled in complete suspension.

DialFLAD™The higher the Forward Lean angle on your hi-backs, the quicker your heel-edge turns. Crank ’em forward for icy hits in the pipe, or back ’em off for jibbing.

Straps

Hammockstrap™ 2.0Everything Burton's team riders love about the Hammockstrap, but paired with Smooth Glide™ buckles for a reduced profile and more comfortable fit.

Supergrip Capstrap™ 2.0Minimalist design merges two materials into one technologically advanced toe strap. A firmer material in the spine provides a supportive and lightweight skeleton, while a softer over-molded material improves boot wrap and comfort. Featuring Ultra-minimized and fully injected with an over-molded design. Made ultra-durable, glue-less, stitch-less and PU-free construction. 3D curved with a triple axis spine as well as a true wrap toe window.

Buckles

Smooth Glide™ BucklesLightweight aluminum and polycarbonate levers give you season after season of buttery smooth and reliable ratcheting power.
