Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Snowboard

If you're the guy whispering in hushed tones about top secret lines, talking in hand signals known only to you and your tightest crew, we have the board for you. The Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Snowboard is the choice of superlocals, hidden stashers, and all-season slashers. Designed to blast through bunk and lay waste to chunk on its way to the holy land of deep funk, the Hometown Hero is an all-around ripper's ride. A moderately stiff flex and directional camber profile combine with a little taper and a lotta setback for a ride that lays the hammer through pow and crud alike. You're never going to achieve hero status by dinking around: get charging!

Product Details

Rocker Type

Directional CamberA blend of rocker and camber in the nose combines float and control while camber under the back foot drives with power and stability.

Flex

Personality5 - 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Twin FlexThe flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch.

Shape

DirectionalThe classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while still giving you plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.

Balanced Freeride GeometryBalanced Freeride Geometry spec setback camber and a sidecut that is centered on your stance to create a twin freestyle feel when riding flat base. On edge it turns tight and quick with the float and prowess expected from a directional deck.

Pro-TipA tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

12mm Taper

Core

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

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

Recycled 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.

Additional Features

The Family Tree CollectionBased on existing shapes, but tweaked to make them even better for your ultimate day of riding, the Family Tree boards come in a range of gender-neutral sizes and shapes built for all types of riders. Designed for powder, but capable of conquering any terrain, these deep-seeded shapes shine from the resort to the backcountry.

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

EST® Binding SystemBy removing the materials from beneath your feet and replacing them with cushioning, Burton is able to drastically reduce weight and explore entirely new designs. With EST®, the possibilities for flex is infinite, and so are the stance options.

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

18% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite SparA high‑performance blend featuring ramped up strength in a soft‑flexing package.

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

AutoCANT SensoryBED Cushioning System™ with B3 GelDual-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

Zero-Lean Canted Hi-Back DesignYour legs don't go straight up, and neither should your hi-backs. This ergonomic design follows the natural contours of your left and right legs to maximize control and comfort. Riders who prefer a more playful and relaxed feel will dig the Zero Forward Lean design on select hi‑backs. As always, you can still choose to crank ‘em forward for quicker control when carving or climbing icy pipe walls.

Kickback HammockA lighter weight upgrade to the heel hammock, this two-piece heel hugging hiback is literally suspension in a hiback. Dynamic interaction between an internal spring and rubber over molded hammock results in increased response and reduced vibration while your heel is cradled in complete suspension.

MicroFLAD™The higher the Forward Lean angle on your hi-backs, the quicker you heel-edge turns. Crank them forward for icy hits in the pipe or back them off for jibbing. Tool-free and micro-adjustable for easy fine-tuning and maximum angle options.

18% Short-Glass / Nylon CompositeA high‑performance blend featuring ramped up strength in a soft‑flexing package.

Straps

Hammockstrap™Reactstrap roots in a stitch‑less construction for ultra‑response with minimal materials. The addition of a nylon cross spine equals a more direct connection with the board.

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.

Flex SliderMakes strapping-in a breeze with a strategically stretched hinging zone that allows the heel strap to flex and fall fully open. Thanks to science of forced molecular alignment, the Flex Slider is also incredibly strong.

Buckles

Double Take Buckles with Insta-ClickBe the first to drop in with the rapid ratcheting of Burton's Double Take Buckles. Helical teeth and "Insta-Click" engagement combine for increased torque per crank, faster uptake, and fewer cranks to tighten. The result: vastly improved strength, speed and ease of use.
