The brainchild of Danny Davis, the Free Thinker Snowboard brings a poppy, pow-friendly take that's sure to be devoured by the mountain's most aggressive and creative riders.

Click in and open your mind, man!

Product Details

Rocker Type

PurePop CamberAn advocate of powerful turns and poppy precision, camber speaks to the core values of board design. Offering a snappy suspension, camber distributes weight evenly over the entire length of the board for smooth, continuous edge control from tip to tail.

Flex

Moderately StiffForgiving in variable conditions, but aggressive on groomers and in powder.

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

Shape

TwinPerfectly symmetrical for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch. Jib, spin, stomp, and butter with a greater balance of freestyle mobility and cat-like stability no matter which way you point it.

Pro-Tip™A tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

Core

FSC™ Certified 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.

SqueezeboxBurton's most versatile Squeezebox profile improves pop and performance through the balance of thicker, more powerful core sections with thinner, more flexible sections. Rider energy is transferred outward from beneath the feet, energizing the tip and tail while making the board snappier, more stable and easier to manipulate.

Laminates

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 more aggressive ride.

Base

Sintered WFO BaseInfusing 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.

Edges

Frostbite EdgesIntroduced by Burton long before all the hype about wavy "serated knife" edges, Frostbite extends out slightly beneath your bindings for tremendous edge-hold on hard, icy conditions. Powerful when you need them, playful when you don't, Frostbite Edges are hungry for hard-pack while remaining smooth, slowing, and forgiving.

Additional Features

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.

Super Sap® EpoxyA resin formulated with bio-based materials that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional all-petroleum-based epoxies. Less oil consumption means even less of a carbon footprint per board.

Binding Compatibility

The Channel™ Mounting SystemStronger, faster, easier, and more adjustable -- The Channel™ gives you ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings (not just Burton's).

Product Details

Flex

Medium FlexThe happy medium of binding flex. Medium flex models perform equally on all terrain. Great for progression - responsive, comfortable and forgiving.

Baseplate

Single Component 30% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite BaseplateMore responsive yet playful. One material throughout creates consistent response and feel for all-terrain domination.

Re:Flex™ Binding SystemOffers more flex, feel, and cushioning than traditional disc bindings, in a package that's universally compatible with all current mounting systems, including 4x4, 3D® (via Burton Rider Service, sold separately), and the Channel®. The minimized, cored base-plate with Living Hinge™ disc reduces the weight and footprint of the binding, while also bending freely for a more natural flex.

Re:Flex™ AutoCANT FullBED Cushioning System with B3 GelDual-density EVA automatically settles your boot into a natural position regardless of stance width of 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.

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.

Living Hinge™This exclusive technology eliminates hardware and weight, but allows you to adjust your Forward Lean and hi-back rotation independently.

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

Reactstrap™ Featuring Red Wing® LeatherMinimized construction that houses a 3D® curved triple axis spine with an ultra-responsive wrap that conforms to any boot.

Gettagrip Capstrap™ Featuring Red Wing® LeatherGrippy rubber wraps response around the toe of the boot for a locked-in fit and pressure-free comfort.

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

Dual-Component Smooth Glide™ BucklesFeel how easy buckling in can be with the most reliable buckles in the industry. The upgraded performance of the dual‑component design offers a polycarbonate barrel for improved ratchet tongue life. All buckles feature aluminum levers and steel bases for strength you can trust.
