Burton or Palmer snowboards?

Question

Ok so I am choosing between the Burton Custom wide or the Palmer Rival. Which on is better for what I am doing. I want to freeride and freestyle like mix it up and I know both are all mountain freestyle boards. So now just between the boards which board is better in general? Also what makes each board different in their own ways. What are the specifics for the boards if u were to compare them?

Answer 1

I like the Burton, but I am also brand-biased, simply because Jake Burton created the very first snowboard ever.

Here's a couple factors you may want to consider:

1.  price (if both are in your ability, ...back to beginning)

2.  weight (lighter is obviously better)
