  1. If you are just choosing from burton, All of their boards are great.

    You need to choose your own board based on preference.

    What kind of riding will you be doing? Freestyle or Freeride? Terrain parks? pipes? Backcountry?  

    ~If you want a free ride board, I would suggest the Custom. It is a great all around board, Plus the one you are looking at is EST, which i have heard great things about.

    ~I would not even suggest the Blunt, seeing how bad it sold in stores as it was the only thing they had plenty of. It is more of a beginner board.

    As for Bindings, the same thing applys. The bindings are all great, but they really depend on what kind of flex you want.

    If you were looking for free ride bindings, the C02 would be the one. (This will also fit on the est board).

    As for the EST bindings, i would suggest the Cartel EST, Which they do not show on burton site.

    It can be found Here: http://www.rei.com/product/767662

    They will go Great with the custom ics board, the patterns match and it looks really cool.

    If you have Big feet ( size 10.5 or bigger) i would suggest the HOD as its got boxer tech. Otherwise, The sabbath


  2. Specify what you're going to be riding, and your xperience...

  3. Well I can see you're mostly concerned with making sure all your equipment matches and that Burton continues to get richer.

    I think you should get a Skate Banana.  http://www.lib-tech.com/snowboards/skate...

    What Lib Tech has done with the edges is intense and amazing.
