Snowboard equivalent question?

Question

Hey,

Im looking at buying a burton custom X all mountain board, but I would also like to look at some alternatives that are relatively the same construction and specs. Does anyone know of any nice alternatives that I could look at such as Atomic, K2, or any other brand???

Answer 1

The Ride UL Concept 161 is a great board. I've actually got one of those along with a 68 Custom X. The Custom goes to Mammoth and the Concept goes to Bear.... The rides are both awesome though the Concept is a little easier to tweak and a little more fun in the park while the Custom is much better in the deep stuff.

If you're really looking for one "do it all" board, I'd highly recommend the Vapor. Its a bit nerve wracking jibbing a $1000 board but you can find them now for around $500 in which case they kick the shlt out of the Custom X & the Concept UL.... The other Ride Concept, TLS or something like that, is supposed to be more all mountain but I've never riden it.
