The Burton Fish 3D is the evolution of the famous Burton Fish, a worldwide favourite season after season. Natural selection has run its course and this Fish has adapted to the changing conditions, adopting a 3D profile to help it surf, slash, and speed past its competition in powder. The iconic fish shape remains the same but receives 3D profiling in the tip and tail, giving it surf-inspired float, responsiveness, and control when surfing that white wave. Featuring the classic double swallowtail for enhanced float and power through your turns, the Fish 3D is the same beast you've always known, now with some extra tricks up its sleeve.
Board Type: Powder
Powder snowboards are designed for deep snow. Generally these boards feature a directional shape with a tapered tail for better float and ease of riding.
Flex: 4.5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.
Ability Level: Intermediate
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Shape: Tapered Directional/Directional
A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.
Directional Flex increases pop in the tail of the board while having a stiffer nose that makes the board easier to control in all conditions.
Camber Type: Directional Flat Top
Directional Flat Top consists of flat camber between the feet and towards the back of the board give you stability and catch-free turns, with an early rise nose for effortless float.
Width: Standard
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Inserts: The Channel
The Burton Channel forgoes the traditional mounting system and introduces a channel for your front and rear inserts. This allows you to fine-tune your stance width and gives you more freedom in your stance location. The Channel is compatible with most major binding brands, but works best with Burton EST bindings.
Board Construction
Laminate: 45 ° Carbon Highlights
45° Carbon Highlights is a tip to tail carbon layer reduces weight and contains 45° angled fibres, fine tuning the torsional flex to make a more aggressive ride.
Core: Super Fly II 700G Core with Dualzone EGD
The Super Fly II 700G Core features stronger and lighter woods targeted in specific areas, which provides more pop and strength while reducing weight.
Dualzone EGD aligns the wood grain in the core along the heel and toe edge in two unbroken zones perpendicular to the rest of the core, which gives consistent edge hold and strength.
Base: Sintered WFO
Standing for Wide F!#@ing Open, this base made from an extra absorbent, high density sintered material that is infused with a specially formulated wax, resulting in an ultra durable base that rides Wide F!#@ing Open.
Additional Features:
Burton is able to maximise pop and performance by overbuilding their boards in the factory, and then using machinery to break it down for you. This allows your board to ride the same from day one, to day 100, season after season.
The tip and tail of this board taper out at the points, reducing swing weight and promoting mobility.
Super Sap is a bio-based resin that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional petroleum-based epoxies.
