Burton Speed Date 156W Lumilauta

THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE FAMILY

The Burton Family Tree Speed Date is the newest member of the family. This board wants speed and pow. The balanced freeride geometry makes the Speed Date a must-have on dump days and thanks to the aggressive sidecut and unique shape the board makes you look good on the groomers and at a banked slalom.

Riding Style
The medium-aggressive Speed Date is the freeride machine for the advanced / pro rider.

Shape
A Directional Shape is the classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while still giving you plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition. The 7mm tapered shape has a wider nose than the tail, promoting smooth turn entry and exit, stability at speed, and enhanced deep snow floatation. Pro-Tip® is a tapered tip and tail thickness, which reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

Profile
The Directional Camber features an entry rocker that causes the nose to lift while camber under both feet maintains momentum and stability through deep-driving turns and variable conditions.

Flex
Directional Flex features increased pop in the tail and a more resilient nose that allows riders to easily maintain control through all terrain and conditions.

Construction
The FSC® Certified Dragonfly® 600G Core uses of end-grain woods in impact zones allows us to swap heavier woods for lighter weight species without sacrificing strength. In four separate zones of the Multizone EGD®, the wood grain is perpendicular to the core adjacent to The Channel®—the area from which a rider’s power emanates—for ultimate strength and edge control. 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. 45° Carbon Highlights optimizes each layer of the fibreglass matrix and adds a full tip-to-tail carbon layer to reduce weight and fine tune torsional feel to achieve different ride characteristics. A 45° fibre angle provides a more aggressive ride. Super Sap® Epoxy is a 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. At theRecycled Sintered WFO Base, the wax is worked deep into the pores of this extremely absorbent, dense material. The result is an extremely durable base that stays wide open in every weather condition the whole season long.
Stronger, 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). In fact, Burton trusts it so much that all boards with The Channel are backed by a 3-year warranty. The Burton-exclusive Infinite Ride®technology allows maximizing pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.
