    Product Description

    When it's Japow deep, the Burton Family Tree Smooth Operator snowboard wants to cut through like butter. This is not your typical surfy powder board. Designed with legendary Japanese team rider Masanori Takeuchi, it blends 3D shaping and full-length control to blast through deep conditions at speed. A single-channel mount system gives you stance options that match the conditions and objectives of the day.

    Features

    Freeride Focus
    Family Tree boards are designed with a freeride mindset for the best off-piste turns possible.

    3D Shaping
    Surfboard-inspired concave shaping in the tip and tail, combined with a traditional base through the middle, blends edge control and surfy freedom for an unexpected yet responsive ride in all conditions, from deep powder to groomers.

    Directional Camber Bend
    A blend of camber under both feet and a rockered nose maintains stability through variable conditions and plenty of float in soft snow.

    Directional Control
    Its directional shape and flex keep you carving and slashing with total control.

    Lightweight Feel
    Super Fly® 600G Core is a dual-species wood core that is loaded with pop and reduces overall weight without limiting performance.

    Like kindred spirits, each Family Tree board features subtle yet colorful Audubon graphics that speak to its personality. The Smooth Operator highlights the graceful crested ibis, channeling its artful motion and grace at speed, just like the board.

    About Burton

    Burton was born in the mountains from the mind of Jack Burton Carpenter in a Vermont barn in 1977. This brand is what brought snowboarding to life, its founder actually created the first snowboard by building a standalone board that allowed him to surf the snow, we have much to thank him for. The Burton snowboard was just the beginning.

    For over 40 years, Burton’s apparel and snow gear has taken the world by storm. They’ve taken their heritage stride by stride to build a snow accessories and clothing powerhouse.

    All of their products are constructed to withstand even the harshest conditions whilst looking great too - for you to make the most out of every adventure. As an added plus, everyone at Burton cares. They care about boarding. They care about people. They care about our environment. Everything from Burton is a conscious and positive step towards a more sustainable future for us all to enjoy!
