Burton Women's Feather Wide Snowboard

Sized slightly wider than the rest of the Burton Feather collection, this Women's Feather Wide snowboard is ideal for anyone who thinks that they might be dragging their toes on narrower boards. Along with the added toe space, the Feather Wide offers exceptional value for new riders. That's because some women's entry-level boards don't have much to offer after you figure out how to make consistent turns on the blue runs. While other companies churn out near-disposable beginner snowboards, Burton used quality components in their Women's Feather Wide snowboard, creating a reliable all-terrain freestyle snowboard that enhances the brand reputation--and creates dedicated return customers. The Feather Wide features Burton's Fly wood core, a balance of lighter woods in specific areas for better response and denser woods where support is essential. Bi-directional layers in the Biax React fiberglass give the board a little more flex than boards with Triax fiberglass, giving you a little more forgiveness when you need it. The Lightspeed Vision Base offers an incredibly smooth extruded base that can glide even without wax. The "Vision" in the name means that you'll never have to worry about others looking at dull graphics when you drop off a berm. Keep in mind that the Feather Wide has a negative core profile, not an even core profile that sometimes offers more stability (and possibly some future limitations) to beginners. The negative core profile could lengthen the learning curve a tad for a few riders, but the advantage is that new female riders learn how to control the board through independent foot control sooner than riders who later transition (with added expense) to a negative core snowboard. Because most Burton boards feature a negative core profile, transitioning from a Feather Wide to a more advanced design doesn't require much adaptation.
