2007/2008 Burton Custom X Review

The Burton Custom X is the ultimate shred stick, it excels on any type of terrain imaginable.  I took the 158 everywhere and over everything in Utah it and destroyed absolutely everything in its path.  I also took the 156 to the park for a day and could not believe how well it performed on all the features for me despite it being quite a stiff board.  If your looking for a board that will never be lacking in speed the Custom X is definitely for you.  The Sintered WFO Vision Base has two speeds Stopped and Mach 5.  Also this year all of the modes have an increased waist width with the exception of the 156.  Even at extremely high speeds the X maintains its stability perfectly.  A new tech upgrade for this year is the Vaporskin which reduces the weight of the board by an impressive half a pound.  The Pressure distribution edges also provide a little more grip and will come in handy for those who ride in icy conditions.  In addition to all these tech features the Custom X is wrapped up with some clean and fresh graphics.  Bottom line this board will conquer anything you can throw at it.  The Custom X retails for $750 but I have seen many good deals out there so look around and capture this board while you can.
