Burton Fish Snowboard 2009

This item is currently out of stock.


Sierra Says: "The Fish is a perfect board for deep pow riding. This board comes with a 30mm taper which makes it almost impossible to nose-dive in powder, even if it is 5 feet deep of fresh. Compared to the Fish LTD this board is slightly easier to ride because its not as stiff and aggressive . If you want the full potential of this board you need to hike up hill, cat trip it, or make a heli drop off."
** Only Burton bindings will be compatible with the ICS system on this board**

Burton says: Shakas, slashes, and cold smoke. Terje, Nico, DCP, Jake and JG just can?t get enough of me. I?m that funky board attached to folks whose smile can?t be shaken by the snow stuck to their teeth. As if I couldn?t be any easier to ride, this year I get the new Swallow Tail and S-Rocker to enhance my already ridiculous float and agility. The Infinite Channel System gives me unlimited stance options with any Burton binding and the ability to surf barefoot with the new EST ShredBED accessory (sold separately).

"Gone Fishin'" 2/25/2009
Helpful Review?   (3) Yes    (1) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Use:  Carving,Groomers,Powder
  • Pros:  Durable, Easy to carve, Stable at high speeds, Strong edgehold, Stiff, Well known brand

Experience:   once you ride a tapered board, youll never go back. its like a drug... but a good one. short, narrow tail with the swallowtail really sinks down in the snow, while the long, wide nose with a big nose kick stays on top like crazy. not only that, but now with the 09 model, you get rocker on the nose, so its even better. long story short, this is the "most floaty" board on the market. no need to size up.. and only size down if you ride a lot of tight spaces. otherwise, id recommend riding the board at your normal all-mountain size, or whatever is closest. needless to say, it kills it in pow. super maneuverable, super floaty, super stable, fast... i could go on for days. now lets get to the less talked about part.. groomers! people get so weird about tapered/setback boards on groomers. why? i have found them to be MORE stable and carve BETTER than your typical twin or twin-ish board. very stable and fast and carves like a knife. also.. sure, s-rocker is meant for additional float, but it helps on groomers. it takes a lot of the edge pressure away from the front and puts the main edge hold back between your feet, for the most part. tapered boards (with normal camber) tend to be a little hooky from the front because theres so much more nose, thus more edge hold coming from the front. if youre a good rider you will overcome this in the snap of a finger, but at the same time, its nice if you can avoid it. overall... killer pow board! and the less obvious part is that its actually perfectly awesome on groomers, so dont hesitate to buy it if your resorts pow runs only last for part of the run. have tons of fun shredding groomers on the way back to the lift.

"The Fish Scares Snow!" 12/8/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Use:  High Speeds,Low Speeds,Off Trail,Powder,Ungroomed
  • Pros:  Great POW Board!, A steal! (I bought mine at 70% off),

Experience:   I finally got to take the Fish out today at Sugar Bowl! This is a great pow board! Seriously, it's like the snow is afraid of the Fish- it runs away from the front of the board. I rode my Burton Seven for half the day and the Fish for the other half. It was so easy to ride pow on the Fish. It almost feels like you are floating- and my legs and hips didn't hurt while riding. Us 34 year olds need all the help we can get. This is my #1 favorite Sierra purchase. It was a steal! (#2 Sierra purchase is my Seven.) Say what you will about Burton- they make fantastic products. I can't wait to take this board up again.

"Fish + Powder = Conscious Nirvana." 10/9/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Use:  Carving,High Speeds,Off Trail,Powder
  • Pros:  Fast, Fast, Fast., Easiest turns on powder, Super Rad 80's topsheet.

Experience:   An Incredible powder board, I have never had so much fun getting that real surf feel in powder! It's says to size down 2-4 cm from your reg. board length but, I ride a 158 on groomers, and I think the 160 is just fine. I'm 5'11 165#, and the 160 works just perfectly. The Swallow tail and narrow taper make the turns near effortless.

That would be powder only. Not boxes, rails, jumps, groomers, etc. POWDER good, though.

"160 FISHY" 8/26/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Use:  Groomed,High Speeds,Off Trail,Powder,Ungroomed
  • Pros:  LIGHT,VERY MANEUVERABLE,GREAT CONVERSATION PIECE,
  • Cons:  NONE, WELL BORING GRAPHICS MAYBE,

Experience:   I've been riding for 24 years and can honestly say this is the best board I've owned. It holds it's own on groomers. faaaaast base. I liked the FISH so much bought 2, so I could let a bro try ride it. I just bought a Malolo 10 hours ago so look for a review on it (thanks Sierra Snowboard). Rip Washington POWDER

"Phenomenal Powder Board" 8/5/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Use:  Powder

Experience:   Exceptional evolution in the progression of snowboarding. On a powder day at Northstar last season, I demoed a 160 Fish from the previous year (2008) and then a 156 of one of these, and the 156 killed the older version. The combination of the S-rocker and the swallow tail made it far simpler to center up your weight and do away with leg burn. My only complaint is that I wish they made bigger sizes for more big mountain-type riding.

"Sick - Even on North Eastern Packed Ice and Groomers" 6/25/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Use:  Groomers,Powder
  • Pros:  Durable, Stable at high speeds, Strong edgehold, Great value, Soft

Experience:   No Cons - Slick base makes this beast a speed machine. Most of my time is spent riding packed ice or groomers here in the north east. I tool this baby out on a powder day and never stepped back on to my vapor through the whole season (I did use a T6 in the park so I could Blow out my ACL - Season ending with class). Even on groomers this thing is a blast. It's like riding a surf board. It's so tapered, all it wants to do is turn. I get a lot of looks, but the thing is such a blast to ride. When I am lucky enough to get a POW day, she owns the mountain. I can grab a tree line and float everywhere. Where others have a hard time getting through, I float effortlessly. I feel like such a pimp riding this thing in 12 of fluff (yeah - 12 inches in a day is a pow day for us here).

"Best Powder Board Period" 2/25/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (1) No

  • Name: 2009 Burton Fish
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Use:  Powder
  • Pros:  Durable, lightweight, Popular model, Great value, Well known brand
  • Cons:  Top sheet scratches

Experience:   I have owned this board for 5 years and this is the best incarnation yet. The Fish is by far the best powder ride I have ever had. The thing floats like a champ, turns on a dime and coasts on tricky powder flats past all commers. If you want to take only one board to the mountain buy a Malolo ... almost as good in pow. But for the ultimate Powder experience you cannot go past the Fish. At 50% its a steal .... and they hold up in resale too.
