Sierra Says: The Burton Vapor has got to be the most technologically advanced snowboard on the market. With an aluminum honeycomb core and a new vaporskin carbon topsheet, it is poppier and lighter that ever before. Riding the Burton Vapor will take your snowboarding to new levels. It is an advanced snowboard that will be super fun for intermediate riders to step up to and progress some new skills with. When I rode the Vapor I was amazed at how well it rode at high speeds, it is very stable even through the crusty stuff. This year they made a new size of 150 for the smaller shredders or even for the ladies.

This year they made a new size of 150 for the smaller shredders or even for the ladies. Burton Says: If your board weighed nothing, would riding become effortless? Would anything you imagine suddenly seem possible? Would you become so light that you could float above, rather than on the snow? The most technologically refined snowboard on earth, the Vapor erases the line between mind and mountain, allowing you to ride any terrain with more control and ability than ever before. **The Burton Second is covered by Burton's warranty. The Burton Second meets 100% of Burton's manufacturing standards except for the graphical blemish on the top sheet, these Burton Seconds snowboards are brand new and are stamped second on the base. The Burton Seconds are a great deal and when you receive yours you will see that graphic blemish is so small or hard to even notice. This board is sick!!!!! Terrain Uses

3/4/2008 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Pros: at last i got to ride the burton vapor and indeed it was everything people have been talking about. i thought the vapor was just an overpriced board, but it rode unlike anything i've ever been on in my 17 years of riding. super poppy and soft, yet at high speeds it holds and edge and carves just like a super stiff snowboard. light under feet and most responsive edge to edge than any other board. at full price it's questionable whether or not you need to spring for the vapor, but at half off i can safely put my name behind this board.
Cons: have to keep an eye on it while at the bar or lunch
Other Thoughts: i tested bens vapor at northstar in tahoe on a groomer day...haven't been in powder yet with it. but i'll be on the burton malolo for those days anyhow.
3/1/2008 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Pros: Great for pretty much anything. Jibbs, street, park, groom, and back country. Tons of flex and pop, fastest and best board youll ever ride.
Cons: Most likely will get stolen make sure you lock this back boy up.
Other Thoughts: Sick deal for a sick board.
