Sierra Says: The Palmer Burn is one of the best all mountain freestyle snowboards around. With a centered stance and a directional flex this board can be twined out for the extreme park days or setback for all mountain shredding. We recommend this board for the intermediate to advanced level riders who want to step up their freestyle performance but still maintain all mountain shred-ability. You will not be let down by its Klothoid sidecut either which is more forgiving so to allow easy edge to edge transitions while also being more catch-free. Launch big, ride fast, and shred hard with the Burn. Can we say Custom X Killer?

"Palmer - Burn" 1/14/2010
Helpful Review?   (5) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Smoth Ride, Stronge Edge Hold, Very predictable
  • Cons:  may be too stiff for some,

Experience:   First off I got this board as a warranty return from last years model. Warranty service was a little hard to track down as HEAD handle the warranty issues for Palmer, but once i figured it out they were Awesome. Now on to the board. I am more of a All Mountain or Free Rider so i really dont spend much time in the park. When HEAD first told me what i was getting because my old board was now discontinued thought did cross my mind to sell the deck when i got it. Fortunately enough it looked so sweet I just had to take it out for a little taste. Thus far I have ridden it a couple of times in Utah and i have to say i like it very much. The board can storm the groomers and carves nice in the POW even though it is not a powder board. This board like all Palmers has great stiffness and is fast but can nose dive quick if the POW is over a foot and you lean too far forward (End of the Day Mistake). I really like the POP on the board and the edge hold is close to godliness. I would highly recommend this board to anyone who likes to go fast, hit nice drops, and wants a solid deck that rides harder than them. I wish i could give a better review on the park for this board but its just not my thing. However i am keeping the board and can hardly wait to ride it again.

"I GUESS THAT'S WHAT AN OVER $500.00 BOARD FEELS LIKE!" 4/19/2010
Helpful Review?   (2) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Light, Holds an edge like nothing I ever tried before, Sick Graphics!

Experience:   I have purchased this board because I simply couldn't stay away from the steal Sierra Snowboard offered: MSRP $559.00, I got it for $179.00!!! The best snowboard purchasing decision I have ever made! This board is amazing! As an all-mountain rider, I am loving it; the direction change feels like it's almost telepathic, you just think which way to go and this board takes you there. I rode groomed and ungroomed trails from frozen snow to slush, this board did not disappoint. It felt very stable, it can turn on a dime, holds an edge very-very-very good, it's light, all in all an exceptional board!

"A Great all around board" 7/5/2010
Helpful Review?   (1) Yes    (1) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Pros:  Easy turn initiation, Rides switch with ease, great on groom, pow, bumps, park and pipe!
  • Cons:  The base picked up dirt and got slow in the spring,

Experience:   I bought this board last year in the summer and got a great price from Sierra! It rides so well in all conditions. I would recommend this board to any one that is looking to improve their riding. This board performs well in all conditions, from hard pack ice to powder. I ride in the the mid west(Indiana, Perfect North Slopes, to be exact)hard pack is common. this board handled it all .I rode out west this spring and was lucky to get two powder days, the board as great. I rode park and pipe and the board performed well. I would recommend this board to any one.

"Burn down the mountain" 5/4/2010
Helpful Review?   (1) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Light and stiff, Good graphics without being too flashy, Super stable at high speeds
  • Cons:  Topsheet scrapes off easy around binding mount,

Experience:   This is my first high dollar snowboard, it was well worth the money. The burn has really good edge hold at high speeds or going down the steeps. Super stable at high speeds bombing down black diamonds at N* and other steep trails. On powder days it did good but it will leave your back leg burning. Cuts thru ice like its nothing. Has good pop to make your ollies higher. After a couple days od riding I noticed that around the binding mounts the topsheet was getting scratched off by the bindings. But since its under the bindings when riding you wont notice it. Other than that its a really good board that will enhance your skills or take them further.

"Refreshingly fun board" 4/13/2010
Helpful Review?   (1) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Fun ride, Versitile, Graphics
  • Cons:  Not as fast as I hoped,

Experience:   So I finally hooked up a new board after riding the same Salomon for a bunch of years. I'm more of a powder snob but wanted an all mountain freestyle for spring park fun and cruising with my 9 year old son. I typically ride a 164 but went with the Burn in a 160. First impression on a 12 pow day is fun. I like the feel of a softer board. Switch riding is so much easier than my old board and I can finally do butters. Ollies are big and landings seem forgiving. The only down side is its not quite fast enough for some of the flats on Mt. Hood. That is more of a Meadows problem though. Bombing runs leaves me a little bit meh. Not as stable at high speeds but edges hold well enough. Maybe I should have got the 162......but then again I dig the maneuverability. It does float surprisingly well in the powder. I like it. Great all arounder.......and a steal of a deal from Sierra!

"Feel the Burn" 3/10/2010
Helpful Review?   (1) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Amazing edges, Mild stiffness, Pop!
  • Cons:  Medium butters, Haven't tried pipe,

Experience:   I'd have to agree with Sierra's review of this board. All around freestyle board if by all around freestyle you mean enjoying the park as well as making the mountain your park. Medium/mild stiffness but still has excellent pop. Switch riding never felt so natural. Amazing control at high and slow speeds. Jib'ing machine. Light weight. Awesome edges. Extremely forgiving on under/over rotations and sketchy landings. Groomed/ungroomed with ease. Ice killer. Noticed ollie's are a bit higher. After two days of riding I'm not sure if its just over excitement but I feel like anything is possible with this board. Not that it matters, but the 2010 logo graphic is sick. I'm 6' 2 190 lbs and this is probably the most natural board I've ever ridden (though I haven't ridden a Custom X). Great all mountain and all around freestyle (slope style) board. Only thing I haven't tried is the pipe.

"Burn baby Burn" 8/27/2010
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Liviana, Sostiene los cantos,
  • Cons:  la tapa se raya facilmente,

Experience:   Tabla muy versatil y responde rapidamente a los cambios de peso, inicia las curvas facilemnte y sin esfuerzo, su forma twin facilita andar en switch y hacer butters en la nieve, ollies,nollies lo que sea. El problema para algunos puede ser que no es una tabla muy rapida y no es tan flexible como otras tablas de park.

"good board for carving" 8/23/2010
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2010 Palmer Burn
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Pros:  Fast. Very, Very Fast., Good Carving, Good control
  • Cons:  It tends to control you, No wrap around edges, Quite stiff (this size)

Experience:   I'm a beginner boarder who's never had his own proper gear before this season, so this review should be noted as such. I'm also about 5'8'' and 145 pounds, pretty lean. Did buy the Palmer Burn for myself, but ended up riding it less than a 152 Nitro Runaway Gullwing (yeah, girl's board). The Burn is a 158 hence a little on the big side for me. It was used on the groomed slopes @ Mt. Buller, Australia on very slushy/wet conditions. It was paired with Union Sierra bindings. I used it less than the other board but still can compare the two. Compared to the Nitro, the Burn is extremely fast! It floats so well and it can carve like crazy! I think it also holds an edge better. The downside is that it's hard to control at high speeds (by me, at least) and it is quite stiff. To make a comparison, the burn is very latino - fast, easy to control (when you respect your level with it) and lots of fun, whereas the Nitro is quite soft and compliant, and you can do anything you want without getting your head bitten off. When going too fast or being disrespected, the Burn definitely grows teeth and throws you around like nobody's business. Overall, I would recommend this board (maybe a couple of sizes smaller?) to someone that knows what they're doing or wants to learn the dangerous way. I wouldn't take it in the park, but on the slopes it's a lot of fun (and possibly predicament). It's a great board for the purpose! Probably as a downside it should be mentioned that it doesn't have a wrap-around edge hence it may be prone to splitting at the ends if hit hard or used in the park. Oh, and I got it on 70% discount. How cool was that!
