How they compare
the Burton After School Special leans more all mountain, while the Burton The Throwback leans more powder. The Burton After School Special uses a twin shape while the Burton The Throwback is directional. The Burton After School Special has a flat profile (neutral base between bindings; predictable, often paired with rocker toward tips/tail), while the Burton The Throwback uses other (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Burton After School Special is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the soft range.
