Used market
What to inspect and what not to confuse when buying used. Not on-snow reviews.
Burton Custom
Burton’s long-running all-mountain camber board. Used Customs are common, so price the base and edges, not the season sticker. Do not treat Custom Flying V as the same used buy — softer flex and a different camber feel.
Burton Custom Flying V
The catch-free Custom. Used Flying Vs are common and often priced like a camber Custom — they are not the same ride. Confirm the listing is Flying V, not Custom or Custom X Flying V, and inspect the base for edge blowouts.
