Snowboards comparison — 2025-2026 season
Compare two models
How they compare
Both boards are designed for all mountain and freeride riding. The Burton Custom uses a directional twin shape while the Elan Ripstick 102 Black Edition is flat. The Burton Custom has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Elan Ripstick 102 Black Edition uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Burton Custom targets advanced riders while the Elan Ripstick 102 Black Edition is aimed at expert riders.
