Compare two models
How they compare
Both boards are designed for freestyle riding. The Burton Custom Flying V has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Burton Instigator Flat Top uses flat (neutral base between bindings; predictable, often paired with rocker toward tips/tail).
