Burton Custom Flying V Snowboard (2nd Quality) vs Burton Free Thinker
Snowboards comparison — 2024-2025 season
Compare two models
How they compare
Both target freestyle terrain, while the Burton Free Thinker leans more all mountain/freeride. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. The Burton Custom Flying V Snowboard (2nd Quality) 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 Free Thinker uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise).
