Burton Custom X vs K2 Sky Pilot

How they compare

Both target freestyle and freeride terrain, while the Burton Custom X leans more all mountain. The Burton Custom X uses a directional twin shape while the K2 Sky Pilot is directional. The Burton Custom X has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the K2 Sky Pilot uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Burton Custom X is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
