Burton Deep Thinker vs Ride Psychocandy

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Burton Deep Thinker leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Burton Deep Thinker 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 Ride Psychocandy uses flat_rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). The Burton Deep Thinker is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Burton Deep Thinker targets expert riders while the Ride Psychocandy is aimed at advanced riders.
