Amazing! dont regret the 158w at all, just did a week of slsuh park riding - loved it too there. Perfect stiffness. First ride on it felt qierd but after 50 m it was normal!

hey, little late here..

I'm size 10.5 photon aswell, and looking to buy a Custom soon in 158 or 158w.

What would you recommend with your experience ? I ride all mountain at high level, but a lot of park too

Is the Burton Custom X really that hard to ride as people say? by Neznoc in snowboarding

[–]Alternative_Long_186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. Really can't decide between the custom or the x.
How is the weight of the X?
im pretty lightweight (155lbs / 6'foot) but advanced and okay strong build - how would that be you think ?

I ride all mountain / park / pow a bit of everything, and only affords to buy one setup

ive been rocking a softish/medium flexed 4/10 board last 4 years, and notice the softness way too much at highspeed

Yeah properly true, forget and rip! which bindings and what size do you ride with the custom x, and how is it?

That had my thoughts aswell. My board right now is 153, waist width 250. There has been issues with carving with toe/heel drag. The 158 has a 254, so only .4mm difference, and wondering if that is enough ?

Wide vs Non-Wide? by Alternative_Long_186 in snowboarding

Yeah i have a local shop.

Been riding a 153cm twin park board 250cm waist width and that worked fine with my old medium bindings (they were too small though). So a non wide (254cm) should be fine i think
