Rider Profile: All Terrain/ Park Riders Aimed at beginner to intermediate riders who are looking for a versatile & easy-going freestyle board, the Descendent is perfect for developing riding skills both in the park & on the mountain. Shape Overview: Twin The Descendent utilises a fully balanced, park-inspired twin-tip shape with twin flex. This innovative design reduces weight at the tip & tail, cutting swing weight to an absolute minimum. By reducing swing weight, you reduce the momentum at the extremities of the board, giving the rider more control & feel. That reduction in nose & tail volume also allows the designers to give the board a longer effective edge. So not only does the Descendent give you great control in the park, but it also rips on the piste because you’ve got more edge in contact with the snow. Profile: Pure Pop Camber To deliver the ultimate in control & feel without sacrificing response & pop, the Descendent utilises Burton’s innovative Pure Pop Camber.

Now to dial in the perfect easy-going flex, the core is re-profiled with Squeezebox Low. Adding thicker & stiffer zones just outside the feet, it creates a direct energy transfer to the tip & tail while enabling a softer, smoother flex between the bindings. To give the Descendent its more forgiving ride, it utilises bi-ax glass structural layers. These deliver a playful, torsionally soft flex that makes learning a breeze. Base To deliver exceptional performance in all conditions, the Descendent utilises a super-fast sintered base material.
