Burton Family Tree Backseat Driver Surfing Board

While you can ride in standard snowboard boots, many riders prefer a boot with a grippy, lugged outsole for better traction on the board's surface. Since there are no bindings, your boot's grip is essential for maintaining control and stability.

This board is specifically engineered for deep, soft powder. It lacks the metal edges required to hold a carve on hard-packed snow or groomed runs, so it will feel unstable and difficult to control outside of backcountry or backyard powder conditions.

The board comes with a specialized leash that attaches to your front leg or waist. It is a critical safety feature designed to keep the board from sliding away down the mountain if you fall in deep snow.

The 140cm length is designed to provide maximum float in powder while remaining maneuverable for surf-style turns. It is a versatile size for most riders, but your weight and the depth of the snow you typically ride will determine if this specific length provides the float you need.

No, this board is strictly a binding-free pow surfer. It is constructed without the necessary inserts or structural reinforcement to support traditional snowboard bindings.
