Resonator Family Tree Powsurfer Snowboard

About the Burton Resonator

Surf-inspired design meets traditional snowboard construction in the Burton Resonator Snowboard. If you're wondering, "where do the bindings go?" They don't. This classic powder shape is designed to surf sans-straps everywhere from your backyard to the backcountry.

Produced by Varial Surfboards, the FM foam core with the infused biaxial construction makes this board incredibly light but also super tough. Considered by most to be the best surfboards in the world, featuring their adapted aerospace construction, this is hands down the lightest snowboard ever made, without sacrificing durability.

The long, large rocker up to the wide nose is well suited to powder riding, as the front of the board will float effortlessly over deep snow. It promotes a naturally set-back riding position, helping to lift the nose and creating a stable, surfy ride that's easy to turn. The nose also features scooped-out 3D profiling- raised points around the edges which reduce contact with the snow and help the nose plane and float through the freshies.

The deck itself is concave to create better traction, holding the foot in place in much the same way a skateboard would. This underfoot curve gives good contact points at the toes and heel and improved power transfer to the edges.

The bottom of the board is also shaped to maximise turn-ability. A ridge running length-wise down the middle of the base, with slight concave on either side, creates a raised contact point along the bottom. This works with the concave deck to make it easy to roll the board from side-to-side and edge-to-edge.

Altogether, this is one super-fun casual cruiser that harks back to the very earliest days of snowboarding and allows you to surf the snow wherever you are. Snowboarders of all styles and abilities will love the unique experience of riding without bindings, whether you're a beginner who wants to work on technique or an expert rider looking to take their powder game to another level.

From the first early-season snowfall to the deepest powder days, the binding-less Backseat Driver from Burton is the perfect recreational board for messing around on snowy backyard sessions or sledging and snurfing in the hills.

Please Note: The Resonator includes with a leash-line attachment loop, and we provide a leash with the snowboard for free. We recommend this is used at all times so your board can’t run away from you! When riding the Resonator on a mountain or in a resort, we recommend consulting with the resort operator before hand to ensure that it complies with their health and safety rules.

Paste wax is recommended to increase glide as needed. Do not use traditional snowboard waxes.
