tldr; Volume-shifted powder surfer. Short, wide, and floaty. Pure pow fun but terrible on hardpack. Quiver board for deep days only.

โ€œSuch a shame.. I have the [22/23 version](https://www.behance.net/gallery/142439021/The-Greats-Uninc) of this board. That season they also had a different graphic for each size from an artist named JP Kalonji . Itโ€™s crazy how they went from that to thisโ€ฆ Yes posted a lot of AI generated ads when they merged with Lobster. Feels like both brands were better on their own before the mergeโ€ฆ at least for the graphics/ brandingโ€

Best praise vs top criticism for Burton Custom

Best Praise
+186 pts
โ€œIt's rare on this subreddit where I see one of these posts and think 'hmm yeah that's probably worth it.' A relatively new Burton Custom with step-ins should reasonably resell at $300. One condition is If the bindings are too small by two sizes then it's probably too small for you though. Meaning, if those are size small bindings and you need size large, my eyeballs say they're not fitting on there.โ€

โ€œItโ€™s hard to believe that new custom isnโ€™t AI artwork. I like it but definitely has that AI slop feeling to it.โ€
