The Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Snowboard is built for riders who want one board that can handle nearly every kind of mountain terrain. Its directional shape and tapered profile help the nose stay afloat in deeper snow while maintaining quick response, strong edge control, and confident handling when conditions turn firm. From groomers and powder to trees, hardpack, and technical lines, the Hometown Hero delivers the versatility, stability, and freeride performance needed for a dependable all-mountain setup.
Directional Camber: A blend of rocker and camber in the nose combines float and control while camber under the back foot drives with power and stability.
Flex:
Personality: 5 - 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Twin Flex: The flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch.
Infinite Ride™: This Burton-exclusive technology allows maximized pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Flat Top, Flying V™, or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.
Directional: The classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while still giving you plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.
Balanced Freeride Geometry: Burton's Balanced Freeride Geometry ends the age-old twin vs directional debate with setback camber and a sidecut that is centered on your stance to create a twin freestyle feel when riding flat base, but on edge it turns tight and quick with the float and prowess expected from a directional deck.
Pro-Tip™: A tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.
12mm Taper
Super Fly II™ 700G Core: Stronger and lighter woods target specific areas of the core to provide pop, strength, and reduced weight.
Dualzone™ EGD™: The wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges on two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core for consistent edge-hold and added strength.
Laminates:
45˚ Carbon Highlights: Carbon Highlights optimizes each layer of the fiberglass matrix and adds a full tip-to-tail carbon layer to reduce weight and fine tune torsional feel to achieve different ride characteristics. A 60° fiber angle creates a highly maneuverable and playful feel, while a 45° fiber angle provides a more aggressive ride.
Base:
Sintered WFO: Infusing a specially formulated wax deep into the pores of this extra-absorbent, high-density sintered material results in an ultra-durable base that stays wide open all season and in any condition.
Freeride Focus: Family Tree boards are designed with a freeride mindset for the best off-piste turns possible.
Super Sap® Epoxy: A resin formulated with bio-based materials that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional all-petroleum-based epoxies. Less oil consumption means even less of a carbon footprint per board.
