Here is a brief description of the Burton Vapor Snowboard for the 2009 year: With Carbon Vaporskin Lite Construction, this snowboard is as light as smoke. This is the same technology found on space shuttles for ultimate lightness during launch. Imagine how you’ll blast off jumps – you might even escape gravity and spin off into the void. In addition to being ultra-light, the new Pro-Tip technology reduces swing weight to help you rip an extra 180 with ease. If that’s not enough, it will also help you float over feet of fresh powder. The Infinite Channel System is for snowboarders who know how they like to ride; this feature allows for the most specific fine tuning of board to binding on the market, making your ride anchored to comfort. Check out the Burton Vapor Snowboard, your ticket to the ultimate lightweight performance this side of the Alps.
Then there is the lite description – Carbon Vaporskin Lite: Lighter, faster stronger. This is the same technology that makes spaceships light enough to launch. This board is so light it feels like you’re riding on air. Farewell gravity! Infinite Channel System: An interface unlike anything else on the market, the ICS offers the ultimate bond between board and binding. Fully compatible with any Burton binding, this simple slot gives you a level of adjustability that no traditional insert pad could ever provide.
Ok so burton is definately prone to some hyperboly. But the tuth is that you notice a lot of what they say when you ride one. It is really responsive and lite. Probably due to the Core Material Alumafly Honeycomb- That has to help the light factor.
