Instigator Flat Top 2025

2025 Burton Instigator Flat Top Snowboard You can get straight to the good stuff with the Burton Instigator Snowboard. It's an all-around board with a catch-free, stable ride that boosts your confidence anywhere you take it. The combination of a Flat Top bend and Cruise Control convex base keeps it fluid, friendly, and easy to control. The universal compatibility of the ChannelA(R) mounting system means it works most major bindings, including Burton's. CAMBER PROFILE Flat Top(TM) - A flat profile between the feet means stability, better balance, and continuous edge control. The tip and tail kick up with an early rise outside the feet for the catch-free and loose feeling you'd expect from a rocker profile. FLEX 0-3/10 - Soft Twin Flex - The flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch. Cruise Control - Boosts confidence with the catch-free combo of a softer flex and mellower edge tune. On tapered boards like the Instigator and Feather(TM) the nose is fully convex for allterrain stability SHAPE Directional | 5mm Taper - 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. Pro-Tip - A tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility. CORE FSC(TM) Certified Super Fly 800G - Lightened up and loaded with pop, Burton's dual-species wood core utilizes dual-density vertical laminations of alternating softwood/hardwood to reduce overall weight with no sacrifice in strength or performance. Dualzone(TM) EGD(TM) - 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. Squeezebox Low - With an overall easier feel, Squeezebox Low brings high-end core profiling technology to the progressing rider. Stiffer zones just outside you feet create a more direct energy transfer to the tip and tail, while enabling a softer, smoother flex between the bindings. The end result is more control with less effort from the rider. LAMINATES Biax(TM) Fiberglass - Features a jib-friendly, torsionally soft flex for a forgiving, park-friendly feel. BASE Extruded Base - Speed, strength, and graphical pop in a base that requires little maintenance. Pass your friends without even waxing. ADDITIONAL FEATURES Super SapA(R) 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. BINDING COMPATIBILITY The ChannelA(R) Mounting System - Stronger, faster, easier, and more adjustable -- The Channel(TM) gives you ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings (not just Burton's).
