When it comes to riding the Greatest Snow on Earth, you might want to consider a specialized board for floating through the light dry powder that falls over Utah's mountains. If your board is too short, you can get stuck in the flats when charging back to the lift. But, a board that is too large can feel like you're trying the captain an oil tanker down the mountain. Burton understands this dilemma and has developed the Fish, a board that is seemingly made for riding the Greatest Snow on Earth.
With a wide nose and a tapered tail, you can get the float you need and still be able to turn on a dime. The large nose keeps you on top of the snow out running your friends in the flats without the rear leg burn commonly associated with running laps on the Tram at Snowbird or taking cat runs at Powder Mountain. If you want to feel like your surfing the mountain, the Fish is an excellent choice for any powder hound.  Kristian Jelm prepares to take his Fish back up the hill. |
