Burton Method - 2010

Summary:

If you’re after a Burton Method for this season you’ll also want the latest snowboard accessory to boot… an anchor. Without an anchor to tie down the Method it might just float off into the atmosphere. The Method is the lightest snowboard ever built and with titanium edges, S2 Carbon Vaporskin Lite and an Alumafly core it’ll feel like you’ve bought a board filled with helium. Dominate the whole mountain without even knowing you’ve got a snowboard strapped to your feet.

Manufacturer's Description:

If you were handed the keys to Shangri La, what would you build? This was the question we asked our R&D team and the Method™ was their answer. With every resource and no restriction, the result is a paradigm shift in high performance. Using materials in entirely new ways, finely woven carbon strands, titanium edges, and strategically placed S2 glass results in our lightest board yet. When someone asked, “If we can, why don’t we?” No one argued.

You have to love how everyone is claiming the lightest weight and won’t put the stamp down on what it actually weights.  I saw a Yaqui 156 on a scale at 2.08 kg.

Yeah we need someone in a shop to weigh and post the weights of all the boards claiming to be the lightest board this coming season… but Titanium edges and Alumafly core… the Method’s got to be up there!
