The Burton Family Tree Straight Chuter Camber 21/22 is a freeride directional snowboard built for riders who want a stable, responsive board when venturing off-piste. It’s designed to handle varied terrain, from steep chutes to softer snow, without any extra fuss.
The board’s freeride directional shape sets your stance slightly back, giving you more float in deep snow and a confident feel when charging downhill. Its directional camber profile blends traditional camber under your bindings for pop and edge hold with a modest lift in the nose to help stay on top of powder. With a flex rating of 6, it offers a medium-stiff ride that balances stability at speed with enough give to tweak turns and absorb chatter.
The flex scale ranges from 1 (very soft) to 10 (very stiff), so a 6 means you get solid edge control and energy return without feeling locked in.
