Buttery soft, twin-tipped, and souped up with the latest tech ingredients, the X8 links with the NEW E.S.T. binding system for a playful, skate-line connection that takes board feel and control to previously unattainable levels. E.S.T. Technology even allows for infinite stance adjustability. Paired with a deliciously tasty two-year warranty, the soft-riding Burton X8 Snowboard 2008 is simply irresistible.
