Burton Feelgood Flying V Snowboard 2019 // Women's

I’VE GOT A GOOD FEELING ABOUT THIS…

Flex: Stiff // Shape: Directional // Profile: Flying V 

The Burton Feelgood Flying V Snowboard is waiting to become your homegirl. The Feelgood enjoys partying, shredding, and kicking it with her best friends on bluebird or pow days. Flying V design ties rocker and camber together so you get the best of both worlds. Camber under each foot allows the board to grip hard snow and provide tons of power, while rocker makes sure it still floats in powder and makes quick & nimble turns a breeze. Experienced riders obviously are familiar with the Feelgood, as it’s been pretty universally known as the go-to board for advanced female riders for as long as we can remember. Unlike a lot of women’s boards that are more flexible, the Feelgood has carbon highlights laid between the fiberglass to give it a ton of pop and less flex, which equals more power. Get on the gas and crush a groomer, then hit the woods and become as nimble as a hummingbird as you zig zag with confidence. Truly the perfect combination of power that hard-charging riders need, while still enough flex and playfulness to get you out of gnarly situations. Plus, the Burton Feelgood Flying V has got the stamp of approval from 3-time medalist Kelly Clark so you know it has got to be awesome.

FAQ

What’s the deal with the Flying V shape?

An absolute staple of the snowboard industry for years, Burton’s Flying V shape is their perfect all-mountain balance of rip and float. Rocker in the tip and tail, as well as directly in the center of the board provides a stable ride that feels awesome and will slash off trail, while camber zones directly underfoot provide the power and sharpness directly under your boots, where the power is generated. Rocker/Camber is all the rage these days because of its ability to shred everything, and the Flying V remains the ultimate construction in snowboard shapes for riders looking to hit everything. 

What are the reasons to go with the Feelgood Flying V over the Burton Yeasayer Flying V?

The primary reason would be because you want a stiffer board. The Feelgood is going to be stiffer and more aggressive, which is great for more experienced riders. It will carve sharper and hold up better at high speeds, while the Yeasayer will feel softer and more flexible. Also, the Feelgood is slightly setback while the Yeasayer is a true twin. The Yeasayer will be better for more easy-going riders, but if you want the best performance from your board, it’s gotta be the Feelgood.

TLDR: The rare women's snowboard that isn't built as a watered-down version of a men's deck. For advanced riders that are sick of softer-flexing boards that don't cut it, this thing is truly awesome.
