        Comments about Burton Bullet Tool:

        My friends and I all have different kinds of snowboard tools. I happened to buy this one, and it turned out to be much nicer than the other ones I've seen.

        Some common problems other tools have:
        -Bad design/feels awkward in your hand
        -Bits get stuck in their storage holes and are difficult to get out
        -Bit storage is poorly designed so that the bits fall out all the time.
        -Not enough storage for all the bits, so you always have a bit sticking out/sharp point in your pocket, etc.

        This tool does not have any of those problems. There is a plastic "lid" that snaps into place over the bit storage compartment, keeping them safely in their place no matter what. Open it and your bits are right there, easy to get out even with gloves on in freezing temps. The handle part folds out for nice leverage without taking up extra space. The ratchet action is nice and smooth. This tool is head and shoulders above any of the ones that my friends have (which were all similarly priced). This is probably the only piece of snowboard equipment I have ever bought that I would recommend with absolutely no reservations. Every time my friends and I are hanging out doing tune-ups, I bust this out and my friends say something like "Man...I should get a tool like that. Mine sucks."

          Comments about Burton Bullet Tool:

          I've been using this tool for over 5 years and it still works great. I have tried using other tools, but keep coming back to this one.

          It doesn't try to do too much like a lot of other tools, yet it never leaves me wanting. It's simple, it's efficient, it's bombproof, the swing-out handle gives you a lot of good leverage, and I can't imagine using a tool without a ratchet anymore.

          It does everything I need it for (any binding adjustment you can imagine) and has held up remarkably over the years. It's also really easy to use with gloves on.

            Comments about Burton Bullet Tool:

            This was my first season carrying a tool with me on the mountain. I'd always just taken tuning stations for granted in the past. I must have had some kind of premonition cause I used this thing over a dozen times this year. Twice on myself when bindings loosened up mid run, the rest of the times were when others in my group needed it. If nothing else, be the one that carries the tool on the mountain for anyone else.

            One negative though, my heads took on some serious rust after a few uses. Be sure to take the bits out, dry 'em off, and store them somewhere that will keep the rust from developing.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            Comments about Burton Bullet Tool:

            This is a great snowboard tool that you can carry with you on rides to tweek/tighten your gear up. It includes a phillips and slotted screwdriver bits as well as a little wrench. The ratchet works as it should and is built well. The only drawback is that it is a little bulky..

            Comments about Burton Bullet Tool:

            The bullet tool is the most handy snowboard tool I've ever used. The head bits are easily accessible and the ratchet action makes adjusting your bindings so easy. Those stations with the screwdrivers hanging can be annoying and slow. With the bullet tool you can adjust on the lift or even mid-run if something is bothering you. It can be a little bulky but not noticeably so. I have cargo pants and they fit just fine in one of my side pockets.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

                This tool is great! I've had the same one since burton first came out with them, and it has never let me down! Anytime anyone in my group or myself need to tune something boom it's right there. Not bulky, or heavy at all. Throw it in your jacket, pant, or high back backpack. It's a great tool for last minute adjustments.
