For those who play like the pros, the fast and superlight Burton Fortress snowboard is a confident choice in terrain that's big and icy, sketchy and steep, or just plain cracked.

Podium powerhouse Kelly Clark harnesses every ounce of this board's explosive pop and silky smooth handling
Pillowy damping reduces fatigue for more endurance while all-wheel drive edge tech and mind-reading responsiveness team up to bring out the best in anyone who steps on it
Burton designs womens boards to match the geometry and fitness of the female rider; torsional softness underfoot transitions to stabilizing zones between and outside the feet
Snappy positive camber distributes weight evenly over the entire length of the board for smooth continuous edge control from tip to tail, poppy precision and powerful turning
Directional shape concentrates pop in the tail and offers plenty of overall float and control; twin flex makes riding regular or switch simple
The Channel M6 system offers unlimited, on-the-fly stance adjustability, enhances board feel and is compatible with EST™, Re:Flex™ and Disc® bindings
The Channel lets you fine-tune your stance width to the millimeter, and then dial in your toe-to-heel centering and rotate your angles in 1 fell swoop
500 independent laminations, each individually oriented within the core, result in superior weight savings, strength and energized response
Multi-zone wood grains run perpendicular to the core adjacent to the Channel (where the rider's power emanates) for ultimate strength and edge control
Small amounts of carbon in the minimized topsheet shave precious ounces off the board and magnify feel and response; fiberglass strengthens high-impact zones
Hi-Voltage fiberglass energy strands radiate outward from the Channels to the board's edges, providing driving power and effortless response
Lightweight Carbon I-Beam™ riding up the board's spine adds to board's longitudinal snap
Smooth Ride™ internal shock absorbers minimize fatigue for more control in sketchy conditions and let you set it down without exploding
Streamlined sidewalls shave weight without sacrificing edge-hold, strength or rideability
Edges extend out slightly beneath the bindings for tremendous edge hold in hard, icy conditions, but they remain playful and forgiving in softer conditions
Tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight and improves powder flotation
Highly-porous sintered base is ultra durable and has specially formulated wax infused deep into the pores for long-lasting glide
Fortress graphics: drawings, textures, smiley faces, brush strokes, and even moon rocks!

Please note: 2012 Channel M6 boards are compatible with pre-2012 EST™, Re:Flex™ and traditional disc bindings with the included M6 Transition Kit
