Burton vs Rome vs Forum? Help... - Snowboarding Forum

11-13-2009, 02:30 PM

Which of the following boards would you guys recommend I go with...

1) 2010 Rome Crail
2) 2009 Forum Symbol
3) 2006 Burton Custom

I'm an intermediate level rider looking for a good all mountain board. I spend a little more time out of the park than in it. I'm 6' tall, 170lbs, and have a size 10 boot. All boards are going to run me about the same price.

Thanks for the input!!!

while i dont know the symbol, the crail is softer than the custom and the crail has a setback, unlike the custom which is true twin. the custom also holds more weight.

crail is my board too. i highly recommend it.

The custom is new, not used... but the fact that its an 2006 is why I'm hesitant.

Wow, so far a ton of love for the Crail!

I was under the impression it was more of a freestyle board than all-mountain. My biggest concern is how it holds up at high speeds, and how well it carves?

unless your going for the anti-corporate thing
