Summary

The Burton Custom Camber is not the one-board quiver it used to be for most riders. It's missing the float and edge hold that many All-Mountain peers have, but it's still a very fun, springy, true camber ride.

Update 2025: Almost nothing changed with the Custom or Custom X, so these 2023 and 2024 wide reviews are still relevant.
