The Forum Recon returns year after year because it is an excellent all-around, all-mountain board with plenty of size options that is priced right and versatile enough to please riders of all abilities. This board is a soft, easy to turn board and comes with some wicked graphics--a 3-D "Mystery Park" pattern. This board has a higher-end feel than the price tag may dictate.

The Burton X8 is a high-performance twin-tipped freestyle board with great flex. The X8 features Burton's new Infinite Channel System that allows for much more stance adjustability than ever before. Graphics are pretty cool with a silver flake and black and yellow swirl.
