The offspring of a one-night stand between two of Burton’s most revered all-terrain boards, the men’s Burton Skeleton Key Snowboard has quickly become a staple in the quivers of our testers and team riders. From Japan-deep pow to Mount Baker’s legendary banks, this uniquely hard-charging directional shape fuses camber with a slightly increased waist width that carves like a knife.

Odyssey’s opinion: Another of our favourites in the Burton range, the Skeleton Key is a super fun directional board, amazing in powder, but equally at home carving up the piste.
