Burton Instigator Flat Top Snowboard 2025

Feel the thrill of igniting your snowboarding adventures with the Burton Instigator Flat Top Snowboard, your catalyst for freestyle fun. Perfect for sparking up your trick game, this board features a Flat Top profile designed for rapid progression and smooth, catch-free landings. With its soft flex, it offers a ride that's as easy-turning as it is exhilarating, so you can ignite your snowboarding career with confidence and never look back.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Flat Top™A flat profile between the feet means stability, better balance, and continuous edge control. The tip and tail kick up with an early rise outside the feet for the catch-free and loose feeling you'd expect from a rocker profile.

Flex

Personality0 - 3 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Twin FlexThe flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch.

Shape

DirectionalThe classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while still giving you plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.

Pro-TipA tapered tip and tail thickness reduces swing weight for easier mobility.

5mm Taper

Core

Dualzone™ EGD™The wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges on two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core for consistent edge-hold and added strength.

Squeezebox LowWith an overall easier feel, Squeezebox Low brings high-end core profiling technology to the progressing rider. Stiffer zones just outside your feet create a more direct energy transfer to the tip and tail, while enabling a softer, smoother flex between the bindings. The end result is more control with less effort from the rider.

Laminates

Biax™ FiberglassGives the board a jib and park friendly feel by softening the torsional flex.

Base

Extruded BaseSpeed, strength, and graphical pop in a base that requires little maintenance. Pass your friends without even waxing.

Edges

Cruise Control TuneA catch-free edge tune that combines with rocker with increased bevel to help new riders progress, and good riders get even better.

Additional Features

Super Sap® EpoxyA resin formulated with bio-based materials that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional all-petroleum-based epoxies. Less oil consumption means even less of a carbon footprint per board.

Infinite Ride™This Burton-exclusive technology allows maximized pop and strength by overbuilding the board, then putting it in a machine that breaks in the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Flat Top, Flying V™, or Camber, rest assured that with Infinite Ride™ your board will maintain its flex, pop, and feel from the first day forward, season after season.

Binding Compatibility

The Channel® Mounting SystemStronger, faster, easier, and more adjustable -- The Channel™ gives you ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings (not just Burton's).

Channel Inserts IncludedChannel Inserts are required to mount your bindings. Inspect packaging before disposing.

Binding

Burton Freestyle Snowboard Bindings 2025

The Burton Freestyle Snowboard Bindings have been the go to bindings for up and coming parkrats for over two decades. Their forgiving flex helps beginners and intermediates progress while providing a playful ride for jibbers and rail riders of all abilities, and single component high-back and Re:Flex™ baseplates combine with comfy straps for a snug and responsive fit to keep the good times rolling all season long.

Product Details

Flex

Medium FlexThe happy medium of binding flex. Medium flex models perform equally on all terrain. Great for progression - responsive, comfortable and forgiving.

Baseplate

Single-Component Lightweight, Bomb-Proof Polycarbonate Re:Flex™One material throughout the baseplate creates consistent response and feel for all-terrain domination.

Re:Flex™ Binding SystemOffers more flex, feel, and cushioning than traditional disc bindings, in a package that's universally compatible with all current mounting systems, including 4x4, 3D® (via Burton Rider Service, sold separately), and the Channel®. The minimized, cored base-plate with Living Hinge™ disc reduces the weight and footprint of the binding, while also bending freely for a more natural flex.

Re:Flex™ FullBED Cushioning SystemOffers full underfoot cushioning that maximizes comfort while minimizing fatigue. Anchored to the baseplate, the stealth trap door design makes it easy to access the mounting hardware.

Highback

Single Component ConstructionThe simplicity of a one-piece hi-back means immediate response. Using Burton's book of material secrets, they can manipulate the overall flex profile -- from buttery to responsive.

Canted Hi-Back DesignYour legs don't go straight up, and neither should your high backs. This ergonomic design follows the natural contours of your left and right legs to maximize control and comfort.

MicroFLAD™The higher the Forward Lean angle on your hi-backs, the quicker you heel-edge turns. Crank them forward for icy hits in the pipe or back them off for jibbing. Tool-free and micro-adjustable for easy fine-tuning and maximum angle options.

Straps

Reactstrap™Minimized construction that houses a 3D® curved triple axis spine with an ultra-responsive wrap that conforms to any boot.

Supergrip Capstrap™The Supergrip Capstrap™ delivers optimal fit and function with an ultra-minimalist, glueless, stitchless, and PU-free injection molded strap component that works both as a capstrap™ or over the toe. Simple and super durable.

Buckles

Smooth Glide™ BucklesLightweight aluminum and polycarbonate levers give you season after season of buttery smooth and reliable ratcheting power.

Additional Features
