Default Burton custom X

Burton Custom X Snowboard - FREE SHIPPING at Altrec.com

Hey all, this is like the best snowboard in the world, also one of the most expensive though

In Norway it is like 1600$

But In the us it is around 650$
If I order it from The us I have to pay a fee at 25%, but that makes it 812$
Still, way cheaper then Norway, what I'm not so sure about is how much for the transportation to Norway. It can't be more then 80-100 $ ?
Still, way cheaper.
This is without bindings and shoes, but I have that.
Maybe there is a even cheaper site for that snowboard?

Thanks in advance



Th boards looks totally kick-ass, I can get it in Yellow,green,black,blue underside.
The yellow look coolest.

Well, that's because of how much things cost compared to how high the value of the $ is, and how much you earn in jobs.
Norway is one of the most expensive countries in the world, but I bet that board is expensive compared to the $ value?

Anyways, yeah things in US is very cheap, it's even cheaper with the 25% tax fee. Well do you guys know how much in shipping?

Lawl, read my post, how can I ride it when they don't send it outside US.

If I buy the board in Norway I can't afford it.

Maybe, it is a risk, but I do trust you. But I shouldn't do it anyway

Wellwell, for the bindings my sister will buy that in UK, and with no tax and shipping it will be the same as if I bought it from US, that's a good thing.
I don't think she has room for the shoes though.

Wellwell.

The board design is really good.
Though I personally prefer Nidecker.

Did you try the standard going trough places like ebay. They tend to offer completely new boards over there as well. Which tend to be exumpted from the no shipping policy. If Burton indeed does have one.

Well I found boards at Burton CUSTOM Snowboard 156 56 * FREE BAG * FREE DELIVERY * cheap

I will go for Custom instead of the X. Because the X is very stiff and is more for extreme driving. (more alpine) While the Normal Custom is softer and better do do tricks with.

It has a great design as well:





I got new bindings btw!!
