As a part of Burton's Retro Collection, the 1987 Elite offers that nostalgia that everybody loves in a modern build that makes it much more than just a wall hanger. With its short wide frame and Super Fly® core, this blast from the past is perfect for early morning speed runs, springtime park sessions, tight tree lines and snorkel-deep pow days so get ready for miles of smiles and decades of fun with this throwback from Burton.
Directional Flat Top™ Rocker Profile - A flat profile overall with a rocker nose for steady stability and effortless float on deep powder days and surf-like terrain.
The Channel® - The Channel is an exclusive Burton mounting system using a central spine that allows you to micro-adjust stance width, angle, and toe-to-heel centering with ease while at the same time dispersing energy for added rebound and snap.
(Only Channel-compatible bindings work with this board)
Super Fly® 800g Core - Lightened up and loaded with pop, this vertical sandwich of hard and soft woods saves weight and improves snap and response. Further optimized for float in their freeride focused boards, and strength in Burton's park-focused boards.
Dualzone™ EGD™ (Engineered Grain Direction) - 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.
Infinite™ Ride Construction - A Burton exclusive technology allows their boards to maximize pop and strength by overbuilding the board for you. Whether you choose to ride Spring-loaded, Rocker, 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.
Triax Fiberglass - Versatile flex and response for everything from mini to mega shred
Sintered WFO Base - Infusing a specially formulated wax deep into the pores of this extra-absorbent, high-density sintered material results in an ultra-durable base that stays "Wide F!#@ing Open" all season in any condition.
Super Sap® Epoxy - Resin formulated with bio-based materials, reducing the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional petroleum-based epoxies. Less oil consumption means even less of a carbon footprint per board.
