Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Earth 2027 – All-Mountain Snowboard

The Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Earth 2027 is the rare daily driver that never asks you to compromise. Designed for intermediate to expert riders who log serious days in mixed terrain — tight trees, variable snow, the odd powder stash — it rides like a quiver of one, from groomers to untracked lines.

Built around a Freeride Directional shape with 12 mm of taper and Directional Camber, the board floats the nose when snow gets deep while keeping enough snap for technical riding. The flex pattern is twin, meaning it feels balanced underfoot for a playful, freestyle-leaning response, while the stiffened nose and tail — reinforced with 45° Carbon Highlights and strategic fiberglass layering — add the bump-busting authority you want when the snow gets chunky. The Super Fly II™ 700G Core with Dualzone™ EGD™ keeps the whole package lively, and the Sintered WFO base holds wax well for lasting speed. Binding setup runs through The Channel® system for maximum stance adjustability. Built with Super Sap® Epoxy and backed by a 3-year warranty.

This board is a natural fit for riders who split their time between resort runs and sidecountry laps without wanting to carry two boards. The twin flex and centered stance make park laps and playful carving feel natural, while the directional shape and taper earn their keep the moment snow depth increases. If you ride Vermont-style — narrow glades, variable conditions, occasional deep days — the Hometown Hero was quite literally built for that.

• What makes this different from a standard all-mountain board? The Family Tree lineage means premium materials and a freeride-first construction — the carbon highlights and Dualzone EGD core add stiffness and response in the nose and tail that most all-mountain boards skip.
• Is The Channel® compatible with my current bindings? The Channel® is Burton's proprietary mounting system. It is compatible with Burton bindings and most EST-compatible bindings; compatibility with other brands should be confirmed before purchase.
