PTO Verdict

“Burton's build list matches its 24/25 page; the 26/27 copy adds a promise of forgiveness.”

Best for: Riders who already link clean turns and want a camber twin mostly for jumps, side hits and pipe: two independent reviews of this build rate its pop and jumping highly, and Burton's Park slider runs 0–100%. On the 145 and 148 it fits riders Burton charts at 100-150 lb. It also fits riders who want a sintered base without spending more than $449.95.

Not for: The Good Company is the wrong board if this is your first season: Burton lists it as Intermediate, and both detailed reviews rule out beginners, one saying intermediates will most likely take some lumps on its camber. Powder riders should look elsewhere, since Burton's slider stops at 30% and neither review rates its float well. Riders over 150 lb are outside Burton's band for both lengths here. And riders who want a softer, more forgiving twin should look at the Cultivator, which Burton rates Soft & Playful on a Flat Top bend.

Description

The Burton Good Company Camber is a true-twin park snowboard on straight camber, and at $449.95 it is the least expensive board with a sintered base among the 14 Burton snowboards in our 26/27 buy. Burton's newest copy leans on forgiveness, though the construction it lists matches its 24/25 page.

Burton pitches the Camber bend for powerful turns and precise pop, with edge control it calls continuous from tip to tail. Inside, the Super Fly 800G core alternates hard and soft woods to save weight, and Dualzone EGD sets the wood grain along both edges for grip. Triax glass, a sintered base and The Channel mount complete it. Outline and flex are symmetrical, with a 0 mm stance location, so switch mirrors regular. The Alien graphic comes from team riders Maria Thompsen, Grace Warner and Ylfa Runarsdottir.

Buy it for kickers, side hits and the halfpipe; Burton sets its Park slider at 0–100%. It is the wrong board for a first-timer: Burton rates it Intermediate, and independent reviews split on how forgiving its camber is. Soft snow is the weak spot, 0–30% on Burton's Powder slider.

Among nearby Burton boards, the $559.95 Blossom brings carbon and Burton's wax-infused Sintered WFO base, and Burton rates it Stiff & Aggressive. The $549.95 Process carries the same personality rating but tilts toward the whole mountain, with All Mountain 0–100% and Powder 0–60% against this board's 0–70% and 0–30%. The Cultivator at $399.95 is Burton's catch-free Flat Top, pitched at progression.

This listing covers the 145 and the 148, with 245 and 248 mm waists. Burton charts both for riders from 100 to 150 lb and for a Men's M or Women's L binding size. The board ships without bindings. We check your boots against the board in the shop. If you buy the board from us, we mount the bindings and set your stance.

The take

“Burton's build list matches its 24/25 page; the 26/27 copy adds a promise of forgiveness.”

The Burton Good Company is a carryover board in new clothes, and the archive shows it. Burton's 24/25 page lists the same bend, core, fiberglass and base, and the same numbers at the 145 and 148: 1085 and 1115 mm of effective edge, 7.1 and 7.3 m sidecut radii. The words moved instead. In 24/25 Burton called it a traditional camber twin and listed the riding level as Expert; for 26/27 it promises a softer, more forgiving flex and lists Intermediate, without saying what the flex is softer than, and its personality bar sits in the same spot on both pages. One 2027 preview implies the board carries Burton's Squeezebox Low, but neither Burton page lists it, so it is not counted here.

The Good Company's camber is where independent reviews part ways, and the riders behind them matter. A review of the 2025 model on a 155, with riders listed at 185-190 lb and 240 lb, called it old school and full of unforgiving camber, and said intermediates will most likely take some big lumps because it catches an edge more easily than many hybrid profiles. A detailed review of the 2024 model on a 155 at 180 lb found it quite uncatchy for a traditional camber board and fine from low intermediate up. They split on butters too: one says it is not the easiest to butter, the other calls it pretty easy. Both boards were longer, and the riders heavier, than the 145 and 148 here, which Burton charts for 100-150 lb.

The Good Company earns its keep in the air, by both reviews' accounts: one lists it as an excellent jump board and outstanding in pipe, the other calls it so much fun on jumps, with pop that is easy to reach. Grip is the second strength, with one reviewer reporting strong hold on hard snow and crediting a sidecut shape Burton does not describe. Rails draw mixed notes: one review found it surprisingly good on them, the other says better jib boards exist. Soft snow scores low in both. Speed splits them again: one found it wobbly at moderately fast speeds and chattery in crud, while the other says it goes pretty straight and fast for a twin.

Next to its neighbors, the Good Company's case is price and purpose. At the same $449.95, the Spellbinder is directional, set back 25 mm and rated Soft & Playful on an extruded base, an all-mountain board by Burton's sliders (All Mountain 0–90%, Park 0–40%) rather than a park twin. Against the Blossom, a single-reviewer 2025 comparison rates the Blossom slightly stiffer with a faster base and otherwise similar in feel, and Burton's pages show both boards' construction carried over from that model year. The Good Company's page leaves out weight, a flex number and a boot-size range.

Bindings we'd pair with it

Mount point: The Channel, centered: Burton's reference stance width is 505mm on the 145 and 530mm on the 148. Our pick: Burton Freestyle Re:Flex.

Burton says The Channel is compatible with all major bindings, not just Burton. Both linked bindings are the 25/26 models; their personality bars come from Burton's 26/27 pages. Burton's chart also allows a Women's L binding on both lengths, and we can match one in the shop.

Common Questions

Did the Burton Good Company change for 26/27?
Not in its published construction. Burton's 26/27 page and its archived 24/25 page share the bend, core, glass and base, and the 145 and 148 keep their effective edge and sidecut figures. The copy and riding level did change: Burton called it a traditional camber twin rated Expert in 24/25 and now pitches it as forgiving, rated Intermediate.
Is the Burton Good Company good for beginners?
Burton lists its riding level as Intermediate, and both detailed independent reviews say it is not a beginner board because of its camber. They disagree on how catchy it is, so a rider still learning to link turns is better served by the Cultivator.
What size Burton Good Company should I get?
This listing has the 145 and 148, both charted by Burton for 100-150 lb riders and Men's M / Women's L bindings; the 148 measures 248 mm at the waist against 245 mm, with 1115 mm of effective edge against 1085 mm. One independent review's boot guide suggests US 6.5-7.5 on the 145 and US 7-8 on the 148, and we check your actual boots in the shop.
Does the Burton Good Company come with bindings?
No, it is sold as a board only. It uses The Channel, which Burton says is compatible with all major bindings. For a board bought from us, we mount your bindings and set the stance.
Is the Burton Good Company a men's or women's board?
Burton's product title names no gender, and its chart pairs the 145 and 148 with Men's M / Women's L bindings. For a women's-specific camber twin, Burton's Talent Scout is the stiffer choice, with its personality bar drawn further toward stiff.
