The custom feels awesome, but I have to say that it doesn't last too long.
My friend had one and after about a season and a half, the board became
too noodly. He had a 158 i think of the 02-03 season. Plus Burton only
gives out 1 year warranty..... there are plenty of other brands out there
that can exceed it in that department.

I has similar issues w/ a 99/2000 Custom 160 losing stiffness and pop
quickly. I was in the upper end of the weight range. I have always
suspected they simply published too wide a weight range and I was just
fatiguing the board with my weight...
