Burton Yeasayer Flying V

Hey, what's up? This is Josh from Burton Snowboards. We're at Peter Glenn today going over the Winter 21-22 Yaysayer Flying V Women's Board. The Yaysa...

This is the 2021 Burton Yaysayer snowboard, talking about it for Peter Glenn Ski and Sports. The Yaysayer is our go-to intermediate all-mountain board...

Not shy at all. You want to tell us about this board? So this is one of my favorite boards in the line because it's so versatile.

I have a Burton flying V. It's super fun and buttery, almost feels like a spring-hinge in the middle. It doesn't have any special edge tech like the LibTech magnatraction or anything tho, which actually makes it more fun for me in the right conditions. But it also has like 0 edge control on firm/icy stuff, so I only ride it on soft days. So if you went for something like that, you'd want to keep your traditional camber in the quiver for days that require good edge hold.

(really stiff tail and a softer nose) I ride mine setback about 3/4 of an inch at +/- 15 degrees. I literally ride this board in the deepest powder, tight trees, shred groomers, hit rails and booters. There's nothing that this board doesn't shred well. Since I've owned this board I've bought/ridden multiple lib techs, neversummer proto type two, a flat camber yes board, Burton flying v, and two gnu.

I'm an intermediate snowboarder looking for a new snowboard, I had the Burton Flying V for the past couple of years but I've outgrown it and am looking for something better. I kind of do everything on the mountain, trees, park, and just regular runs. I'm from western Canada so there's much more powder and softer snow so I want something for that too, but it doesn't have to be the main focus.

We typically ride front side, blue/black, bumps and steeps. She does not do park much. She used the Neversummer West 159 last year and said it was “fine.” She has used the Burton Flying V and the Neversummer proto 2 in seasons past with no strong feelings about either.
