The Burton Driver X has made a reputation as one of the better aggressive stiff flexing boots out there. The Driver X has been around for a long time and has the reputation of Burton’s most responsive aggressive all mountain to freeride boot.
The Burton Driver X is a boot that I have a lot of experience with. I have used this many days and rode this with many aggressive all mountain to Freeride boards. As you probably know this is one of Burton’s stiffest boots and it is here to create a lot of quick edge to edge response so the board under foot doesn’t feel as difficult to turn. Paired with a good aggressive binding like the Burton Diode you have a really responsive set up. The Burton Driver X isn’t for everyone though and is more for Expert riders than advanced riders. Often times Boots like the Imperial or Ion will have enough response to turn your board while at the same time be more forgiving.
