The Burton Cartographer Snowboard is an excellent snowboard for free riders, featuring a Dualzone EGD that provides excellent hold and response while remaining strong. It’s a great daily driver and good if you enjoy getting some air, with the 5mm taper making it great for turning. As for weight, it’s a medium board, and for price and features, it’s a pretty nice deal, all things considered.

A directional snowboard for freeriding, the fish shape is an interesting throwback and great for those who might want to experience how rides were in the past. With a polyurethane strip around the board to provide some dampening, the reverse side-cut profiles help with maneuverability at low speeds and all-mountain runs. It excels at powder too, so if you love plowing through snow, this will serve you pretty well.

Rossignol XV Sushi Snowboard — $400, was $500

Xavier De Le Rue is an impressive and pretty well-known snowboarder, and this board is made to his specifications, being an intersection between Japanese surf and overall snow culture, which is pretty cool. The Sushi XV works well in powder, sinking in just enough to give you both power and control while still providing a smooth ride. If you’re looking for a top-end snowboard for aggressive style with a bit of playful flair, this pro board is the one.

No matter, because we now know the Alaska Triangle exists and the mystery behind it is way, way more interesting. So much so that the Travel Channel even made a TV series out of it, where "[e]xperts and eyewitnesses attempt to unlock the mystery of the Alaska Triangle, a remote area infamous for alien abductions, Bigfoot sightings, paranormal phenomena, and vanishing airplanes."
