Our time-tested quiver-of-one with Family Tree quality for your daily driver needs.
The Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero is a daily driver with a build and materials worthy of the Family Tree name. The directional shape has enough taper to float the nose on deeper days, while the board's directional camber and flex maintain the pop to keep it lively in all conditions and terrain.

Crud-Busting Power: Strategically placed glass stiffens up the nose and tail for bump-busting power and response.

Freeride Focus: Family Tree boards are designed to feed the freeride mindset, and the Hometown Hero gives you full power to get after it in all conditions.

On the topsheet, Burton’s Dom Berrini captures sound wave patterns with cymatics and Chladni plates, transforming vibrations into visuals that reveal every board’s distinct personality.
