When shopping for skis & snowboards, the key choice here is not simply which board costs less. Do you want a twin freestyle snowboard with a named camber profile, or a board-and-bindings package aimed at powder, trees, and park laps? The Burton Process and System MTN take distinctly different approaches, so the right pick depends on your riding priorities and whether you need bindings included.
Quick verdict
Choose the Men's Burton Process Snowboard if twin freestyle playfulness and Burton's PurePop camber are the deciding details. Choose the System MTN Snowboard with Summit Bindings Men's Snowboard Package if you want a broader all-mountain brief and a named snowboard-and-bindings combination. The listed-price spread is $85.02, but the more important difference is the type of setup each one represents.

Where each snowboard wins
Burton Process: twin freestyle focus
The Burton Process is the more direct match for riders who want a twin shape and freestyle character. Its description pairs twin freestyle playfulness with all-terrain prowess, then adds PurePop camber as the named profile. That combination makes it the natural choice when board feel and freestyle direction matter more than receiving a bundled setup.
System MTN: package convenience and terrain range
The System MTN wins on the breadth of its stated use: powder, tree riding, and park laps are all part of its description. The package also names Summit bindings alongside the snowboard. Its CRCX profile is described as rocker dominant, with small cambered sections in the nose and tail, giving shoppers a clearly different design direction to compare with Burton's camber-focused board.
Product notes
Men's Burton Process Snowboard
The Burton Process makes sense for a shopper seeking the snowboard itself rather than a package with bindings. Its twin shape, freestyle playfulness, and PurePop camber create a clear fit for a freestyle-oriented decision, while the description also places it in an all-terrain role. That gives the board a defined identity without requiring a bundled hardware purchase. The limitation is the listed price: at $384.97, it is the higher-priced choice in this matchup. Its title also identifies a snowboard rather than a package that includes bindings, so it is a less direct fit for someone assembling a board-and-bindings setup in one purchase. For riders prioritizing Burton's stated freestyle direction, those trade-offs are straightforward.
System MTN Snowboard with Summit Bindings Men's Snowboard Package
The System MTN package is the practical choice when the purchase needs to cover both a snowboard and Summit bindings. Its description gives it a broad assignment across powder, trees, and park laps, making that terrain range a concrete reason to choose it. At $299.95, it also carries the lower listed price in this comparison. The limitation is its different profile and emphasis: CRCX is rocker dominant with small cambered sections in the nose and tail, so it does not match the Burton Process's named PurePop camber and twin freestyle combination. Choose System when the package format and mixed-terrain brief matter more than matching Burton's particular board character.
