Expert reviews 1
A powder and carving-specialised deck with a surfboard feel at 176 cm, combining high-speed stability, overwhelming edge grip and top-tier finish quality. It's usable enough on park jumps too, and the fishtail shape maximises powder float and carving performance at once. Nose chatter and limited distribution are counted against it, but it's a board strongly worth recommending to intermediate and above all-mountain and carving-oriented riders.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A fishtail directional board with a hybrid camber construction blending a rocker element — the nose rising to raise float on powder — with a camber element that provides edge grip when carving. It has an asymmetric flex construction: a comparatively soft nose and a stiffer tail.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Rated 13 on the maker's 20-point scale, but the perceived stiffness is greater than the figure. Stiffness rises progressively — nose 13/20, midsection 14–15/20, tail 15/20 — with longitudinal stiffness similar to the K2 Alchemist while torsional stiffness is comparatively supple.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Its large 176cm size and directional fish shape make it unsuitable for beginners, suiting intermediates and up who want to improve at carving and jumping. It's optimised for intermediate to advanced riders with park experience who are moving toward carving and backcountry.
Good
- ✓Excellent high-speed stability — the recessed topsheet construction minimises chatter
- ✓Overwhelming carving performance — deep carves and high board angles come easily
- ✓Powder performance — the fishtail disperses snow and the wide nose provides excellent float
- ✓Excellent finish quality — smooth sidewalls and a sharp edge tune
- ✓All-mountain usefulness — broadly usable across varied terrain including park jumps, carving and powder
Not so good
- —Nose chatter at speed — the bamboo stringers leave the nose relatively soft, producing vibration at high speed
- —Low profile and accessibility — limited distribution in some regions means few chances to buy or demo
- —Its large size and directional shape make it unsuitable for park and rail trick-focused riders
