Expert reviews 2
A board whose park-oriented playfulness has been greatly strengthened in its recent overhaul. The pop and buttering are impressive, but in exchange it gives up all-mountain versatility and powder capability. It's for park-focused riders.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A construction where camber underfoot transitions to flat toward the edges with a touch of early rise added. It has a technical character.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-soft flex at 4 out of 10. It bends readily overall and is especially soft just before the nose and tail.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Fundamentally for advanced to expert riders, though committed intermediates interested in park can manage it too.
Good
- ✓Surprisingly strong pop on ollies
- ✓Excellent buttering ability
- ✓Strong switch performance
- ✓Outstanding jibbing characteristics
Not so good
- —It deflects badly and gets sluggish on soft, irregular snow
- —Reduced edge grip compared with the previous model
- —Poor powder float
- —Limited high-speed stability
A full twin optimised for park tricks and freestyle riding, combining a camber-to-flat profile with Titanel Booster and Death Grip. Its medium-soft flex makes it easy for intermediates to handle, and it can also cope with side hits and all-mountain riding outside the park. It's the best fit for park and freestyle riders rather than powder or high-speed carving.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A Camber to Flat profile with strong camber through the middle and flat nose and tail tips. The centre camber provides powerful pop and drive, while the flat tip sections improve stability and catch-free feel when buttering and pressing rails.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-soft flex providing flexibility favourable to park tricks and rail and box presses. Titanal Booster and Death Grip supplement stiffness in icy conditions, so the perceived stiffness feels slightly higher than the spec.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A medium-soft flex and camber-to-flat construction make it easy for intermediates to handle, but its park-focused riding style and high-performance components such as Death Grip and Titanal Booster mean it's optimised for intermediate to advanced riders.
Good
- ✓The camber-to-flat construction provides strong pop and power while the flat sections at nose and tail improve the catch-free feel and smooth turn entry
- ✓The Titanel Booster raises spring, pop and stability along the board's length, and Death Grip's extra edge contact points provide definite grip even on icy snow
- ✓The full twin tip construction makes switch riding feel identical to regular, optimising it for park and freestyle
- ✓The Quantum Drive extruded base gives fast speed, high durability and easy maintenance
Not so good
- —The medium-soft flex may not provide enough support in high-speed, high-load environments such as powder and backcountry
- —The park-focused design makes hardpack and high-speed carving performance relatively limited compared with dedicated carving or all-mountain boards
