26/27 season review
The redesign made it a little longer and narrower, and it no longer feels as aggressive. In exchange it is turnier and slashier, and genuinely fun to carve on groomers.
The lifted nose tech is a highlight. The one complaint is a single set-back insert on the back foot and none on the front.

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Directional camber
A set-back directional camber. The redesign made it a little longer and narrower, and less aggressive than before.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Medium, and easier to handle than the previous generation.

26/27 season review
An alternative freeride board redesigned longer and narrower for 26/27. Chatter absorption is outstanding yet the pop is still there, and it turns far better than its predecessor, making it fun on groomed slopes too.
Powder, carving and speed are all evenly good, while the single setback insert narrows powder setup options. It's for advanced riders who charge between powder and groomers.

Board profile

Directional camber
Fully redesigned for 26/27 into a directional freeride shape that is longer and narrower than its predecessor. That broadened its versatility across terrain and clearly improved how it turns and slashes on groomers.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium to upper-medium flex. It's a rare combination — a heavily damped board that still keeps its pop alive. Vibration absorption on chopped-up snow is excellent.

Advanced
An alternative freeride platform, it fits advanced to expert riders who push between powder and groomers. On the 158, boots size 9–10 are about right.
What the review liked
- ✓Outstanding chatter absorption keeps it stable on rough snow
- ✓It's rare to get this much pop alongside this much damping
- ✓It turns clearly better than its predecessor and slashes well
- ✓Powder, carving, speed and variable snow all rate an even 4/5
What the review found lacking
- —Only a rear setback insert with no front option, limiting stance width adjustment for powder
- —Switch and jibbing are unremarkable
- —Quite a change in character for riders who liked the previous version
