Expert reviews 1
The Yes Cream Halldor Edition is a snappy jib board combining ample traditional camber with Y3D technology, standing out for powerful pop and a smooth press feel. It's optimised for park- and freestyle-oriented advanced riders, but edge-hold limits make it unsuitable for all-mountain or aggressive carving. It's strongly recommended to riders who make jibbing and buttering their main disciplines while wanting ollie pop.
Base shape (camber)
Camber
A traditional camber construction with Y3D technology bevelling the contact points. It holds the most camber of any Yes board, providing powerful rebound and pop under load. Y3D reduces edge bite somewhat and softens turn initiation.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Stiffer than a full jib noodle but softer than a mid park flex. There's plenty of play at the tip and tail with a slightly stiffer centre at the insert pack. Torsional flex twists readily too, giving it an overall snappy jib board character.
Where it shines
Who it suits
You need to know how to load traditional camber properly, and the board responds sensitively at speed and on rough snow, which can make it hard for beginners and intermediates. It suits advanced park riders with press and jib technique.
Good
- ✓Powerful pop and rebound from ample camber give it outstanding boosting performance
- ✓Y3D-bevelled spooned tips/tail make presses and jibbing easy and lock in stably on features
- ✓Heel-to-toe transitions are smooth and fluid, providing comfortable handling in short, fast carves
- ✓A jib board with live snap, favourable across varied trick situations including ollies, side hits and rollers
Not so good
- —It reacts sensitively at speed and on rough snow, lowering stability and making a knees-bent stance essential
- —Reduced contact-point edge bite from Y3D leaves edge hold lacking in deep, aggressive carves and on large jumps
- —If you can't handle traditional camber properly, it's hard to bring out the board's strengths, so it isn't recommended to beginners and intermediates
