25/26 · 24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
An all-mountain board specialised for hardpack performance for heavier advanced riders. Edge hold, pop and stability on rough snow are excellent, but powder is weak, so pairing it with a separate powder board is a good idea.
A closer look
These descriptions and scores are linked to this review. They may differ from manufacturer specifications.
Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Camber
True full camber from nose to tail with no early rise. It's an aggressive profile that rewards advanced riders with precision but catches an edge for intermediates. A mid-wide to wide shape supports heavier riders.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium-stiff flex at 8 out of 10. The tail in particular is stiff, supporting heavier riders.
