Expert reviews 1
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.
Base shape (camber)
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.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-stiff flex at 8 out of 10. The tail in particular is stiff, supporting heavier riders.
Where it shines
Who it suits
For intermediate to expert riders, but being full camber it fits riders used to quick-responding, technical boards.
Good

- ✓Strong carving performance that supports heavier riders well
Not so good
- —Minimal setback limits powder float
