19/20 · 18/19 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The Moss Snowstick SW is a specialised board in the Japanese snowsurf style. Powder float and carving feel are distinctive and excellent, but it's a design that gives up versatility, so it's for advanced riders who enjoy directional riding.
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.
Hybrid camber
A hybrid construction combining nose rocker with traditional camber elements. A large nose and a pronounced swallowtail handle powder float.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
6 out of 10. The tail is very soft, the centre medium to medium-stiff and the nose about medium. It's smooth and poppy, so buttering is easy.
