25/26 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
Jared Ellner's pro signature model, a high-performance directional tapered board designed for the Natural Selection Tour. Parabolic camber combined with carbon stringers delivers strong edge hold and high-speed stability, while the relative softness of the nose and tail keeps buttering and jumps playful.
It comes strongly recommended when intermediate and advanced riders want top performance in powder, carving and all-mountain terrain.
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.
Directional camber
A Parabolic Camber construction — a directional camber that provides strong camber character while giving the nose and tail appropriate flexibility. Combined with a tapered directional construction, it supports powerful edge hold and powder performance at once.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A very hard, stiff board rated 8–9 out of 10 (9–10 by some measures). Only the nose and tail are comparatively soft, allowing buttering and rail play, but the build overall favours strong power and stability. Carbon stringers run nose to tail, maximising responsiveness and stiffness.
