25/26 · 24/25 · 23/24 · 22/23 · 21/22 season review
It has only average float in powder, but it is a jumping machine with amazing pop on ollies and carves. An excellent option for a two-board quiver: get this for your groomer days and something else for powder.

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
A twinish shape with pretty much full camber throughout the contact points and spoon in the nose after. You barely feel the spoon tech when turning, so that edgeless washy feel in hard snow is almost unnoticeable.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Medium and not too easy to butter, but with a dynamic, snappy flex and really lively pop, even in a wide.

Advanced
Advanced and up — not super catchy, but not for intermediates who skid their turns a lot.
What the review liked
- ✓A jumping machine with amazing pop on ollies and carves
- ✓Excellent base glide, so it points it really well
- ✓Handles a much wider variety of terrain without getting cranky
- ✓More forgiving than camber yet much more locked in than the brand's other hybrid camber boards
What the review found lacking
- —Only average float in powder
- —Not too easy to butter
- —Not as easy an all-day ride as some of the brand's other boards
25/26 season review
A board that pairs a full camber directional twin construction with Traction Tech for outstanding grip and stability even on ice and steeps. Its strong sidecut makes sharp turns and speed control easy, and it handles well in moguls too.
It's a performance-oriented board to actively recommend to intermediate and above all-mountain and carving riders.

Directional camber
A directional twin shape based on full camber. Traction tech applied underfoot and through the middle of the board provides excellent grip even in icy conditions.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Stiff overall, with the section between the feet feeling comparatively a touch softer. It provides stability on steep slopes and playfulness at once.

Intermediate · Advanced
A full camber construction, strong sidecut and high stiffness suit intermediates and up rather than beginners. Recommended for riders who need steep-slope control and sharp turning ability.
What the review liked
- ✓Outstanding grip on ice and steeps thanks to Traction Tech
- ✓The strong sidecut allows sharp, easily controlled turns
- ✓A directional twin construction with stability and playfulness at once
- ✓A light board and binding setup
What the review found lacking
- —The slippery topsheet makes adding a stomp pad advisable
- —The sidecut is stronger than expected, which can be a lot for unfamiliar riders
