Expert reviews 2
A well-executed all-mountain board for its price bracket. Forgiving yet stable with particularly good hardpack edge hold, it handles varied snow. It's a versatile option that works at any skill level.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A hybrid construction where ample camber between the feet runs out past the inserts, with a very mellow passive bend at the centre and early rise at the nose and tail.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex at 6 out of 10, leaning medium-stiff. Stability and forgiveness are well balanced.
Where it shines
Who it suits
It covers beginners through experts. An accessible design that stays forgiving without losing responsiveness.
Good
- ✓Excellent balance of stability and forgiveness
- ✓Strong edge hold on hardpack and ice
- ✓Good pop for ollies and carving
- ✓Mervin manufacturing gives it good durability
- ✓Respectable switch capability and high all-mountain versatility
Not so good
- —The base doesn't hold wax well
- —Wide stance ranges per size limit position options
- —Base glide isn't outstanding for the price bracket
A freestyle-oriented all-mountain board that combines pop, responsiveness and forgiveness through early-rise camber and a medium flex. Magnetraction delivers stable edge hold even on icy snow, and its playful character, enjoyable for intermediates through advanced riders, is its strength. It's an all-round freestyle board that satisfies in both park and resort settings.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
An Early Rise Camber profile: camber starts just ahead of the feet with a touch of rocker at the nose and tail — a hybrid construction. It provides pop and responsiveness while allowing forgiving landings.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex, balancing the flexibility needed for creativity and playfulness with the stiffness needed for pop and responsiveness.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Rideable from just above beginner level, with the versatility for advanced riders to extract its full performance too. It suits both intermediates' progression and advanced riders' freestyle performance.
Good
- ✓Early-rise camber delivers excellent pop and responsiveness while staying forgiving on landings
- ✓Magnetraction (serrated edges) provides strong edge hold even on icy snow
- ✓The directional twin shape is freestyle-oriented while remaining usable for all-mountain riding
- ✓Easy and playful to ride overall, suiting riders across a range of levels
Not so good
- —Extreme carving performance may be limited compared with traditional full camber
- —Powder and backcountry performance is unverified, leaving its usefulness on that terrain unclear
