Expert reviews 1
A big-mountain/freeride-style all-mountain board designed by Sage Kotsenburg, combining float, pop and aggressive carving responsiveness through a rocker-camber-rocker profile and carbon Y-beams. Playful riding such as buttering is possible despite the stiff flex, and it's particularly recommended to advanced riders who enjoy backcountry and carving. It isn't a dedicated park board, but its versatility across varied terrain is a strength.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid rocker
A rocker-camber-rocker profile that provides float and pop at once. 3D contouring lifts the contact points slightly, adding extra float and playfulness.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Stiff overall, with a carbon Y-beam raising torsional stiffness for strong response in high-speed carving. That said, playful flex such as buttering is permitted to a degree.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A stiff flex, aggressive torsion and responsiveness tuned for speed and deep carving suit confident, experienced riders. Beginners and intermediates may find it hard to handle.
