22/23 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A soft true twin with 3BT, a park board specialised for jibbing and pressing. Jibbing (5/5) and turning (5/5) make it ideal for creative park riding, and the lack of catch makes it easy for beginners to handle.
Speed, carving and powder are all given up, though, so it isn't suited to big jumps or aggressive 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.
Camber
A true twin with 3BT laid onto traditional camber. The lifted contact points mean no edge catch when jibbing, and it uses a sintered base.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
An officially soft flex of 2 out of 10 (about 3 as felt on snow). Presses and butters are very easy and low-speed handling is excellent. In exchange, it folds on big jumps and at speed.

Rider levels suggested in the review
New · Intermediate · Advanced
Easy to turn and catch-free so beginners can handle it, and it also fits advanced park riders using presses and jibs creatively. It isn't a board for aggressive riding, though.
What the review liked
- ✓Top-tier jibbing (5/5) — a highly polished press-focused park board
- ✓Turning rates 5/5 and spins, switch and butters all rate 4.5/5
- ✓3BT keeps the edges from catching on rails
- ✓3rd of 28 freestyle boards (89.7/100)
What the review found lacking
- —Speed and carving are weak at 2/5
- —Not suited to powder (2.5/5)
- —On big jumps the flex folds and can't really be said to hold up
