Expert reviews 1
A directional board aimed at powder and carving together. Its round board shape delivers the pleasure of carving, and it glides well enough to build speed even on mellow pitches. Its 'manual operation' philosophy means the rider has to control it actively with torque and weighting.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid rocker
A powder rocker construction combined with a long nose and a large sidecut radius (about 9m on the 161). Taper amount and flex balance are set differently per size, realising the fun of carving in a round board shape.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex at 6 out of 10, striking a balance between responsiveness and forgiveness.
Where it shines
Who it suits
It covers a broad range of ability, but designer Kazunori Hirama's 'manual operation' philosophy is central: it only performs when the rider actively controls the board through torque and loading.
Good
- ✓Powder-focused while still performing excellently in carving situations
- ✓Good edge grip response on hardpack
- ✓Stable float in deep snow despite the directional shape
- ✓Excellent base glide builds speed even on mellow pitches
- ✓A wide choice of sizes including wides (155W and so on)
Not so good
- —The board doesn't respond automatically — it demands active input
- —Not a fit for riders who want an easy ride
- —Not intended for park or jibbing
