Expert reviews 1
An all-mountain powder-oriented board with strong traditional camber, a directional design (long nose, 18 mm taper, 12 mm setback) and a wide waist, and its carving performance stands out in particular. A medium-stiff-plus flex with a carbon layup adds strong pop and stability, suiting advanced riders while ruling out freestyle tricks. Powder riding hasn't been tested yet, but the shape specs raise high expectations.
Base shape (camber)
Directional camber
A full tip-to-tail traditional camber profile with very strong camber. A directional camber construction combined with a directional design (long nose, short tail, 18mm taper, 12mm setback), maximising carving and powder performance.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Clearly stiffer than medium both lengthwise and torsionally. Strong traditional camber plus a carbon layup provides very powerful, energetic response. Rebound is strong enough that buttering takes considerable force and weight shift.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Strong traditional camber, a flex above medium-stiff and a wide waist mean controlling the board takes considerable skill. It demands an advanced level of riding sense, and even basic tricks such as buttering require plenty of force and focus.
Good
- ✓Strong traditional camber and the carbon layup provide outstanding edge power, precision and pop when carving
- ✓The wide 26.9 cm waist and directional shape (taper, setback) maximise powder and carving performance
- ✓Excellent stability lets you ride confidently at speed and in rough snow conditions
- ✓The short tail improves pivoting and manoeuvrability in technical sections
Not so good
- —Not suited to freestyle play such as buttering and ground tricks, which take a lot of effort
- —The wide 26.9 cm waist can change the carving feel considerably for riders below size 10.5
- —Very unsuited to park riding, with constraints from the directional shape
