25/26 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
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.
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.
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.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
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.
Terrain suggested in the review
Rider levels suggested in the review
Advanced
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.
What the review liked
- ✓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
What the review found lacking
- —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
