Expert reviews 1
The Ogasaka TF (The Free) is an all-round board giving Free Camber the softest flex in the Ogasaka line. Low-speed handling and presses/butters are its strengths, and low resistance in bumps, wet snow and powder makes it good for riding everything. In exchange, it's a character that gives up high-speed stability and aggressive carving — the one model in Ogasaka's line with a high share of play.
Base shape (camber)
Camber
A construction Ogasaka calls Free Camber: the nose and tail compress mildly, making the board easy to push around. A trapezoidal shape is adopted to reduce swing weight.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
The softest in Ogasaka's line. The board is easy to control at low speed and presses and butters go in well. Even its catalogue metrics read TURN 4 : PLAYFUL 6 — uniquely weighted toward play within Ogasaka.
