This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
Its shape, sidecut and overall ride are our favourites in the brand's line — with one big but: dampness. It just does not have the chatter absorption for all-day or even mid-day riding, so it is best for really light riders who want a lively, poppy board.

Hybrid camber
A tapered directional shape — our favourite shape and sidecut combination in the brand's line.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Medium-stiff, lively and poppy.

24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A full camber directional board that provides excellent carving responsiveness and strong edge hold on icy snow through a tapered sidecut. Its medium-stiff flex gives it high high-speed stability and it handles both groomers and powder respectably, though the stiffness can feel demanding on bumpy, variable snow.
It's a board suited to intermediate and above riders with an all-mountain carving bent.

Directional camber
A directional board based on full camber with a slightly tapered shape. It has traditional camber characteristics — stable edge hold and strong turn response.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A flex in the medium-stiff bracket, on the stiff side within the medium category. It isn't excessively rigid, but has enough stiffness for stable high-speed riding.

Intermediate · Advanced
A medium-stiff flex and directional camber construction suit intermediate and above riders with some skill rather than beginners, and its strong edge hold and responsiveness are attractive to advanced riders too.
What the review liked
- ✓The tapered sidecut gives it excellent turn responsiveness and edge grip
- ✓It maintains strong edge hold even on icy snow with excellent high-speed stability
- ✓Stable riding across varied snow including powder and groomers
What the review found lacking
- —The stiff flex gives it a somewhat harsh feel in bumps and variable snow (chunder)
- —Performance disappoints somewhat in ambiguous conditions, like the transition between powder and ice
