Expert reviews 1
A large powder-specialised board with a Float Camber profile and a pin tail design, standing out for excellent float and high-speed stability. It turns surprisingly nimbly for its size and performs stably across varied snow from powder to groomed slopes. It's a first-choice recommendation for intermediate and above riders looking for a dedicated powder board, particularly those who enjoy wide-open terrain.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A Float Camber profile with camber through most of the board's middle and rocker blended into the nose tip. The camber section provides carving stability while the rockered nose smooths turn initiation and raises powder float.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A stiff flex at 7 out of 10, providing high-speed stability and carving performance. Torsional flex is quite loose, so it feels somewhat forgiving for a board of this length.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A stiff 7/10 flex and large 164–172cm sizing make it unsuitable for beginners; it suits intermediates and up with some speed and powder experience. Its generally stable, forgiving character means intermediates can enjoy it too.
Good
- ✓It responds as nimbly as a smaller board despite its size, allowing fast, tight turns too
- ✓The wide rockered nose gives it excellent powder float that lifts naturally with no extra effort
- ✓Very stable at speed, cruising comfortably even on unpredictable snow
- ✓The pin tail shape prevents the tail sinking, providing a distinctive surfy feel in powder
Not so good
- —Only two large sizes (164 cm and 172 cm) are offered, leaving no option for smaller riders
- —Unsuited to park, freestyle and trick terrain — it's specialised for dedicated powder and all-mountain use
