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.
A distinctive all-mountain board combining a swallowtail with directional camber, providing a surfy turn feel and strong hardpack grip at once. Its medium flex makes it usable across a broad range from beginners to advanced riders, delivering an enjoyable ride in both powder and on groomed slopes.
It takes time to adapt to weighting the nose, but once you're used to it you can enjoy a special sensation like riding a wave.
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 directional camber construction: floating camber (rocker) at the nose provides buoyancy in powder, while directional camber through the body provides strong edge grip on hardpack.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Medium stiffness. The nose is somewhat stiff, providing pop and power, and overall it's a balanced flex that makes turn initiation easy while retaining edge hold.

Medium stiffness makes turn initiation easy even for beginners, gives intermediates all-mountain versatility and provides advanced riders with surfy playfulness and carving performance — broad level compatibility.
What the review liked
- ✓The swallowtail combined with directional camber provides excellent edge grip even in hardpack and icy conditions
- ✓The big nose's floating camber realises excellent buoyancy and a surfy turn feel in powder
- ✓Stable, composed riding even across varied snow (bumps, moguls, slush, ice)
- ✓Broad level compatibility usable all-mountain in any conditions
What the review found lacking
- —The swallowtail character requires time to adapt to shifting weight toward the nose, which can feel awkward transitioning from a conventional all-mountain style
- —The short tail limits expression in tail-based tricks such as butters
