Expert reviews 1
A large specialty board specialised for high-speed riding, delivering powerful stability and carving performance once you build speed. The difficulty of low-speed control and slow edge-transition response make it better suited as an advanced specialty board for special occasions than as a daily driver.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A camber-rocker-camber construction, but overall a camber-dominant hybrid camber profile. Magnetraction is applied along the full length to reinforce edge grip.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A large 195cm board with a strong flex and a hard character offering excellent stability at speed. Its stiffness suits high-speed carving alongside skiers.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A large 195cm board that's hard to control at low speed and only settles once speed rises, which suits advanced riders. It's very difficult for beginners and intermediates to handle.
Good
- ✓Excellent stability and powerful carving performance at speed
- ✓Magnetraction gives it excellent edge grip for a 195 cm board
- ✓Strong performance descending slopes at speed alongside skiers
Not so good
- —The sidecut acts excessively at low speed, making balance difficult
- —Slow edge-to-edge response is a disadvantage for quick direction changes
- —A specialty board that's hard to ride day to day, so it lacks versatility
