Expert reviews 1
The Yes Standard Xtrm DC is a high-performance all-mountain board that handles jumps, carving, powder and park alike on the basis of a mid-camber profile. Confidence and pop on jump lines in particular are among the best of the season, and a stiff flex plus a wide nose/tail provide stable riding across varied snow. It's a daily-driver-class board strongly recommended to advanced riders who want to cover every terrain on one board.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
YES's mid-camber profile: medium-sized camber between the feet that tapers off gently toward the nose and tail. It provides pop, stability and drive while easing turn entry and exit and float in powder.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A flex somewhat stiffer than medium, stiffest through the centre between the feet and softening slightly toward the nose and tail. Torsional flex is similarly stiff to the centre flex, and foot steering is possible but takes some effort.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A stiff flex, wide nose and tail and high pop suit experienced advanced riders, and beginners or intermediates may find it hard to handle.
Good
- ✓It performs outstandingly on jump lines, with a wide tail load-up zone and powerful spring enabling confident riding
- ✓Excellent all-mountain versatility delivers uniformly high performance across varied terrain and snow including powder, park and carving
- ✓It provides excellent edge holding even in icy conditions, maintaining stable edge grip on firm snow and ice
- ✓It has improved jibbing/buttering ability over the previous model, with eased Midbite providing a smoother feel during rail slides
Not so good
- —Rail tail presses take more force than buttering, putting it at some disadvantage in jibbing
- —The wide platform needs slight initial adjustment for short, fast edge transitions
