Expert reviews 2
A new board for the 2025/26 season, a twin tip that carries both park playfulness and high-speed power through a camber-to-flat hybrid profile and Carbon Aramid Boosters. It comes strongly recommended to intermediate and advanced riders who want to enjoy the all-mountain aggressively with the park at the centre. It's balanced across pop, edge hold and ease of maintenance.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A camber-flat hybrid: traditional camber between the feet provides power and edge hold, while the nose and tail transition to flat, raising stability during presses and butters and giving a catch-free feel.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Slightly stiffer than the Outer Space Living, with a carbon aramid booster running kick to kick through the whole board for strong spring and pop while still being playful enough on small rails.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A carbon aramid booster gives it stiffness and pop, suiting intermediate to advanced riders who want to ride park and all-mountain at speed rather than beginners.
Good
- ✓The camber-flat hybrid construction provides powerful edge hold and a catch-free feel at once
- ✓Carbon Aramid Boosters transmit spring and pop evenly across the whole board, so it handles fast jumps and carves
- ✓A dual core with biax fibreglass makes for a light, highly responsive construction
- ✓The Cubed Superdrive base balances sintered performance against extruded ease of maintenance
Not so good
- —Its high responsiveness and stiffness present a barrier to entry for beginners
- —No powder- or backcountry-specific features, so performance on that terrain may be limited
