Expert reviews 1
The Whitespace Maax is a directional all-mountain board newly released for the 25/26 season, delivering powerful rebound and edge hold through a camber-plus-nose-rocker hybrid profile and dual carbon layers. A medium flex and a volume-shift design let it be used broadly from park to powder on one board, suiting it as a main board for intermediate and advanced riders. It looks like a powder board but is actually a versatile board that adds powder performance to all-mountain riding overall.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A camber-based hybrid that maintains the camber profile across most of the board and transitions into rocker at the nose tip. It provides camber's powerful rebound and rocker's catch-free character at once.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex versatile enough for everything from park to powder. Carbon woven into the fibreglass provides high rebound and pop for its flex, pushing back harder the more pressure you apply.
Where it shines
Who it suits
A medium flex, strong rebound from carbon and a directional shape suit intermediates and up, while beginners may find its rather aggressive edge response and character demanding.
Good
- ✓Dual carbon layers (Carbon Triax plus Carbon X45) provide excellent rebound, pop and edge hold
- ✓8mm of taper, an extended nose and a short tail secure excellent float and directionality in powder
- ✓The volume-shift design lets you ride 3–6cm shorter than usual, improving manoeuvrability and versatility
- ✓A progressive sidecut realises smooth turn entry and powerful lock-in at once
Not so good
- —Despite looking like a full powder board, actual dedicated powder performance may not reach a specialist powder board
- —Designed to target intermediates and above, so it isn't suitable for beginners
