Expert reviews 1
A directional all-mountain board with excellent pop and carving dynamism. The reviewer rated its turn feel and versatility highly enough to say it pushed the BSOD off their all-mountain preference list. Its stiff flex makes it a board for advanced riders.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A construction with a healthy camber arch at the centre and considerable early rise just before the nose and tail. It strikes a balance between locked-in responsiveness and forgiveness.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-stiff flex at 8 out of 10. It's especially stiff between the feet, the nose is soft enough to butter and the tail is very stiff.
Where it shines
Who it suits
For advanced to expert riders. With the right size a motivated intermediate can ride it, but you have to be able to load its stiff flex.
