25/26 · 24/25 · 23/24 · 22/23 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The upper-tier version that makes the Mercury more dynamic and lively. It raises the pop while keeping the damping, and its strong switch capability makes it strong as a park-oriented all-mountain board.
It's expensive, though, and weak on rough snow.
A closer look
These descriptions and scores are linked to this review. They may differ from manufacturer specifications.
Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
A hybrid construction where camber continues just past the bindings before transitioning into pronounced rocker right before the nose and tail. It keeps the Mercury's character while raising rebound.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium flex at 6 out of 10. Pop and liveliness are clearly better than the standard Mercury while damping is maintained.
