Expert reviews 1
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.
Base shape (camber)
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.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex at 6 out of 10. Pop and liveliness are clearly better than the standard Mercury while damping is maintained.
Where it shines
Who it suits
For intermediate to expert riders. Forgiving and stable, but as a premium park-leaning all-mountain board it takes a degree of ability to justify itself.
