26/27 season review
https://thegoodride.com/snowboard-reviews/amplid-soulmate-snowboard-review/

For riders who wanted the flagship but balked at the price. It does not have that board's legendary damping, but it is fun, poppy and fairly easy to ride for this much camber. It turns well and works as a versatile freeride board. The gripe is that the set-back does not line up with the reference stance, so easy directional float is limited.

Base shape (camber)

Hybrid camber

Mostly camber. It is surprisingly easy to ride for having this much camber.

StiffnessHigher means stiffer

5/10

Medium — poppy, and it will butter reasonably well.

Advanced and up — an option for riders who wanted the flagship but not its price.

Good

  • Strong value for the price
  • Good pop
  • Easy to ride for this much camber
  • Genuinely fun to turn

Not so good

  • Not as damp as the flagship
  • The set-back does not match the reference stance, so directional float is limited

A freeride board that puts a tapered directional outline on what is effectively full camber. The medium flex makes it forgiving for a camber board, and the pop and rebound out of turns make it fun to throw around. Damping is lacking, though, so your line gets knocked around on rough snow; powder float disappoints relative to the setback; and the extruded base limits glide. It suits lighter upper-intermediate riders who want to ride groomed slopes and steeps playfully.

Base shape (camber)

Camber

Traditional camber running essentially tip to tail, with only a very subtle early rise laid on top. The outline is tapered and there's 15mm of setback, but in practice it feels closer to centred than directional.

StiffnessHigher means stiffer

5/10

Biax glassing with a poplar Omni core sets a medium flex. It's soft for a full camber freeride board, so it's forgiving with good pop and turn rebound. Damping is lacking, though, so it slaps back the surface at speed.

Advanced

Full camber, but the soft flex makes it forgiving for a freeride board. Damping is lacking, though, so lines get bounced on rough snow and high-speed stability is low, fitting intermediates and up with solid fundamentals — especially lighter riders.

Good

  • Good pop from the full camber, with a lively ollie response
  • Good rebound out of turns, making it fun to throw around
  • The soft flex makes it forgiving for a technical full-camber board
  • Playful on groomed slopes and steeps

Not so good

  • Lacking damping, so it gets bounced off line on choppy snow
  • Powder float doesn't deliver as expected despite the setback — it feels centred
  • The extruded base is a disadvantage for glide and speed
  • Not enough support for heavier riders (around 84 kg and up)
