Expert reviews 1
A classic carving-specialised board that delivers powerful carving performance and excellent stability through a full camber construction and a stiff flex. It runs smoothly with no chatter even through chop and chunder, and it handles carving styles from Euro carves to short turns. There's no freestyle element at all, and it suits intermediate and above carving enthusiasts who can drive it actively with weight forward.
Base shape (camber)
Camber
A traditional full camber profile from contact point to contact point, providing powerful drive, precision, snap and power.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A sport-stiff level: not quite a death plank, but stiffness that clearly places it in the carving board category. The nose is barely softer and the flex stays consistent to the tail, while torsional flex is very stiff, making it hard to twist independently.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Handling its full camber construction, high stiffness and torsional flex takes considerable skill, suiting experienced riders who can shift weight forward and work the edge actively.
Good
- ✓Excellent stability and damping punch through chop and chunder easily
- ✓It delivers the powerful edge grip and hold that come from full camber
- ✓Its wide platform allows aggressive carving with no boot-out even laid over deep
- ✓It provides strong snap and rebound from the tail
Not so good
- —Not remotely suited to freestyle riding such as park, tricks or carve butters
- —Full camber and high stiffness make it hard for beginners and intermediates to handle
