Expert reviews 1
The United Shapes Cadet was one of, if not the, highlight of my riding season. It didn't blow my mind in any one place but always did well to really well in just about every condition — and what did blow my mind was how well it did in deep powder with the set-back inserts. It truly feels like you're buying two boards instead of one.

Directional camber
Directional camber in a tapered directional shape. With the set-back inserts it does remarkably well in deep powder — it truly feels like you're buying two boards instead of one.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Medium/stiff with moderate buttering.
Where it shines

Intermediate to expert — stable underfoot with fast turn initiation.
