The Good RideRead source
#carving#tricks

An alternative freeride board aiming at aggressive carving and air tricks together. The overhaul reduced the taper, raising versatility, and carving spring and pop are its strengths.

It's for technical advanced riders.

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.

Directional camber

A directional camber that is mostly camber with considerable early rise just before the nose. It's easier than full camber but still not forgiving of skidded turns. A recent revision reduced taper and widened the tail.

How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.

8/10

A medium-stiff flex at 8 out of 10. Good pop and responsiveness make it favourable for getting airborne.
