Expert reviews 1
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.
Base shape (camber)
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.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-stiff flex at 8 out of 10. Good pop and responsiveness make it favourable for getting airborne.
Where it shines
Who it suits
For advanced to expert riders. You need to understand technical turns and be able to drive them with a positive back-foot angle.
Good
- ✓Very strong carving with outstanding spring coming out of turns
- ✓Good pop and responsiveness, an advantage for air tricks
- ✓Definite powder float thanks to the setback despite the reduced taper
- ✓Improved tail width has improved landing stability
Not so good
- —It feels somewhat heavy
- —It gets scratchy on firm, irregular snow
- —Its strong directionality makes switch riding demanding
- —Not suited to jibbing or park tricks
