25/26 · 24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
Very heavy at around 1.28 kg each — nearly double the Burton Step On X (about 710 g), and next to the Step On family your whole setup gets noticeably heavier. The highback is very stiff, with almost no twist and virtually no lean, but an unexpected upside is that it doesn't bite your calf despite not rotating.
Nothing flexes underfoot, so the board feels much stiffer.
