21/22 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A medium-flex boot that suits freestyle best but carries straight over to all-mountain riding. It balances board feel and impact absorption well, and it stays playful while keeping some response.
Flexing it indoors felt like a 6/10, but actually riding it put it closer to 5–5.5/10. Exactly average width, true to size, and it gets better as you ride it.
