22/23 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A freestyle-oriented all-mountain board with a hybrid construction combining positive camber and progressive rocker, delivering particularly excellent performance in powder and soft snow. It's demanding in icy conditions and its wide platform requires care in sizing, but its reasonable €400 price and high build quality make it an attractive option for backcountry and sidecountry 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.
Hybrid camber
A hybrid camber construction that keeps positive camber through the middle and transitions into progressive rocker toward the nose.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A considerably stiff board with a flex that demands the rider drive it with power. Rather than playful, it's a hard-charging board that demands direction and focus.
Terrain suggested in the review
Rider levels suggested in the review
Intermediate · Advanced
Controlling the board takes a degree of power and skill, and it's demanding in icy conditions. It suits intermediate and above riders rather than beginners.
