23/24 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A board specialised for powder and slush, combining camber underfoot with a large directional rockered nose to optimise it for playful, skatey riding. Tail washout when carving, unstable park landings and nose flapping at speed mean it's better used as a quiver board than a daily driver.
It shows its strengths in slushy powder conditions and casual freestyle riding, but it isn't suited to technical carving or big-mountain riding.
A closer look

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
A hybrid construction with camber underfoot and rocker at the nose and tail. A large directional nose rocker provides powder float, while the camber underfoot generates pop and snap.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
No explicit flex figure is given, but as a slush/powder-specialised board focused on playful use, and given that the tail washes out easily, it appears to be a soft to medium flex. It lacks stiffness for big-mountain conditions.
Terrain suggested in the review
Rider levels suggested in the review
Intermediate · Advanced
Better as a quiver board than a daily driver, it's recommended for intermediates and up who understand and can exploit its behaviour in specific conditions such as powder and slush. For beginners, carving washout and irregular pop can breed bad habits, so it isn't suitable.
What the review liked
- ✓The large directional nose delivers excellent float and plough-through in powder and slush
- ✓Camber underfoot generates pop and snap, making park and freestyle play possible
- ✓Optimised for skatey, playful riding — slush, spray and presses
- ✓All-mountain versatility lets it handle a range of snow conditions to some degree
What the review found lacking
- —The short fishtail causes tail washout at the apex of carve turns
- —The large nose causes nose flapping (vibration) on fast groomers
- —Snow kicks up onto the nose on park landings
- —The short tail lowers trick landing stability and leaves safety lacking on big-mountain steeps
- —Used as a daily driver, it can limit progression in skills such as carving and pop
