#carving#flex

A women's beginner-to-intermediate board with EC2 hybrid camber and a soft flex, whose excellent forgiveness and playful character optimise it for getting into park and learning the basics. Magnetraction makes up for the edge hold a soft flex usually lacks, providing stability even at moderately high speeds.

It isn't suited to riders who enjoy high-speed riding or aggressive carving, though.

Board profile

The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.

Hybrid rocker

An EC2 camber system with camber under the bindings and rocker between the feet — a hybrid construction providing camber's responsiveness and rocker's forgiveness at once.

How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.

3/10

A soft flex providing forgiveness and a playful feel. Magnetraction (wavy sidewall) compensates for the soft flex's weaker edge hold.

New · Intermediate

Its main target is beginner to intermediate women riders; rocker's forgiveness makes it good for learning and suitable for getting into park. It isn't suited to high-speed carving or aggressive riding, so it isn't recommended for advanced riders.
