24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The 2025 Gentemstick Baby Mantaray 148 is a hard-flex board with a rocker-based hybrid construction and 1 mm of camber, and it floats well enough to make its 148 cm length feel irrelevant. It delivers the pure joy of riding across varied environments — powder, tree runs and side banks off the piste — and it particularly suits women riders with sufficient leg strength and lighter advanced male riders.
