21/22 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A women's all-mountain board putting a directional twin on continuous rocker. The rocker keeps it catch-free while enough flex lets it hold up at speed, and turning, slashing and tree runs are its strengths.
Pop is lacking and low-speed agility falls off, though, so it isn't for the park. It suits upper-intermediate riders who want one board for a range of conditions.
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.
Rocker
Continuous rocker from tip to tail with a directional twin shape. It's catch-free and forgiving, yet the flex isn't mushy, so it's stable for a rocker board. It uses a sintered base.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium flex at 6 out of 10. Stiff for a rocker profile, so low-speed agility and presses take effort. In exchange, it holds up as speed builds.
Terrain suggested in the review
Rider levels suggested in the review
Intermediate · Advanced
Being a rocker it looks forgiving, but it has real flex resistance, so it isn't recommended for beginners. It's for intermediate to advanced women riders wanting one board for varied snow.

- ✓It handles trees and bumps well (4/5)
- ✓Stable cruising groomed slopes and passing through chopped-up snow
What the review found lacking
