This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A new camber profile and tweaked shape transformed this into a very fun all-conditions ride for snowsurfers. The early versions were not really groomer boards, though they floated incredibly well for their size.
Today it is a very recommendable all-conditions snowsurf ride.

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Directional camber
A tapered directional camber. A new camber profile and tweaked shape transformed it; earlier versions were among the brand's first surf rocker boards.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Medium-stiff, yet buttering is not hard.

The Storm Chaser has become an all-conditions snowsurf board through its overhaul. A new camber profile greatly raised its carving and stability while keeping powder float intact.
It suits a slot in a quiver centred on directional powder riding.

Board profile

Directional camber
A setback directional camber where camber runs from the tail to midway through the front inserts. Stability is greatly improved over the past flat-to-rocker version, and early rise handles powder float.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium-stiff flex at 7 out of 10. The nose is medium while it's stiff from the inserts to the tail.
