Review Detail
Light and responsive I rode this at MK Snowzone and Tamworth before taking it away to a real mountain and I was impressed on the snowslopes how easy it was to turn in comparision to other boards I had ridden, the real test was riding it on a slope that wasn't over in less than 30secs and WOW.

It was stable at high speed flat runs to get over rises and down to lifts, it transitions perfectly from piste to powder and back on again, it carves really nicely and it has enough pop to take jumps in its stride. I never once felt like I was in danger of catching an edge as it was so easy to turn.

I reckon with a decent set of bindings this board for me would be very hard to beat.

This is the best board I have ridden in a long time
