I ride all mountain but love the playfulness of park boards. How does this thing handle speed and chop?

Ben whatever is obviously an idiot. THe fastplant is probably the best all-around park board ever. It's not reverse cambered it's jib rocker which is flat between binding and slight reverse outside the bindings. Of course it's not good for hard carves its a park specific deck. REad my review here http://buzz.snow.com/channels/buzz_channels/snow-squad/b/weblog/archive/2011/02/03/2010-2011-k2-fastplant.aspx the fastplant is THE deck if you want to advance your park riding. I have also ridden my 151 on many 9"+ powder days being 5'9" and 160lbs.

vary poorly it was a jib rocker witch makes it vary unstable at high speeds and it is terrible for hard carves and it is way to soft to take in to any powder....... hope that helped
