Tiny midget learns to love the pow

By Midge Ranked #203 - Boards April 25, 2009

After 15 years of snowboarding, this board changed my life. Standing just shy of 5 foot nothing, I've tried every board under the sun to complete my quiver. Every year, I end up head over heels when my nose dips into the pow. Long boards, short boards, women's, men's, nothing kept it from happening. When the Malolo came out in 05, everyone kept talking about how amazing it was. I felt left out of the party, and accepted that while powder was fun, I couldn't see what the hype was about, since it was so much work. When they finally launched a 149 (rumor has it JG, Burton's innovator, wouldn't agree to a little one, even for his own girlfriend!), I snapped it up, and I can honestly say it's like cheating. It's a mogul destroying, chop busting floating machine, and I finally understand the hype. I now love hippie soul carving.
