Awesome for the price

By Ranked #374 - Wide Snowboards December 30, 2009

This is an awesome board for a newb. Just starting to take the hill a little more seriously this year and I picked it up at the start of the season.6', 180lbs, sz13 shoe (sz12 boot)Brigade 159, LTD LT20 bindings.Great flex, and awesome feel, floats great over powder and doesn't chatter very much over ice. TONS of pop when you want it. Great feel through the bindings, I run my stance as wide as I can get it on the board, and I can tell every little nuance I run over on the hill. Don't let the setback throw you off either, I ride switch all the time and it's hardly noticeable. I'd highly recommend it to anyone starting out, or more serious. Wicked board for the price.
