Parkstar-so hood at this, so good at this

By Dogfunk.com Employee March 17, 2010

Don't let the name "PARKstar" fool you, this board dissects the whole mountain. The rocker is subtle when cruising groomers or off-trail, but very noticeable on boxes and rails. Parkstar provides enough power to take euro-carving to the absolute extreme but supple enough to nose press a box for a week-okay, maybe not that soft. The board is very lightweight and spins like a top. The graphics on both the topsheet and the base are capable of producing vertigo if you stare too hard. The base is hard and fast and held wax in 50°+ temps with slushy snow. Scoop it up for a quiver killer board, you'll be stoked.
