Never Summer Proto CTX Snowboard - Wide

Item #NVS0113 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

True all-mountain destroyer

By Dogfunk.com Employee February 15, 2012

The snappy, stiff tail of the Proto CT was a bit of a shock on the first run, but after a few chunky turns I made my way into some deep tree stashes, over a few little drops, and then sent a 15'er on an exposed chute where the stiffness and added camber truly excelled. It's super-fast on groomers and once I did get into some deeper pow, the rocker really shined. The only reason I gave the 154cm I rode 4 out of 5 is because it's a bit stiff for my style and size (150lb, 5'9") so the EVO's playfulness is more for me. Otherwise, this boards kicks more ass than Jet Li on a kill-binge.
