Great board-looks good too

By Ranked #738 - Boards March 12, 2012

I was looking for a board for deep powder days in Japan and wasn't disappointed. I decided not to go for a fully directional or fish board because I like to ride switch and wanted to be able to use it in Europe and for short park runs. I was a bit worried it would be too long (I got the 147cm board, my other board measures 137cm..)but it was the a good size for the constant backcountry snow dump we got. It was great on groomers (although this might be due to the amazing quality of snow). I can't say how it performs on ice cause there was none. It's light, pops good but not great.
And last thing- the wooden decking and graphics make it a really classy looking board.
