I recently purchased this board from a retail outlet, I have used it for about half a season in Alaska and love it. I haven't ridden the Fish or Malolo, both powder specific boards to compare the Supermodel too. The supermodel does really well in the deep powder we get dumped on us here in AK, yet is just as responsive on the piste. The only place I haven't taken this board is the park, but i'm not really into that, and this board is more of a mountain powder board anyway, at least thats what i was told upon purchase.

I've had my trillium stove base to go with my MSR for about 6 years now, and it finally has begun to fail on me, I dont know if its from water, snow, glacial dust, clay or some other crud, but i've tried some lubricants and it still seizes up taking too much force to pull apart, so alas, i'm ordering another one, and don't feel bad about it because these things are great, if you every use your whisperlite on unstable ground or any kind of snow/ice get one, it will pay dividends
