Rossignol Angus Amptek Snowboard - 2011

Giving it three stars, because it just doesn't last. Bought one in January and it had two breaks in the side walls and the top sheet was cracking along both edges. Though it was maybe just my board or my riding, but a friend bought the same board shortly after I did....same thing. When I compare my Rossi board to any other board I find the edges are significantly thinner which I believe leads to some of these problems. Also neither one of us can keep wax in the base longer than a day.

All that being said, the board has to be one of my favorite rides ever! Has the edge holding pop of a regular camber board when on groomers and jumps. Yet, still floats while slaying the powder with the rocketed tip/tail.

Great ride poor durability.

This is my second Angus, and I love it just as much as the first one. Great all around board. Can carve, jib and ride pow with the best of them. Amptek allows me to ride a shorter board (157) and it is good for all but the deepest fluff. Overall, a great board for just about any type of rider, the more you push it the more it can handle. And for the price, it especially rips. Enjoy!
