Review:
Mislabeled rail killer. This is a "beginner" board, due to
its simplicity to ride. It glides into turns and links with
little to no effort. But this board shines on rails. Its
perfectly balanced for a woman's weight for all terrain, and
has just enough stiffness to land some serious airs. This
was my girlfriends first snowboard, and after the purchase
of her "good" board, this became her terrain park killer.
The only downfall is its construction, which seems to be
holding up so far, but we'll see. So far no problems, just
doesn't seem to be that good to last years. If it lasts
through 2009 I'll be impressed. But still, excellent
beginner board. |

Review:
This board is a step down from last years model on 1 point,
the ultra high gloss mirror polished surface. Due to this,
it doesnt build ice on the topsheet, but it makes riding
without a stomp impossible. At first glance, its very stiff.
But it breaks in fast. The board has incredible pop, and the
updated graphics are clean, yet elegant. The sintered base
is extremely fast, and the cut of the board overall makes it
an excellent ride. The nose is also strengthened with Forums
ice breaker plate covering the tip to prevent the nose from
getting cracked. White with gold pin stripes and diamonds,
the board screams p-i-m-p, but the gloss deck gives it -.5
point. |
