On the snow
A board designed for powder with a deep swallow tail: take it out in a couple of feet of the fresh stuff and you'll never forget it. The nose stays afloat both on the uphill and the down, and when you lean back on the tail you can immediately feel the difference in flex and let rip. Versatile on big lines, with a soft, progressive flex; in the right conditions it can help even beginners to shift their weight back, and could be the second board of more experienced riders.
