Strength:
Its lack in graphics, makes it look really cool. Nice and stiff , good for everything (Frestyle/freeride).
Weakness:
Might be hard for a bigginer rider, but will over all it would be a better buy than a cheap loose board. I like this board a lot, for the price I paid of a last years pro model, it is worth evry dime. I've scapped rocks and this thing holds up great. Recomended to any one who is not out to flash some bling bling, but to ride a great inexspensive board. Similar Products Used: Thothin like it |

Strength:
Stiff, Freeride board w/ Pipe and Air capabilities. Responsive, smooth.
Weakness:
You've got to be technical to ride it. SICK board. Amazing carver,smooth, super stiff, softer tail. Great pop. Haven't gone off any jumps yet. Great in powder, takes some getting used to in the moguls and glades.People will be cheering you on from the chairlifts a you carve. Don't grind with it. Keep the old board. Similar Products Used: ...sickest board I've tried. |

Strength:
Good deep sidecut and awesome pop, good stiff and over all feel
Weakness:
to narrow, and a bit to heavy i bought this board over the summer and yesterday was the first time i had gotten a chance to ride it. I was really impressesed with the response and quick turning. i felt very stable but like the above said this board has no give and is not forgiving at all. I wouldn't suggest a beginner to get this board because of the super stiff flex but an excellent board for a more confident rider. Similar Products Used: balance, dragon |

Strength:
turning... speed into jumps and speed in general.. this board is on super light, and a dope looking finish
Weakness:
the board gets scratched up easily, and on this type of finish, it shows woa..... what a fast riding board... carves like a british butcher.. edge to edge is amazing, but at first you ahve to get used to it... once u get it down, you own all that is around you... |

Strength:
Very very fast turning, super narrow waist (thinner than a Balance), and stiff as hell. Loads of pop off the tail, great when you get it right. Carves fantastically, pipe or park. Fantastically fast and stable on landings when you are inch perfect.
Weakness:
Not forgiving at all. I know that people say this about all performance boards, but it''''s not true. I have others that are more forgiving than this. Landing switch can be simply scarry at times....no give at all, you want to be inch perfect. The only real weakness is that the hole pattern sucks. Can''''t get my stance. I hate boards that have four holes that are spaced so wide apart. To get my stance I have to be either completely centred (which rides like a twin) or too far back (set back around 4cm - too much). I prefer six hole patterns that allow you to move bindings to get your stance and your set back. Not too sure on this board right now, riden it about twenty times and it takes some getting used to. Overall, great construction, super stiff, and extremely fast beneath the feet, changes edge on a dime (24cm waist!!). Really like the board, but it rides very stiff and is not easy to get used to. Unforgiving. Fantastic when you get it right.... Similar Products Used: Burton Balance, Burton Rippey, Burton Seven, Morrow Todd Richards (that''''s my current list of boards). Ridden many more. |
