Strength:

damp, good edge hold, transitions edge to edge quickly, great in powder and groomers, very versitile. The board is a 163cm but turns more like a 158cm. Base is super tough, last winter was one of the worst in the PNW but the board only suffered 1 minor scratch to the base!

Weakness:

non that I have found after 20+ days on it.

Allian is a great company. Board is super solid and rides like a dream in all conditions.

Strength:

Super dampening,strong edge hold.

Weakness:

The board is way Heavy! If you are tired the board can be a little twitchey. Most people who try it found it a lot to handle. I didn't think so.

This is a very resposive board. It runs a little on the heavy side. It has a lot of pop. Super fast. I rode it on the east coast most of the season and it felt a little big. But when I took it to Snow bird it was right at home. Overall a fast base with a sold ride for a bigger guy who can handlt the power of a rocket. Nice and narrow! Sweet Ride

I rode the Nidecker Bab's 159 the season before. I also liked that board.

Strength:

Stable and easy to control, sometimes even at big speed.

Weakness:

Too narrow (waist:just 240mm)- I used to get edgebites every time; and too heavy. Also pretty stiff for a freestyle board

I am not sure if I really like it. Sometimes the board surprizes me when landing something huge, but most times it sucks. Not a good jibbing board
