Powder Sucks Snowboard

The Stepchild Powder Sucks Snowboard rips park runs, kills it in the pipe, boosts off natural features, and yes, even rides powder pretty well. The crew at Stepchild may have been in a cynical—or perhaps ironic—mood when they named the Powder Sucks Snowboard, but that didn't stop them from giving this Transworld Snowboarding '09 Good Wood Award-winner a snappy tip-to-tail poplar core. A centered stance and true twin shape lets you rip a tree stash and then charge a Cab 3 in the park without any binding adjustments.

Bottom Line: Bring your park-honed moves to every inch of the mountain with the Stepchild Powder Sucks Snowboard.

Im in love with this board, It has been a blast since the first time I got on it. I get so many compliments from other boarders too. Its graphics are great. I love Powder though and my board seems to rock out there as well. Great all around and a good value.

I got this board in hesitation, but as soon as i got on it i loved it. i'm not much of a jib person, but the board has got some nice pop and is super fast, i've never been beat down the hill yet. sweet all around board with a great flex, and awesome graphics.

Powder sucks rips

I rode this board at an industry demo in feb. The powder sucks is a super fun board for a great price. It is a fun twin shape which I would rate amazing. A good way to think of this board is a soft jib board with a little something extra. I would compare this against boards like the Rome Artifact.
