December 22, 2008
I ride Loveland, Abasin and Vail and have ridden this board hard the few days I have had so far this season (10).
The board handles great on hard pack and crust carving tight and solid.
In the pow, it is amazing. Super fun to do surf slashes and eats up the trees.
The base has a structure to it so it is VERY fast, make sure to brush out the wax from the structure= fast!!
My only request is, More taper, while I like the small amount of camber and smaller tail, I would like to have at least 10-20mm of taper and a S-rocker like a burton fish along with Head's extensive size options ( 162, 168, 172!!) and Thanks to HEAD for offering some smaller waist widths. ( I am 6.3 and squeeze into a 9.5 boot).
Head customer service is amazing. i had some in-depth questions and I was forwarded to one of their pro testers...talk about service...the dude even called to make sure everything was cool!!
