Liking the iCT

Ranked #53 - All Mountain Snowboards

I have the 2006 iCT - the jet black one. Believe it or not, but you can tell the difference with the intelligence system. On spring corduroy, the board doesn't chatter. When you are riding slow, it gently flexes through your turns. As you build speed it holds a tight edge and runs hard without chatter. The downside? Certain conditions - like pushing the nose down in wet powder - can cause the board to stiffen in response to a deep flex. This has resulted in my traveling over the nose of the board on several occasions. Base is tough, holds lots of wax, and rides really fast. Feels pretty light, but I didn't weigh it against other boards. It appears well constructed and still looks good after 30 days. After living with it for a season, I think it is a good value all around.
