Jones Stratos

The Jones Stratos isn’t a cheap board, but it does everything it says it will really well, and can pretty much justify the price.

Yes 420 Powderhull

The Yes 420 Powderhull is a slightly thinner and stretched out version of the super fat and wide 420, with a very unique concave base shape in the nose and tail.

Jones Hovercraft

The Jones Hovercraft is one of their classic powder boards, and one that I think is an easy choice if you want power, float and reliability with minimal effort.

Never Summer Harpoon 2022 Review The Never Summer Harpoon is a wider, directional and setback board that is made to ride a little bit of everything. The name is a joke aimed at the very popular Lib Tech Orca, another directional volume shifted board. It has the Fusion rocker camber profile, a medium flex and …

Bataleon Magic Carpet Review The Bataleon Magic Carpet has a design that you can’t find on many boards – a wide, twin shaped powder board. I was pretty skeptical, and didn’t expect that I would like it too much. Features of the Bataleon Magic Carpet TwinDefinitely not a common shape for a powder board. Normally …

Korua Shapes Transition Finder Review This review was based on the older model, which had more taper and was made in Poland. The newer models made in China are noticably softer. The Korua Shapes Transition Finder was one of those boards that was recommended to me, and once I got used to it, was one …

Nitro Squash Review The Nitro Squash was originally part of the Quiver series of boards, but got popular enough to become its own separate model in the regular lineup. There are now mens and womens regular and split options, as well as youth sizes. The 2024 model of the Squash has a new shape, but …

The Nitro Mountain is a fun, classic feeling all-mountain snowboard that does a little bit of everything well.

Burton Kilroy Pow

The new Kilroy Pow is based on the Stun Gun shape, but has a few features changes to keep the price down. A good value option for someone who doesn’t want to spends too much, but still needs the features of higher end boards.

Nitro Woodcarver

The Woodcarver is one of Nitro’s high end, carving boards that is still made to float in powder. It is a smooth and fast turning board that can handle a lot, but it isn’t a cheap one.

Burton Deep Thinker

The Deep Thinker is the directional, set back brother to the more freestyle focused twin Free Thinker. It was a board that I was really hoping that I would like, because I had heard good things from friends who have a similar riding style to me, and I like the way it looks, but it isn’t for me.

Salomon Dancehaul

Based on the Max Buri Pro, the Dancehaul is a shorter, wide width, tapered all-mountain board that does a bit of everything well. I really liked how it turned on groomed runs and …

Nitro Slash

The 2021 Slash is a giant change from previous years, where it is pretty much a completely new board now. I first rode the Slash in 2018, when it only came in the 163cm, and had the shaped balsa core. I liked it back then, but the the main thing the two boards have in common now is the name.

Never Summer Proto Slinger

A mix between the Funslinger and Proto Type Two, that is combined with the new Shock Wave camber profile. While the Funslinger and Proto both had their good place in the line, I think that this is a good replacement for park riders.

Never Summer Proto Synthesis

A big upgrade from the Proto Type Two, the Synthesis has a far more aggressive Shock Wave camber profile which I loved.

The original Proto had a decent upgrade to the Proto Type Two, which gave it the asymmetrical shape and more aggressive Ripsaw camber profile. The next step up is the Synthesis, which has a bigger step up in the camber profile, and a few extra features added in the core.

Bataleon Surfer LTD

The Bataleon Surfer LTD would be the most expensive board that I have ever ridden, and although I had heard good things, I was still really surprised about how well it rode. The LTD is the special limited version of the Surfer, with an upgraded base and lighter core, with only 150 being made.

Never Summer West Bound

Never Summer West Bound 2020 Review The Never Summer West Bound is a higher end all-mountain board, that has a stiffer flex, a little taper and a bigger floaty nose with the classic Never Summer feel.

The Slash ATV is a pretty full on, classic camber freestyle board that you can get loads out of, if you ride it hard.

Burton Free Thinker

Burton Free Thinker 2020 Review The Burton Free Thinker is a medium flexing, traditional camber twin board, which is exactly the type of ride I like. It is one of the two of Danny Davis’ boards, while the other Deep Thinker has a directional shape and directional camber. These sit in the middle of the …
