This board performs great! It handles the park just as well as back country. Can't find a thing I don't like about the performance. Has just the right amount of pop and stiffness for any situation. Now for the bad. After having this board out for two days it has 3 top sheet cracks, the top sheet is peeling on a seperate part of the board, there is large chip taken out of the tail, and various scratches that won't just rub off the top sheet. The board looks like it has survived a few hard seasons but really only handled two days. Very disappointing for a board of this price range. If the construction of the board was even half as good as the performance it would be a winner. Another friend purchased the same board and its core cracked the first day. Real shame.
