The Ride Yukon is amazing! I am 5'10, 173 lbs. with a size 13 boot and intermediate advanced rider. I just came off of a Ride Timeless and the Yukon 159cm blows this board out of the water. It carves great and when you hit the pow you fly right through it. No more toe or heel drag and tons of amazing responsiveness. This board is not for the light at heart because when you engage the edge, it holds like no other. No sliding out of this one. It is not a very forgiving board so I suggest you know what you are doing when you get on it. I am a smaller guy on a wider board and it works better then my previous board(s). Great carving, amazing speed, superb stability and it was satisfactory in the park but I personally do not do too much park work. A must buy for intermediate advanced, big footed riders.
