Although the seasons been over for a while, we’ve steadily been releasing product reviews of various 2013 product. Unfortunately due to injuries, random gnargoyle attacks, and a crappy snow season there weren’t as many as in previous years. But for now here’s a break down of everything into one place. Expect to see awards in the near future for stand out products that rated high on the awesome scale.

You should have a board selected app….. Enter ht weight type of boarding you want to do etc and have it select the best board. Much easier than reading the multide of reviews…..
You want to build it go for it. I don’t believe in those things.
Any chance getting a Nitro “Ultimate” review soon? Does it deliver or all hype…
Much apprecaited.
Cheers…
No board reviews till next year.
What board would you recomment if i’m a 90 percent freerider, and 10 percent park on some days. A board that will hold well on all types of snow, whether powder, hard packed, icy, bumpy snow, etc. Thanks
210 Rad Air Tanker.
Hey man, so I have been really looking for a good fit for me and haven’t really figured it out. I rode the Ride Crush and that was a bit too soft and also I rode it’s 147 version and that seemed a bit too small. Now I am riding the Buckwild from 2012 and it’s a 153 cm, but it is a bit too big and stiff for my taste. What board would be a great board for the park, (considering I ride a small resort and thats all we have), that is good for jibbing, but still has a good pop for hitting some nice-medium sized jumps? I am a lightweight guy and want something I can really control and not feel like it is so heavy. A few options would be great. Ps. I thought the Ride Kink would be good, but I am sure you of all people know some other underdog brands or something and have some great recommendations. Thanks!
Have you looked at something like the Rome Shank?
No I haven’t! is that a good suggestion? haha
It’s a board with pop that’s meant to be ridden smaller. Check it out.
Seems pretty legit man! I also looked at Smokin’ Snowboards “Team Series” board, and the Arbor west mark. What do you think about those?
All solid choices.
Okay cool, and last question… at 5’7″, 145 lbs. what size should i be looking at? like 149, 150?
You’re talking 1cm here is it really that big of a decision?
Well I meant like generally around that size, but no it isn’t. ha. Well thanks for the help dude.
