I freaking love this board! kinda wish it had some more holes forward. because i would also use more often on groomed and park features. it's the most versatile Corey Smith collab board and best value pow board. will put smile on your face, even if you are an angry snowboarder.!
Demoed the Panhandler at Stowe and LOVED it. Just added the Spring Break 151 to my quiver and stoked to ride it during these recent NorEasters then spring slush up in Vt. It may be my new go to ride. Thanx oh and uhh good video Angry!
Go buy this board, you won't regret it. It's nice and floaty and nimble in powder. On groomers it's so easy to initiate turns and then drive out of with your back leg. Definitely one of the funnest decks I've ever ridden.
160x56kg and have a 143. Simply love it!
It’s like the base is made of butter! So much damage after 1 ride. Has anyone else had similar issues?
I was finally able to take the Slush Slasher out this past weekend, it was awesome - loved it, so much fun! Unfortunately when I checked my base at the end of the day I noticed a ton of dings, scratches, and gouges. It was surprising considering I only did 1 park lap and otherwise rode the same as I’ve been riding forever (20+ years). This is the first time I’ve seen a board base get damaged so easily. My friend who rode with me the same day had a gouge taken out of his brand new Slush Slasher as well. Another friend who had the slush slasher told me he had to ptex his after 2 rides.
They must’ve changed something about the base cause I didn’t have this problem with my 2021 model.
Really enjoy all your videos.I was wondering in your opinion what size Slush Slasher I should get ? I’m currently riding the War Pig in a 148. I’m 5’9 162 Lbs. I was thinking the 143 since it has a wider waist width then the War Pig.
You could do either a 43 or 47 it's really dealers choice.
This looks really fun. I m thinking about buying for power days and silly park laps. I m 5’ 8” , 172 lbs , boot #10. What size do you think Iit work better for me?
Thank you for the reviews, they are spot on.
Snag that 47.
which would you choose ? , the SS ,the 420ph, the Sushi or the Orca ....which one ..... ?
Sure.
Would you recommend this board to a resort rider? I ride in the northeast and take weekend trips often. Every other year I take a trip out to Vail and Beavercreek to get away from the east. This seems like a super fun board that I would enjoy and use as my main board. I ride an outdated ride machete from years ago and it’s just not doing it for me .
Fuck yeah man, it might give you a new perspective on snowboarding.
Sean, I just rode the SS at Stratton in deep pow and it was AMAZING but when i hit the groomers and packed out trails it was a blast to just carve and slash and rip it up. Highly recommend! Go for it and can get them cheap too.
Just ordered a 151 im 5'9" 220lbs size 12 foot. Ahould be perfect but gained like 45 pounds getting thru school. Wondering how it will feel when i get back to my target weight of about 180. Wondering if the 147 is a better choice then. But i love both tight tree riding as well as super fast euro carves. Wondering if its a massive diff between 151 and 147
51 is fine.
So I weigh 210 and I bought the 147 PBR edition slush slasher thinking the volume shifted, wide style would be able to support my weight. Only to see that the weight limit for 147 is 180. Should I just re-sell my PBR edition and grab a regular 151 or send it on the 147?
No.
@@AngrySnowboarder so just keep the 147?
Im 5’7 180 pounds ….which size would you recommend
47
Any suggestions for bindings that would be a good match for the slush slasher?
Would this be a good board for East coast powder riding and spring conditions or would the jones mind expanded be better.
Also for just ripping the resort
Both will fit the bill.
And would a 143 work well for a person that is 5’8 170lbs
So I ended up purchasing this board after watching this video, so thank you for that! I was just wondering how well this thing handles hard charging groomers because I am on the fence about purchasing a burton custom x as well. I initially bought this as a pow day and spring board. I am probably on the cusp of intermediate and expert and I am doing a trip out west for 4 months this winter trying to hit all the epic and ikon resorts. Should I go ahead and get the custom x for those days to just rip groomers or will this have me set? I have a process Flying V as well but I hate how much it chatters and washes out on me at high speeds, I really need something that’ll do better than that board does when I feel like having some hard ass come yell at me for going too fast after I’ve already been at the base long enough to slam a beer a gear up again.
Get that Custom X.
Angry Snowboarder thanks man, went ahead and did it. Love the channel also, I hate hearing people review things between the spectrum of ok and great. I love that someone is willing to say something blows when I does.
Hey I'm 5'10" 155lb and spend 90% of my time riding on the east coast. Would this be a reasonable board for throwing turns on normal New England days ( usually pretty firm groomers) or would I only really be using it in the late season or on days with heavy snow (relative to New England)? If so, what size would you recommend? Appreciate the advice and love the content.
Mid season pow days if you get it and slushy spring days. Boilerplate days you're going to not have a good time. Get the 147.
Awesome. Thanks for the input.
Looking to get the 2020. East coast resorts some light powder , starting a quiver will compliment my Arbor Iguchi pro camber. 5’ 9 200lbs 143 or the 147?
47 baby!
hey , im use to riding camber boards, my does it all fav is the flight attendant 159 then offf axis then customx. love euros, carving high speeds, jumps and pow. 5'10 215 lbs, use to aggressive riding. which size would be good? ridin up in the rockies so mix of all snow
Depends on your boot size but either the 47 or the 51.
thanks guy that made me stoked to buy a board!
Thanks for the awesome review. I am thinking about getting that as a second board besides my 161 Mercury as a pow, slush, and fun toy.
I am 6,36 and 207 lbs, mostly riding in the alps. Do you think the 151 is fitting or is it better do go 147?
Either would work for you, probably push you more towards the 51.
What size would be right for someone who is 5 10 and 160 pounds but still growing and would want to use the board in the future?
47
Would this be a good choice for a fun second board? I live on the ice coast and use the NS proto type two as my only board at the moment. I mainly just rip groomers but we the occasional good snow each winter. It seems pretty affordable but I’m still on the fence if I should get a park board or something to screw around with on hard pack and some pow days
This is the perfect compliment to what you have and makes sense if you're starting to develop a quiver.
Angry Snowboarder do you think the k2 party platter or the yes 420 would be any more fitting for groomers or is the slush slasher the way to go? I appreciate the quick responses as well keep up the great content
Slush Slasher or Party Platter not the 420.
wellmax seems like a good option
I have ride SupePig, i found this pretty cheap on ads, i thought this is a powder board, but all of the reviews tells me that it can do more. So im wondering is it still ok to use it for pow only and tree runs? :)
You’re fine.
Do you think it would make sense to add this board as a quiver to my Jones Flagship? Or wouldn’t it be worth it, because the flagship is already good enough in Pow/trees?
I'd do it as it adds a low angle slush party board.
@@AngrySnowboarder Okay neat. Will a downsized Capita DOA as parkboard still fit in there or should I save that money and use the Slush Slasher in park too?
@@skahww1036 I'd get a different park board if you want one that bad.
Looking at getting this board to take to Japan, what do you recon ?
Also looking at the Burton Bottom Feeder
You might want something a bit bigger and beefier for Japow.
Do you think it’s worth getting a slush slasher when I already have a wayfinder in my quiver? I’m tempted to get one for fuck around days and slush days
Those boards ride so different, I'd say it wouldn't be a bad option.
Angry Snowboarder thanks! You confirmed my thoughts about it. Just snagged the 147
For tightish trees and medium angle pow (Steamboat), would you go with the slush slasher or a Rome Powder division?
Slush slasher if those are your only two choices.
@@AngrySnowboarder 10-4, I'm open to other decks for sure, just want something more specialized for that type of riding than my current Rome National, even though it does fine. I'll have to swing by powder tools here soon and give that slush slasher a try. Thanks for the reply!
Honestly for Steamboat I think you'd be better off with a Superpig.
Angry Snowboarder true that, all my buddies who ride war/super pigs here absolutely swear by them, might even be a replacement for my national. I’ll check it out, thanks
Saw the 2020 review for the new orca. If you were to get the new orca or slush slasher, what would be your personal preference? Many thanks for your opinion.
Well they're really two different boards. I'd get the Orca because I like ripping pow and want a board that excels at that.
Picked up a 153 Orca today at my local shop. Pumped! Thanks for all the reviews and the words of advice!
@@AngrySnowboarder would you get the slasher for more kind of "everyday riding"? thanks a lot... since I was thinking about getting an Orca, but dont have pow so much here in Slovakia! cheers
@@lokooot I'd get it for party boarding.
Thanks as always for your reviews. Question: This board (151) or the Rossi Sushi LF wide? Looking for a resort pow/trees board. 6'0, 195lbs, size 12 (if needed for recommendation)
Sushi.
@@AngrySnowboarder perfect, thank you
I have a question about which size to get. I'm currently 5'11 weighing about 140, should I get a 143 or 147 slush slasher? In souther CA resorts don't get too much pow, but will try to ride pow if getting the opportunity a couple times with this board. Which size would work best? Also, I feel like I would be riding this a little more in groomers and slush rather than pow
43 for sure.
How is the edge hold ?
I ride mountain in the middle of an island in the Pacific (Mt Ruapehu
In NZ) which means we have maritime weather, so we can have some magic days, but more often our snow is firm and icy.
I want something short and surfy to carve and play with. Will this handle or should I be looking at other boards first?
Eh you might be better off looking at some of the new Lib volume shifted boards like the Short Wide, Titty Fish, etc.
@@AngrySnowboarder Cheers for the input.
Which size would you recommend 143 or 147?
I'm approx. 150-55 pounds, size 8 boot, 172cm tall,
@@beezwaks 43 for sure.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thank you. One last last question and then I promise i'll leave you alone.
Apart from being quirky spring quiver board, I'm also keeping in the back of my mind about a trip to japan in the future. I've never been able to ride proper deep powder before, would the 43 be too short, or would I be ok just dieting a few months before going? haha
@@beezwaks If you've never experienced proper deep pow this board will get the job done, but you more or less need a deep days pow board something that's longer, more taper, maybe swallow tailed, and designed for that.
Came across your channel and really enjoy your review style. I am on the fence between this board and the Rome Powder Division to add to my quiver as a shorty for those occasional east coast pow days and something to throw around in the trees that can handle the end of day tracked out powder well. What would you recommend?
Slush Slasher, Powder Division is super stiff torsionally compared to it. Which makes it a slug in the trees and being that it's East Coast trees you need that flex.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thanks for the reply. I wiegh 180lbs and was leaning towards a 147 will I have enough float with this board on pow days or do you think I should go with a different size?
Unless it's super heavy chunder pow you should be fine. Just set it back and be prepared to lose any tail when landing anything and you should be golden.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thanks for the advise do you have any affiliate links for the 2019 model?
@@lynns0802 here you go bit.ly/2T9KNg9
Would you recommend this board to my quiver solely just to fuck around on? I live in socal so most of the time the conditions are slush in the afternoon at bear mtn/summit. I figure i could use this on tree runs in mammoth too. My only board is a proto type 2 with mala vita bindings. Is this combo dumb? Instead of the slush slasher do you think i would notice a difference on a dedicated park board such as the huck knife? I only do med/small jump straight airs with indy grabs, boardslide boxes, and struggle to lock in while 50-50'ing tubes. My butter game is mildly better but only on the tail since i broke my front knee in july :(.
I say add it to the quiver and prepare yourself to see the mountain entirely different.
@@AngrySnowboarder 143 or 147? Depending on how fit i am i can range 145-160 lbs. Would it still be ok with my mala vitas?
I'd get that 43 as you're at Big Bear. Yep those are solid on there.
Hi, What size did you ride? I didn’t see any weight range when I looked at the specs.
143
Angry Snowboarder thanks... trying to decide between the 143 or 147 for powder. I’m 5’9 150 pounds. Obviously the bigger one will float better but wondering if it’s overkill and the 143 would be just fine.
Heavy powder 47, blower powder 43.
Angry Snowboarder thank you sir. Here in Lake Tahoe California we get more of the heavier snow so 147 it is. Thanks!!
I’m 215 pounds , 5’9. 147cm or 151cm?
Either.
I’m 5,6 160 what size
43.
What would be some good party boarding bindings to pair with this?
Now x Yes or Brigades, Union Contact Pros, K2 Lien AT's just rip the heel block out for more of a surfy feel.
If anyone still has this bord and wanted to sell it write to me Please 🙏
