Amplid Singular is my all mountain freeride board choice for this winter so its nice to also see it on your list! 179cm , 88kg advanced rider so picked up the 162 for a little extra float in the good stuff!
An another Great top 5. Thanks a lot !!!
Seeing a Jones board not make the top 5, feels like watching Jermy Jones face planting and seeing the bottom of Cushing Pond.
Solid list,K2 is quality product
Good to see the Berserker hanging in there on this list. Going into my second season with mine after a strong recommendation from Angry. It got me back out on the mountain and it's been awesome. Definitely intrigued by the Snowboard of Death down the line.
It's like a magnet on the mountain. Best i can describe it.
You are required to listen to slayer while you ride the bsod
Always love the content
I am a 59 year old steamboat local who’s days of riding hard all day are in the rear view. But I can’t be chill all the time! Just got last years Passport as it’s so much cheaper than buying this years (and it’s the same board). Having ridden a lot of boards over my 35 years of riding I appreciate the reviews you’ve provided on the passport, which hasn’t gotten much attention overall, yet. I’ll update when I’ve ridden it a bit. FYI I am planning on riding an old Skeleton key on dawn patrols that I know will only be for a couple hours and look to the passport for all other sessions. Stay tuned……
Nice lib tech dynaBro. Real nice bro 😎
Can’t wait for that thunder review xD
Just ordered a jones mountain twin. Not the best of the best but I'm sure it will be great
Just picked myself up a K2 Passport on sale and man oh man is it worth the price. It's cheaper than most premium board like any Jones Never Summer or Burton and yet in a lot of ways it rides just as good in some ways and in a lot of ways better even. Holds an edge very well as most camber boards do and it is damp enough in the right spots to help you keep that edge through soft snow and chunder as well. Thanks for the recommendation and keep up the good work
Never Summer isn't premium.
Bought a bataleon boss last year can confirm the first time riding that board makes you feel a little drunk when your not used to it but honestly once I got that hang it was great
Thanks!
Looking at capita black or k2 passport. I’m 5’7”, 162 pounds, advanced rider with boot size 10 or 10.5. I rode a 154 k2 parkstar 8 years, then a 152 Gnu Mullair the last 5 but my toes occasionally drag when I’m leaned over with it. Do you have a size recommendation? Have you compared the capita black to capita kazu?
I have been wracking my brain and watched just about all of your all mountain videos as I am looking for a new board this season. I am retiring my NS Proto and looking for a board that is good in the trees as I spend a lot of time in their when out west, stable at decent speeds, carves well but I can also take little side hits on a groomer and “slight butter.” You mention the flagship in this one, does that seem like the route to go for those needs? Thanks for these great videos.
What you're ideally looking for in the trees is something with a ton of torsional flex so you can be quick with your ankle steering. Flagship wouldn't be my first choice, especially knowing you came off that turd the Proto. I'd instead be looking at something like a Salomon Sick Stick or comparable.
Excellent work, great list. Personally not a 3bt fan, does the passport have it on board.
Thanks man😎
It's a K2 so no it won't have 3BT.
This was a great list that amplid is my favorite of the five
Thanks for the props!

Good to see a Lib Tech in the group. I have a T Rice Pro and it absolutely Rocks.
Dynamo is sooooo much better than the trice pro, especially in the context of this list
Hello and thanks ! I ve been snowboarding with used sh*t gear for 20+years because i was poor and young … Finally now i m a dad , less active and less in shape but i get to buy something « good » , im leaning for a « all mountain freeride » to casually enjoy groom ski resorts , the view , the feel : hopefully practice some carving and buttering along the way… i m more of a laid back 6foot guy and i also enjoy cutting in powder on the sides or just pure backcountry once in a while .. but mostly on groomed sometime icy terrain ( because here on the east the snow is often less good - tho i sometime ride in the alps too) … i m still not 100% of what to get : any suggestions ? Eventho my lvl is « advanced » i never took the time to learn about boards and i only used what i could cheaply get ..so im not quite sure what im supposed to look for … im a total noob : i m not evensure if the bindings really do much difference i actually rode few season on broken binding and still managed lol ! In fact im flabbergasted when i see people with luxury new gear all around yet clearly dont know how to ride… also is 2023 board really important or a 2022 good too ? I heard of proto fr and lib orca or something too
Heck Yeahhh K2!! I'm gonna ride my Manifest Team into the ground and then the passport can replace it whenever it snaps
I have the 2021 Bataleon Thunder.... Solid As!
Torn between the Singular and the Passport. Which one would fit an upper intermediate rider? You liked the Passport more, but how does it compare to the Singular, in a broad sense? Thanks a lot for the videos, I watched like 30 in the last week!
Which did you go with?
Avran,
Love your reviews. I have been all mountain freestyle riding for the the past several years and want to get faster and better at carving. I am probably advanced intermediate and currently have a 18/19 Bataleon Whatever and 20/21 Never Summer Protosynthesis. I don't really ride switch (maybe 10% mostly coming out of jumps) and try to jump off everything. These boards at speed (40+ mph) feel like they are going to fall apart. I am looking to move to a freeride board to go faster and harder but I still want to be able to hit the trees and have something a bit playful off natural features. I am 5'10 170lbs size 9. I have Burton Cartel Re:Flex bindings and Adidas Response 3MC boots. What board and size would you suggest?
56 to 59 is ideal for you. Take your pick anything on this list will do you well.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thanks. I took a look at your previous years' reviews and found a couple deals. Any thing stick out as the best from this list - 20/21 Bataleon Thunder 156, 21/22 Arbor Bryan Iguchi Pro Camber 156, 21/22 K2 Manifest Team 157, 21/22 Ride Berserker 156 and a couple wildcards 21/22 Burton Flight Attendant 156 or 21/22 Burton Skeleton Key 158 (it's so inexpensive compared to the others). Thoughts?
Thanks Angry love your work. I know I have a lot of board crossover and am hanging out for your full peace seeker review. A 155cm is available at a small discount here in NZ $900 NZ dollars I am much the same size as you except size 11.5 boot and am currently riding a 157 dancehaul, 160 super 8, 162 skeleton key and haven’t had the conditions to ride a custom x 158w or a Korua cafe racer 164 or a 163 deep thinker. If a get a third of the days you get I would be stoked and now the kids have left home I am focused on chasing waves and snow full time. At 54 I mainly try to carve as hard as I can and having the best equipment available to assist me is a priority and both my sons can use my boards as well as they advance. My long winded question please is do you think It would be worthwhile getting a peace seeker and perhaps selling any other boards? Thank you I greatly value your experience and really appreciate your thoughts and guidance.
You don't need it. You got more than enough.
@@AngrySnowboarder thanks so much for taking the time to set me straight. If you ever get a chance to come to NZ let me know via your channel I will help set you up and have got mates throughout the country you can stay with and they would love to see you ripping in NZ. I would love to repay you as you’ve just saved me $900 and being a half Viking/half kiwi Scorpio I never ever forget people who have helped me. Thanks again Angry admire your no bullshit to the point channel it is like gold as hard to find these days.🤙
The more you talk about the 23 bsod, the more my want for one.
But, constantly grabbing my 21 bsod for daily laps.
Still probably a little too much board for me, but definitely getting more comfortable on it.
Keep up the amazing work and effort for all your vids.
#sprayskiiers
I went with the Nitro Prime this year
Love your stuff! I've recently started snowboarding again after like 10 years off and im looking to buy a new snowboard. I've been looking at Amplid Dada a bit, it looks fun. Have you had any experience with it?
I have zero but know it's a volume shifted twin softish board.
How is the Singular edge hold for carving and getting the edge in on icy hard pack days, compared to the BSOD ? Also is the Singular more forgiving than the bsod if conditions are sketchy, eg, rutted rock hard off piste, or icy conditions, and probably better for the soft slucshy runs home late season ?
They're about the same in terms of flex so the forgiveness is comparable. The difference in edge hold is there if you keep them maintained. I think the Singular locks in better and has more power out of the tail but the edge to edge transmission is easier on the BSOD.
Dynamo all time favorite
Kinda surprised not to see an Arbor on this list, but cutting a list like this down to 5 is always hard.
This and the all mountain freestyle list is like 50 boards each at the start then it just dwindles from there.
A little off topic, but did you get a Singular Twin to review as well? I would like to hear your thoughts compared to the regular Singular.
Nope.
How does the Dynamo compare to the Telos Ranquet? I bought a Ranquet last year and it's awesome, but the Dynamo has me interested. They seem like they're similar-ish boards, so not sure if there would be too much overlap between the two
Stiffer, more damp, grips more on edge due to the MTX, has about the same pop.
Hey Avran, thanks for all the info you put out. I have watched quite a few of your videos. Your channel is a great resource. So last year I bought a Capita Mercury thinking I wanted a general all mountain board and wasn’t too happy with it. It allowed me to carve really well and it was fast, but I felt like the turn initiation was slow, just didn’t feel like the responsiveness was there like the Ejack Knife that I started out on. After three days I picked up an Ultra Mountain Twin and it felt way better, but it’s carving capability is pretty limited as you pointed out in your review. I don’t ride switch and don’t go in the park much. Pretty much just like to bomb, carve, pop off lips and features etc. I’m in the northeast so I’m riding hard/icy conditions a lot. Based on your reviews I’m looking at the Lib Tech Ejack Knife, K2 Manifest Team 22 or 23 Passport, Capita BSOD 23, Lib Tech Dynamo 22, Jones Aviator 2.0, or the K2 Alchemist 22. Which one or two do you think would best fit my needs?
Aviator and Dynamo.
@@AngrySnowboarder Right on, thanks for the help
@@AngrySnowboarder just picked up a 2022 Dynamo. I have Burton Malavita bindings from the board I was riding, will those work alright or would I be better off picking up one of the bindings you recommended for the dynamo?
How do you like it?
How does the passport compare to the instrument? Trying to decide between the two of them for this season. Thanks!
It's stiffer throughout.
What board would you recommend to complement a K2 Excavator and Weston Japow? I guess I have the powder, trees, and carving covered well so looking for something for a bit of freestyle on more mellow days. Don't ride park much, mainly want to fill the gap in riding switch, side hits, basic freestyle. I like more aggressive boards so not sure I want a full freestyle board. The shadowban looks interesting but am worried it'd be too soft for me. Thanks!
Algorythm
Will you be doing a 22/23 Best Volume Shifted boards? Would be greatly appreciated.
I'll be doing a lot of things.
@@AngrySnowboarder I would only imagine. 🤣
Hey Avran! - Awesome content on here - Coming back to boarding after a long break. Decided to give the K2 Passport with the Large K2 Formulas a shot on your recommendations.
I'm 5' 10" - 220 lbs - 9.5 boot - Intermediate Rider - I opted for the Passport in 157 to keep a bit more agile. But, should I have gone with the 159 or 160 instead, if I'm trying to buy a "forever" board, will I have problems in the Pow on the 157? - I'm trying to get my fat ass down to 200 lbs asap! Is it okay to run this board a little short? - Thanks man, keep it up!
Went opposite and got a 160, wish I would have gone 157. Same height weigh 190
@@tylerwarren7716 you dudes should trade
Avran, I was going through your videos and I’m having a hard time choosing between boards. I mainly ride East Coast hard pack ice but do trips out west and love carving it up through glades. Was wondering what board would be best with that tortional twist along with keeping that hard edge on ice. I’m coming off a 2015 Libtech skate banana that has treated me well in younger days in the park with all mountain aspects. Thanks!
Libtech Dynamo.
@@AngrySnowboarder thank you for the fast response, I’m coming off 156W, would you recommend the 159 for that more all mountain feel? That’s where I think I’m leaning towards. 200lbs size 10.5 boot
Definitely.
Hi, I have been riding for a very long time and looking for something new that works well on ice/harder snow (as that’s what I usually get here), carves well and is fun to ride in every type of speed (but I usually like to carve fast and pass the skiers ; )). I am looking at the Jones Flagship and the Ride Berzerker, both in 167 for the stability. Which one would you recommend to be able carve fast in all conditions and steeper or less steep slopes?
Flagship.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thanks! By the way, could the Rome Ravine Select be an option, or maybe any other recommendations? Thanks again.
Trying to decide between the amplid, k2 passport, and capita black any info you could share that would swing me to one of the boards?
Go watch the reviews when they drop.
How does the passport compare to the new manifest? Trying to decide between the two. I ride mostly east coast harder snow
Snappier, more lively, not as damp, and carves different.
Hey Avran, still checking all your vids. Bought the Rossi One LF 2019 based on one of your reviews. I found a nice deal on the K2 Passport, but would you please inform me how the Passport would relate to the One LF? Huge differences? Pros and cons? Thanks in advance
They sit in the same category to an extent. Big thing is the K2 is snappier, has a smoother edge control due to the sidecut, way more responsive when you drive it.
@@AngrySnowboarder Sadly, build quality of the Rossi is a bit poorly (topsheet is peeling). Would you say that the Passport a big up, or just finish the Rossi until end of life?
Your call.
What board would you recommend to compliment a standard uninc for a 2-board quiver?
You can go two ways with this full directional volume shift or full directional big boy stick.
The BSOD is sold out everywhere I look but I have been able to find the Super DOA in my size still at REI. Would you say I should just go for the super DOA?
I’m looking for something that charges hard, I would say my riding style falls under the speed demon category.
Btw thank you for all you your advice, I recently had my snowboard stolen and I’m looking to buy a whole new everything. I have faith in your videos helping steer me in the right direction because unlike other creators you seem to point out a products flaws and call it what it is which is much appreciated.
Btw i live in SoCal so there’s not many local mom n pops snowboard shops.. Capita’s local retailers consist of REI and Zumies over here..
I'd look towards a Mega Merc over the Super DOA.
Have you tested the K2 excavator? How would you compare it to the passport?
Little search would find that for you.
thinking of copping the passport as a big mountain rig for drops and powder and such. i’m 6’0 185 lbs would you recommend the 160 or 163. currently leaning towards the 163 for stability.
63
K2 goes hard
Hey Angry, I'm 5'11, weight 150lbs, and wear size 9.5 in US men. I'm thinking of getting the K2 Passport. What size would you recommend for me?
54
Was the Manifest Team softer or stiffer than the Passport? or are they about the same
About the same.
Remember, one board, everybody knows the rules. Avran ranks it high if it ain't got the flop & it's tasty.
Hello Angry. I’m on the east coast. Wondering which has better edge hold: BSOD or Passport? Thanks!
Whichever one you maintain the edges on.
Fair nuff
Looking at the Ravine select and trying to figure out sizing. Evo website has the 158 rated up to 230+lbs, is that right? Is thing volume shifted that much? I'm 5' 11", 225lbs, with size 11 boot. Currently on a superpig 154 and looking for something similar but a little better for charging. Superpig seems a little slow not sure if it's because of the width and length or both?? I'm a rad dad that likes to jump side hits and rollers and go fast. Really like the camber profile of the superpig and figured this board would ride similar.
It's not that it's that "volume shifted" it's those Flax Plates and the Flax Walls in there. They really do stiffen it up and provide that much dampening.
@@AngrySnowboarder Would the 158 work for me then at 225 or should I be looking at the 162?
@@christobey4198 Kind of depends. Lower angle pow, tight trees, small resort 58. More open pow, steeper lines, bigger resort 62.
@@AngrySnowboarder Cool that helps. I'm from the midwest so the 158 should work but I might just bump up to the 162 for my trips out west. I assume size 11 boot should not be an issue.
Looking for sth more aggersive than yes basic decade but not extremely demanding. Singular, flagship or bsod? What is a better choice?
Singular.
Dynamo 🔥❤️💪🏼
Hi, have you tried the Arbor Satori or heard any reports on it?
I've ridden it but not enough to write a review of it. It's an interesting ride and has some cool things going on with the flex to sidecut from the middle back.
Picked up a Passport from a local michigan outfit called Moosejaw....cant wait to get this thing moist
Moosejaw is owned by Wal-Mart.
@@AngrySnowboarder UGH..... ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
Hi man, i come from a dropout. Its been great but starts to feel a bit Floppy AT speed. I like speed, powder, small/Medium jumps no real Tricks, 67kg/148lbs. Since i felt the Pop on my girlfriends Party Platte i knew i wanted something similar.
I had decided on the manifest team based on your Review but can only find IT in 156, usually ride 153 or 151.
So finally,
Manifest team 156,
Passport 153,
Party platter 152
Or Black snowboard of death 156?
Your a saint if you read Till the end, love your work :)
Get the passport 53.
@@AngrySnowboarder how does the passport compare to last year's manifest team? Is it a big difference?
hey, mr. Angry, what about the Salomon Dancehaul? Is this model already passed or can it still keep up with this year's boards?
Why do you think it belongs in this category?
Well, apart from being volume-shifted, isn't it still an all mountain free ride board? I'm not sure about this, though. You're the specialist. That's why I follow your videos, because they give me insight :))
Have you watched the review on this thing, that should tell you all you need to know.
Any chance of a review on an Arbor A Frame?
Magic 8 ball says "only if they send one, outcome unlikely"
Is the Passport anything like the old Joydriver?, Or is it less of a death plank?
Definitely not like that, that would be the Alchemist this is more like the progression of the Manifest Team from last year.
Hey Avran, I'm looking for a new one board quiver for riding in the Austrian alps. Advanced Rider, coming from a Burton Flight Attendant. I ride pow whenever I can, trees, mach 10 on groomers, carving and small natural jumps. No Park, rarely switch. Stuck between the K2 Excavator, K2 Passport, BSOD, PYL Uninc, Korua TF and Flagship. What would be your pick?
Or Ravine Select maybe?
PYL UnInc, BSOd, or Flagship.
Which of the three would you consider the most nimble?
PYL.
Thanks man!
Granted this is a stacked category, how far off was the Bryan Iguchi pro from being on this list? Seems like its what would happen if an Ejack knife and a dynamo made a baby. It’s been awhile since it’s been reviewed but looks like it’s been the same for a couple years now
It wasn't even considered.
@@AngrySnowboarder thanks for the reply, is that because there are so many great decks in the category it’s impossible to take them all into consideration, it’s not all mountainy enough, or because it’s just not a standout performer in the category?
So many boards 👀🤑🤑
Buy two of each!
Thoughts on the 2023 Bataleon Goliath?
I love mine (2021 version)
Have you ridden a Neversummer Hammer? Your thoughts on it?
No
I just started snowboarding last season. Took a few lessons and can almost make it down the green train without catching an edge. I really want to get the Golden Orca. I'm wondering, with my skill level, if I would be better off with the regular Orca? Thanks in advance. Nate from Iowa
But you've been a fan for 2 years.
@@AngrySnowboarder Nothing gets by you my man. 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
TLDR: Got a advanced board and loved it. Pretty hard to get used to.
I rode 3+ seasons on an old issued rental board and could get down most blues and some freshly groomed black trails. I decided last season to get a black snowboard of death the 2021 version and really enjoyed it. I was worried I wouldn't like it, but even though it put me down a couple times for not respecting the board, I still enjoyed how much it had to teach me. It's STILL teaching me. It was a great experience growing into something I knew was too capable for my riding level. I started slow though and didn't take many risks so it took me most of the season to get used to it. Now pretty comfortable on tight blacks and some gentile double blacks.
@@spacespace777 you had me at black snowboard of death. I'll check it out.
Buy all the Orcas
I’m surprised the yes PYL uninc DCP didn’t made the cut since you closed your review by saying you were going to recommend it a lot. Any reasons ? Really interested in that board now i’m doubting… Thanks !
Because while it carries the PYL name if you look at it spec for spec it really is a different board. It doesn't carry the same shape.
Well This explained why the ordinary PYL isnt on the list, but you could have put the PYL UNINC DcP in it ?? Still, thanks for all the info you give us ! And I still think i’ll pull the trigger on the PYL UNINc DCP. I rewatched your review and really did like the board
Hey Angry. Keep killin it! Coming off of a Never Summer Snowtrooper… I bought it before I found your channel and agree with your opinion of the brand. Pretty dead. I’ve been riding 25-35 days a year mostly at copper and winter park. Want a do everything board. Looking at the Ride Shadowban and the Capita DOA. Any other suggestions?
You're solid with those choices.
@@AngrySnowboarder what a great answer 🤣😂🤣
And what are you contributing troglodyte?
Thanks Angry!!! Keep posting gold!
@@AngrySnowboarder nothing without knowing more about the rider (weight, boot size, what bindings, riding level etc) Better to be a honest and serious troglodyte than behaving like you are the one and only truth.
Could you do a top 5 wide snowboards?
I can do a lot of things.
@@AngrySnowboarder You already did it, and I got a Angry comment :D
Thoughts on current iteration of Rossignol XV?
The new one that just came out? Haven't ridden it but it's definitely not an all mountain freeride board.
Fair enough, bought one 4 years ago, love it
Hey Angry, quick question - at high speed on groomers, which has the best dampening and grip? BSOD or the Amplid? Is the Amplid Singular as good at dampening as their Centrifugal range? Currently on a YES 18/19 Optimistic and looking to switch it up a little.
They're pretty similar with dampening, the Amplid is maybe a hair more damp in the tips compared to the BSOD. As far as grip goes the Amplid is the better choice.
@@AngrySnowboarder awesome, thanks.
Hey man! Do you think the ravine select would be a good board for me? I’ve done 1 season, not great at jumps etc but good at riding and progressing at carving. I really enjoy tail press butters. I’m 6’4 looking at the 162
No.
@@AngrySnowboarder oh okay. I was pretty much sold on this. Why is this? Too stiff? I got really tired legs last season from rough terrain and really enjoyed going high speeds but felt a bit unstable on the rental I had
Because your ability is so far below it and you’re not going to get what you need out of it.
@@AngrySnowboarder okay thanks. Maybe the Salomon super 8 is a better fit then. I’ll keep looking
Or just the regular ravine
What do you think about Jones Stratos?
That I have a review of it.
Was yes hybrid close making it on the list or nah?
Nope!
DYNAMOOOO
What are your thoughts between this years bsod and the jones flagship (not the ultra, way too much sand 💰)? I am currently deciding between them, im planning on laying trenches, tight trees, ice coast edging, and gonna attempt tuckermans ravine this April/may! Thanks angry you da man
Current Flagship is noticeably softer especially under foot and in the nose. So in choppy terrain you really feel it, whereas the BSOD is more damp underfoot. Since you're on the east and dealing with Tight Trees and that weird freeze thaw cycle I'd almost say the Rome Ravine Select would be better for what you want.
@@AngrySnowboarder are you referring to 2022 flagship review or the 2023 that just dropped? Thanks for the reply checking out rome ravine rn
@@12345b67 I always talk current year.
@@AngrySnowboarder Thanks youre the goat 🐐. do you have a affiliate link for the rome ravine select so you can get your cut 💰? Lastly will the rome ravine hold an edge better than the flagship/bsod for when im attempting the 50 degree ravine ?
@@12345b67 All links are in the description. Technique and maintenance are going to help you more than anything. Keep those edges sharp and stay light on your feet.
How's the Dynamo compare to the Jones Mountain Twin?
More freeride oriented, damper, rides on edge different.
@@AngrySnowboarder will they both still rip carves?
I'd rather carve on the Dynamo if I had to choose one.
How much will I regret getting the antidote over the passport.
Not much
No Koruas??? Or do those kinda sit in their own category?
There just isn't anything from them that sits in this category.
@@AngrySnowboarder wouldn’t the Tranny Finder fit in here? Just thinking that is has a similar camber profile to the Rome Ravine and is a stiff board. Idk. I test rode a TF and didn’t like it. But I’m a bit of a kook. 🙄
@@chooseboost Closer to all mountain freestyle over freeride. Zero 3d shaping in the tip, sidecut is different, doesn't have the versatility of the Ravine.

We hit 93 yesterday but then it sank down to 56 at night. Unfortunately I think this heat is sticking for the month and going to put us into an Indian Summer.

Passport vs Alchemist ?
Yes.
If you could only have one board, you only get to ride 7 days a year and you like carving groomers and hitting pow when possible do you pick the K2 passport or the K2 excavator?
Either, but I think you'd probably like the Excavator more.
@@AngrySnowboarder thank you!
Is the new Kazu even close to being an honorable mention to the honorable mentions?
This category is so vast just know it's in the Top 50.
@@AngrySnowboarder close enough for me, thanks!!
K2 Alchemist 😢
God dam i need the k2 passport sooooo bad all the way baby 163
FIRST GODDAMNIT
NUMBER 1!!!!
@@AngrySnowboarder IF UR NOT FIRST UR LAST
NO U
To see a Lib & Capita unter the Top5 shows how serious this is. Both overrated & overpriced boards
What should've been on the list then?
@@ThePeonsChamp for sure not any board produced at SWS/Dubai = Nidecker, Jones, Bataleon, Lobster, Rome etc. Quality low. Capita has a nice idea with their factory but to glue the topsheet after pressing is ridiculous. K2 Antidote, Burton Flight Attendant, Nitro Pantera, Never Summer Hammer
Tell me you don’t know anything about snowboards without telling me you don’t know anything about snowboards!
enjoy your fromunta muscle cheese
lol. I've been riding for over 25 years, had lots of different boards throughout the years from many different manufactures. I have to say, the '21 BSOD is the best board I have ever ridden hands down. How's that for overrated?
