Amazing how much better it feels than the 2022 whatever
I have a 2022 whatever and while it wasn’t a bad board, the difference riding this is night and day for me. I especially love how I can just aim at moguls and rough snow and it can just get over or through them. From the limited experience I have had with powder it floats well through moderate pow. It turns incredibly precisely and I always feel confident I will be able to make the turns I set out too. It’s been awesome for tree runs and always feels under my control.
My only complaint is that while the base graphic this year (2024) is pretty awesome, the top is almost entirely glossy black which is boring and also prone to scratches.
I have a size 10 foot, am 174cm/5’8.5”, 82kg/182lbs and I find the 158W is perfect for me.
