I've only been snow-boarding for a little more than a year now, and I got this board in October 2001, so I've been riding it for one season. I am very much impressed with it's performance. It is quite narrow, rather stiff, and fast as hell. At speed, it is totally stable, and it never (well, almost never) catches an edge. I feel extremely secure on the board. It turns very well at speed and it carves excellently for a free-ride board. If you are riding in very heavy snow and crud, the board appreciates an aggressive style, but will get you down fine even if you just drift through your turns slowly. On the down side, the board is rather hard to turn at very low speed, and it is quite heavy. I don't think it is very suitable for more extreme free-style tricks. I'm riding the board with a Flow FL11FR binding and Flow boots, and I am very happy with this combination. I'm only giving it a 9 because I want to have some room for better marks if I ever try a Donek ;-)
