Absolutely phenomenal board, thumbs up! I thought that this would be a purely powder board, but boy was I mistaken. The board rips in any conditions, I even took it to the pipe and got more air than on my Nitro Shadow 159! I didn't even want to swithch boards for the pipe after that. The only drawback is that you can't really ride this board switch (especially in the halfpipe) because of its swallow tail design. But 540's or even 900's are possibile in the pipe and I will prove it once I can nail a 9 on a regular board. I've had no more than 5 days on this board so I can't really rate its durability yet (especially since I've broken all the boards that I've had in the past except Burton), but from its looks I am sure it would hold up. I even had a chance to take it to "powder" (5-7 inches) this week and it is absolutely amazing. Then the day after we had a thaw and it handed wet powder absolutely beautifully. Even though it's pricey, absolutely worth every penny. I am a pretty demanding rider and if I give a board a 10, it is probably a 20. You can check my other reviews on 2000 Palmer HoneyComb 155 (1), 2001 Palmer HoneyComb 157 (1) and 2000/2001 Nitro Shadow 159 (5).
