Cardiff Powgoda 162 Snowboard Review 2018-2019

Description

TESTER: Rob Kingwill

BOARD: Cardiff Powgoda 162

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  6

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: This board was beautiful, fun and surfy!

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: The reverse camber bump under the front foot made it really grindy.

OVERALL COMMENTS: I really liked ripping around on the PowGoda- it has good float, smooth in and out of turns and feels really solid and nice underfoot. I would say it was a little too wide for my size 9 foot, and that the early rise kicks up a little too soon, and that maybe the sidecut could be moved forward a touch to help it initiate turns.
