TESTER: Jeremy Jensen

BOARD: Cardiff Powgoda 162

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  5

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Looked nice on the shelf.

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: It was bit big for some of the tighter zones we rode.

OVERALL COMMENTS: Nice aesthetic on the shape and graphic choice. Looked great on the rack and I knew it should be under my feet. Really wanted to ride some proper pow on it but didn’t really get the chance.. only some chop in Rock springs. Was a little sluggish on the groomers compared to the shorter more playful boards I’d been riding
