Franco Half Moon 150? Snowboard Review 2018-2019

Description

TESTER: Levi Johnson

BOARD: Franco Half Moon 150?

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  5

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: How responsive it was and also had great pop.

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: If I had to pick something… I guess I wish it would have locked into big hard turns better. That being said it really wasn’t bad, and I don’t think that is the purpose of this board anyway.

OVERALL COMMENTS: I thought this was a great all mountain freeride board that didn’t necessarily excel at any particular aspect, and just did everything pretty well. It’s a board built to get creative with the whole mountain, and even fallow your buddies for a park lap if you wanted.

RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 7:  6

SHAPE COMMENT: FUN TO LOOK AT

ADDITIONAL SHAPE COMMENTS: 

RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 7:   OK

FLEX COMMENT:  JUST RIGHT

ADDITIONAL FLEX COMMENT:  It had a stiff torsional flex and felt soft nose to tail, but generates a surprising amount of pop.

RATE STABILITY THROUGH TURNS FROM 1 TO 7:   5

STABILITY COMMENT: PRETTY GOOD

ADDITIONAL STABILITY COMMENTS:

RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 7:  6

COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:

ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:  Great pop and surprising with the soft flex.

RATE FLOAT IN POW FROM 1 TO 7:    5

COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: OK

ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: This wasn’t necessarily a powder board, but for a freeride board it had great float.

RATE THE GRAPHICS FROM 1 TO 7:  6

GRAPHICS COMMENT: I’M FEELING IT
