Franco Mini half moon 148 Snowboard Review 2018-2019

TESTER: Steph Nitsch

BOARD: Franco Mini half moon 148

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  4

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Super fast edge to edge

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: There was a lot of chatter and I got bucked around anytime I’d take this off a perfectly groomed run.

OVERALL COMMENTS: Responsive, easy to turn and buttery carves gave me a lot of hope for this board. But there was very little forgiveness in semi-soft or semi-firm conditions, taking me for an abrupt and rigid ride. It felt solid on landings but I couldn’t generate enough speed to get enough airtime.
