Description
TESTER: Knut Carter
BOARD: Franco Sharkbite 2 150
OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM 1 TO 10: Radical (10)
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: I had an epic review done and lost connection and the review. Hopefully this one is as good. It’s sol much fun and a Hard charging powerful board.
WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: The tail seemed a little hard to land on. I jumped of a big mogul and flew over 4 more. I landed then went right in to a wheelie for what seemed like 100 feet. The points on the tail made it so I could turn around a tree while the nose was in the air. Then I popped over another mogul and kept rallying. The least favorite thing was epic.
OVERALL COMMENTS: This board has a soul. I had been charging hard for 3 days straight. This was the last board I rode. It was 4 o clock. Snow was coming down. This board gave me so much energy. I flew through tight trees and ripped big turns on open runs better than ever. I felt solid and in control when I probably shouldn’t have been. I wish the lifts would’ve kept going.
RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 7: RADICAL
SHAPE COMMENT: AT THING OF BEAUTY
ADDITIONAL SHAPE COMMENTS: Rad looking shape that cuts though anything.The deep side cut with a wide nose and tail felt great.
RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 7: RADICAL
FLEX COMMENT: JUST RIGHT
ADDITIONAL FLEX COMMENT: It felt like it flexed perfectly with the mountain. When going over bumps it flexed over with no recoil so your next turn was flawless.
RATE STABILITY THROUGH TURNS: RADICAL
STABILITY COMMENT: ROCK SOLID- AS GOOD AS IT GETS
ADDITIONAL STABILITY COMMENTS: I felt secure going fast on anything. It felt like the shape kept me locked to the mountain. I could jump through trees and land in a turn with ease and a loot of control.
RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 7: RADICAL
COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:
ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS: It felt like pop came from the nose to the middle of feet. Which gave me a lot of pop and more control while jumping. It had so much control that the playfulness felt second nature.
RATE FLOAT IN POW FROM 1 TO 7: RADICAL
COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: EFFORTLESSLY FLOATY
ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: This thing floated on hard pack. Powder was a dream.
RATE THE GRAPHICS FROM 1 TO 7: RADICAL
GRAPHICS COMMENT: AESTHETIC AND INSPIRING
ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS COMMENTS: Just 2 colors on top that caught everyone’s eye. It was a hard board to get a hold of.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY: I loved it. I’ve never felt so connected to a board. I plan on riding one again.
