Franco Sharkbite 2 150 Snowboard Review 2018-2019- Rated Radical!

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.
