Gentemstick GT 168 Snowboard Review 2018-2019

TESTER: Mark Winkelaar

BOARD: Gentemstick GT 168

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  5

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: First non camber board ever under biased feet and edge control was on point. Tune was premium.

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Not much at all. I’d need one day figuring it out to call it my own.

OVERALL COMMENTS: Super maneuverable. I like these shapes. Longer thin pencils are not the focus in the current trend, but this should be in the quiver of every rider. Smooth ride and still easy to switch directions. Trees and soft bumps we’re no prob, steeps and groom we’re rad. Also the color and finish was sick. Purple Rain.

RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 7:  RADICAL

SHAPE COMMENT: AT THING OF BEAUTY

ADDITIONAL SHAPE COMMENTS:  Love the tail shape. No money bumps or nonsense, just perfect design.

RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 7:   6

FLEX COMMENT:  JUST RIGHT

ADDITIONAL FLEX COMMENT:  Didn’t have to think about it. Always a great sign.

GRAPHICS COMMENT: AESTHETIC AND INSPIRING

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY: This is one I would wanna quiver.
