Description

TESTER: Curtiss Feltner

BOARD: Neversummer Swift 152

TEST YEAR:   2019 SHAPERSUMMIT SNOWBOARD REVIEWS

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  7

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: It’s all around capabilities while still floating well in pow

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: The NS camber profile can sometimes make the board feel a little too loose for my preference.

OVERALL COMMENTS: Good solid ripper of a board! Floats excellent in pow (and hot pow!) rails carves and yet stays playful because of the reverse between the feet. At the same time it can feel a bit loose when that reverse lifts nose or tail when you don’t want it to…. but all around stoked on it, I would definitely recommend it.
