Pallas Zeitgeist 154? Snowboard Review 2018-2019

Description

TESTER: Alli Noland

BOARD: Pallas Zeitgeist 154?

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  5

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: that nose!

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: def hard to get from edge to edge, slow on flats

OVERALL COMMENTS: Surf magic. Would be a dedicated pow board. They said once you got it on edge, it connects, which I got a tiny taste of, but it’s hard to get over the mental hurdle of laying down such a big nose on a groomer. And the groomers sucked by the time I got out there.

RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 7:  6

SHAPE COMMENT: FUN TO LOOK AT

ADDITIONAL SHAPE COMMENTS:  Fat Nose Mama, also liked the little heart cutout in the tail and they said I’d never be able to break it, but it would make me think twice at retail

RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 7:   OK

FLEX COMMENT:  JUST RIGHT

ADDITIONAL FLEX COMMENT:  Maybe a bit stiff, but I didn’t really get to test it in it’s natural environment

RATE STABILITY THROUGH TURNS FROM 1 TO 7:   5

STABILITY COMMENT: PRETTY GOOD

ADDITIONAL STABILITY COMMENTS: There’s a moment of uncertainty when changing edges on hardpack.

RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 7:  5

COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:

ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:  seemed fun, but I was distracted by the giant nose

RATE FLOAT IN POW FROM 1 TO 7:    6

COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: EFFORTLESSLY FLOATY

ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: floatster

RATE THE GRAPHICS FROM 1 TO 7:  5

GRAPHICS COMMENT: OK

ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS COMMENTS: not in love with graphics, but that’s SO subjective

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY: Again, keep up the good work, Ladies!
