TEST YEAR: 2019 SHAPERSUMMIT SNOWBOARD REVIEWS
OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM 1 TO 7: 7
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Carves a sick turn on groomers and floats pow.
WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: The width makes for slightly slower edge transfers.
OVERALL COMMENTS: For being a floaty pow board the backslash is incredibly stable on hardpack. I had to work a little bit to maneuver it in tight sections because of the width, I would be curious to try a slightly narrower version.
