Yes PYI 159 SNOWBOARD REVIEW 2016

Description

TESTER: Josh Reid

BOARD: Yes PYI 159

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 10:  5

OVERALL COMMENTS: This board was fun up to a certain speed, and then it felt unstable. Solid for an all-arounder, but there were at least three that I preferred above this for responsiveness and stability through a turn.

RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 5:     4

SHAPE COMMENT: I was drawn to the shape–looked like a good all-mountain board.

RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 5:     3

FLEX COMMENT: Too soft for me, particularly in the shovel. At 50 to 60 mph on Sundance, the board started to feel unstable. It didn’t feel like I could lay into a turn at speed without it wobbling.

RATE STABILITY THROUGH TURNS:    2

STABILITY THROUGH TURNS: See above. I felt unsure of this board over 45 or 50 mph when pressing hard on a turn felt wobbly.

RATE THE GRAPHICS FROM 1 TO 5:    4

GRAPHICS COMMENT:

RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 5:    3

COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS: A bit dull from turn to turn.

RATE FLOAT IN POW IF AVAILABLE FROM 1 TO 5:   

COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: na
