Manufacturers description
The Powder Boards, with full reverse sidecut and Continuous Curve Rocker, offer a powder skiing experience unmatched and unattainable by a ski with traditional sidecut. Please read the Fatter Underfoot Technology blog for more info on why this ski design is so exceptional.
Last season, for the first time in the last five years, the Powderboard design has seen some major changes and improvements; improvements that will go unchanged in 2013. In our attempt to allow all people, no matter their shape and size, the incredible experience that these skis allow we are now offering new sizes; 170 cm, 180cm, 190 cm, and 200 cm. We’ve added a fatter overall dimension, but a more notable change comes in the form of a larger radius reverse sidecut, with a fatter tip and tail dimension in relation to the underfoot dimension. What we accomplished with these changes was a more stable ski on hard snow and better edge hold and energy distribution when traversing. All while keeping the amazing slarving and powder performance characteristics that made original design so popular

Strengths:
Float, breaking train, stable as nothing at speed, turns without effort any radius turn.
Weaknesses:
Anything under 15cm of soft snow renders them barely skiable...not great skinning on hardpack but why would you.
