What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I downsized on the Back/Slash and it still felt planted. Setback camber holds a clean edge on early morning groomers, and the long nose pops up in soft snow without effort. It is quick edge to edge in trees, stable enough to open it up, and has plenty of tail to finish turns with power. Shorter length, zero compromise."Who It’s ForAdvanced All Mountain and Freeride Riders:For directional riders who want a nimble board that grips hardpack, slashes powder, and thrives in trees. Great for anyone ready to downsize without giving up stability or confidence at speed. What It’s ForCarving Groomers and Surfing Powder:Built to carve trenches on corduroy, charge through afternoon chop, and float storm days. The setback camber powers clean arcs while the long rockered nose keeps the front light and planing. Why We Like ItVolume Shifted Agility with Real Stability:Poplar and paulownia with carbon stringers keep the ride lively and strong. Polyurethane sidewalls smooth out chatter, and the graphite sintered base holds speed in all conditions. It turns fast, tracks straight, and paddles up to the surface in deeper snow.
