Hard Charging Freeride board
Hey Lester,
The words “Hard charging freeride” kinda depend on what you personally mean by that.
To me, hard charging boards are not necessarily the ones that float the easiest.
They are the boards that carve the best, hold a mean edge, land strong in big drops/jumps and just generally feel more aggressive in turns (They are also the kind of board that 80% of all snowboarders would probably hate if they demoed one).
To achieve this, most pro free-riders, big mountain riders etc. will ride a board that is quite stiff and usually pure camber.
When I think of what I see pro big mountain riders using, the first board that comes to mind is a Burton Custom X. Whether that’s a good match for you, that’s for you to decide.
Also anything from the Arbor Roots Collection of boards will be good. And will range from easy and floaty to very aggressive. All are aimed towards free-riding.
If ya don’t like it, blame Skip for not bein convincing enough!!!!!
Yeah Skip didn’t have a commercial either I was doomed from the get go haha
