![]() Speed: I should have gotten a larger size, as this board felt slow to me.I was confident at high speeds such that I wouldn't blow out or get thrown off, due to the damp ride that the board provides. ![]() Stability: This board is smooth and stable at high speeds and rough terrain.This makes the board feel twin even though the nose is so much longer than the tail. Switch riding: Switch is relatively easy, as inside the contact points, the board is twin.Weight: Compared to other boards I've ridden, it is relatively light and I wasn't fatigued from jumping it all day.I believe this to be because of the high-sintered 4000 ptex base that this deck has. The base was strong, however, as there were not any gouges or deep scratches on the base, and I know I hit a mean sick or two while in the woods. At the end of the first day, it seemed that I had a couple of chips from bumping into fellow riders. Durability: With Ride’s topless topsheet, it chips easily around the edges of the board.It’s still an overall fun board for getting weird and wacky on rails and boxes. The board boasts mainly a flat profile, and lacks insane pop, so any pop I get comes from my legs, not the board. The board is ok on jumps it gets me through smaller jumps and starts to feel limited on medium jumps. That long nose is ideal for presses and butters I can pop 360s with relative ease when I commit to them. Park: As for the park, it performs well here.It feels like I am surfing as I slash around. I have no issues with float, as that nose is so big it just keeps me up and out of the snow. Powder: I was able to touch a little bit of fresh pow, around six inches or so.The Warpig loves those wide, arcing turns and always seems to hold up. Groomers: This board is fantastic on groomers, as I am able to find a few wide trails that allow me to carve from one side to the next.That thinner side wall really lets me lay the board over and push that back leg in to hold tight. Edge hold: I don’t notice any issue with edge hold, as the board seems to lock in due to Ride’s Slimwall.
