Proper turn earner

Have had some good time and times on it now here in the kootenays, up down, all around, through the good the bad and the ugly it has been rock solid. A great tech climber with all that banked country pleasure and versatility when its time to shine or just get down and out in one piece.

Unbeatable steep and deep mountain sheep

This is my new GOAT. My first splitboard was the Billy Goat but it delaminated. I got that board warrantied but always wish I kept the the board because the art was so good. The 159 is short for me but nicely aggressive and super fun on high speed lines!

Solid steering

This thing got me so high. Been in stuff so deep adults had tears in the back of throats thinking about the trench to get home. No thing on this machine.

Ohoy

Please make a 165W

Please GNU, give rise to 165W Banked Slalom splitboards***** After riding the solid, all my other boards sucks!

The new progressive Magne-traction makes this board a real rocket on hard ice and wind effected pow . it is very light Splitboard and the nose keeps you floating in deep snow conditions???? . Congrats Cannon & Temple , awsm board ????????????⚡️
