OMG So beautiful. Such an amazing piece of art. I can’t wait to ride it this winter.
Description
ALL MOUNTAIN - DIRECTIONAL
Natural Selection winning power predator in both directions. Travis took his Orca learnings and merged them with his elite high performance snowboard world freestyle tour dreams to come up with this supreme Orca freestyle evolution. The long floaty Orca nose loves pow. A directional C2 contour rips resort, trenches hardpack carves and blasts off mountainous side hits. A brand new long floaty switch friendly power kink tail rides short powerful and poppy on hardpack but floats like a dream through switch freestyle takeoffs and landings. The beloved Orca merges with magical T. Rice Pro and manifests a golden power beast.

Flex
How easily does this snowboard bend under pressure? A soft flex is great for fun maneuverability while a stiff flex is better for aggressive high speed hill bombing.

Slays Powder Like Nothing Else Can
I have ridden this board on only 3 occasions since buying it new this year.
2 resort boot top days & one heli day about boot top. Holy ..ck this board is amazing. Effortless to keep hips and COM on top and be smooth or blast the tail in turns. And… so fast:)

This board is Jut feels right
This will be my 3rd season on the Golden Orca. I actually purchased the same board but this year’s version. It surfs deep snow. Holds an edge on the ice. I’ve rode this board in the worst conditions and the best and it is just a beast. Gliding through powder or maneuvering through sketchy glades. It is a true all mountain. I talked to my cousin And to purchase and when he loves it just the same. Get you won’t be disappointed.

Best board out there
This is my second golden orca board I bought this one in a 153 and it’s unreal, if you want something to shred groomers or have icy conditions it handles them amazingly has great flex and pop and handles unreal in powder and trees, highly recommend this board to anyone!
