FREESTYLE / ALL MOUNTAIN - TWIN
Where on the mountain this snowboard is especially tuned to excel.
Beginner level snowboards are fun and approachable for all riders while an advanced snowboard is tuned for a particularly aggressive / athletic style of snowboarding.
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.

Recently purchased the T. Rice Pro blunt nose, 155 version. I'm, 5'7' 175 and it simply rips. While my first day wasn't epic, crusty morning, sloppy slush afternoon, it handled with ease. I'm not a big park rider (old dude, Rad Dad) it made me feel like I could boost jumps after deep carves. Yep. Graphics sick. I'm a LibTech fan. Buy it, rip it, never question it.
One board that will get you through anything. On groomers you're turnig on rails and always at the front of the pack! No chatter at any speed. In POW it shines, no need to lean back whatsoever. This board helps to elevate your game since theres never any feeling a reason to hold back. Not quite as playful as a banana magic but if you're pushing the limits this board will always deliver without a lot of added effort.
Like the reviews say, this is your all mountain board. It can do it all in any condition. Has the right amount of stiffness but has pop that can hang with the best. The magne-traction is a must for that extra stability and braking power. Once you ride a Mervin Family board, you can't switch it up.
Went into the local ski/board shop recently. Told the guy I wanted the best he had. Set me up with this deck (157W), Union Strata bindings and Ride Deadbolt boots. It’s been a while since I’ve gone riding, but this thing is next level from what I had. Looking forward to playing hookie more often while the season is still here.
Just got the 157 blunt and really happy with the purchase. Spent the week in Mammoth CA, and could ride this all over the mountain (bowls, all terrain, and park) in different conditions powder/groomed/thin cover. Was definitely a step-up from last board. Normally, an East coast rider so, will be testing out in Vermont conditions in Jan/Feb. Given its ability to handle everything over last week, I trust it'll be awesome everywhere.
