Summary:
A great board for intermediates looking to advance. Good ride for a light rider (I am 100 lbs). If you weigh a bit more or ride with lots of power check out the Salomon 450 and 550. This is the best board I have ridden yet.

Strengths:
Flexy where it needs to be, stiff enough in the tail to really launch you into and out of turns. This board really takes your for a ride. The edge changes are smooth and grip well, it dampens out crud, rails hardpack and floats effortlessly in the powder.

Weaknesses:
It is a little heavy. It would be cool if they put int he 4x2 binding pattern like the ivy.
