Product Year:

Summary:
It is a great all around board that I can use for anything I want from rails to freeriding. It doesn't come close to my Burton 7 but considering how I got it I'm not at all unhappy with this board. I won it in a competition at Kelly Canyon Rigby, ID

Strengths:
Very sturdy and very flexible at the same time. Very easy to turn. Very easy to grind and land on. All around good board.

Weaknesses:
Have not found any yet, just one problem the edges have a few gaps in them but haven't come loose yet.

Similar Products Used:
A bond board and a sims.

Riding Style:

Product Year:
2002

Summary:
I bought the 163 after my K2 trucker de-laminated. I spent a day at Hoodoo and a day at Bachelor. Conditions were not ideal conditions but it was better than going to work. I should mention that I am 6'2" and close to 300 lbs. you cannot imagine the abuse my board takes and asks for more!

Strengths:
Carved with ease. Great looking deck.

Weaknesses:
Havent been on it enough to find a weakness

Reviewed by: ToothlessWithTatoos ,  Intermediate , from Upstate, NY

Price Paid:  $300.00 at Derby City Outfitter

Favorite place to ride:
Holiday Valley

Riding Style:
Groomed/Slalom

Product Year:
2002

Summary:
My first board: my previous experiences have been on rental boards.

Sturdy board, good flex characteristics. Holds an edge well, but is still easy to initiate turns.

Strengths:
Sturdy construction.
Sintered base.
Good flex without being sloppy.
Edges hold on hard-pack & ice.
Initiates turns easy.

Weaknesses:
Fit & finish is not the highest quality I've seen (also not the worst). Some of the contruction seams have small gaps, or material layers not trimmed evenly on edges. Doesn't seem to affect function of the board; maybe I'm just a perfectionist.

Similar Products Used:
Salomon & Rosignol rentals.
