Description It all began in 1982 when Shaun Palmer started snowboarding, and he still rules the sport today. For Shaun, it's about loving snowboarding and it's about winning. That's why he rides a Carbon Circle.

Summary: I was previously ridng a Burton, and tried a Palmer Honeycomb and was very impressed. Didn;t like the plain design of the honeycomb so bought the carbon circle and never looked back, it's increddible, fast on and off piste, i love it, it gives such a buzz. I'll never go back to another manufacturer!
Strengths: Everything
Weaknesses: Base graphics
Similar Products Used: Nothing that compares to this!
Summary: This board has so many strengths. It is super fast when you need it and easy to control in the pipe. I love riding this board and can't wait to get back on it.

Summary: If you had to spend the rest of your life riding one board, this would be it. It's fast, snappy, jumps great, is incredibly responsive and built very strong. You only need to think about turning and its there. If you like to go hard out full noise all day, you'll love this...just watch out for ski patrol. I've ridden this board over 40 days now and it still feels as fresh as new. Its taken plenty of dings, but I've had 3 palmer boards and they are by far the toughest boards I've experienced. All the Shaun Palmer Hype aside, this board is truly wicked.
Strengths: This is a perfect all around board for riders who want to cram a bit of everything into their day on the hill, going as fast as possible - awesome stability, responsiveness and snapiness
Weaknesses: Maybe the graphics aren't for everyone.... condusive to getting your pass pulled for speeding.
