Other Thoughts: This is my first board i own and it's my first season of riding. I can just say that thanks to the engineering enclosed in that board I am riding now black diamond runs and double black diamond runs !! 1st season of riding !! This board with Cartels EST and ION boots are AWESOME !! Jumps, powder, speed, carve .. you can do them all .. this board will do half of your job .. !! Don't worry about scratches .. I have them a lot after the season .. better go out and check your car for the scratches :) lol .. One more think to add .. I found this board extremely forgiving .. you can feel that something is wrong and you have tons of time to correct a mistake before you kiss the snow .. :)
