The Truth is finnaly here. Now we don’t need to think and surf all over the web which snowboard is best for you. TWS did all the work instead of us. Check below which snowboard will you have this year under your feet…
The test starts with each model of snowboard in three different sizes sent to the snowy slopes of Breckenridge, Colorado in mid-April for the weeklong test. TWS hired 23 expert testers to ride Breckenridge’s Park Lane park and the 2,400 vertical feet down Peak 8 testing each board on every type of feature and terrain available. The park boards are scored according to criteria including ollies/nollies, rail stability, buttering, flex, turning, and spinability—all-mountain is also scored in jumping and spinning, with an additional focus on high-speed stability and turning, and less focus on rails.
