Stepchild Harlequin - 2010

Quick
stats: Recommended for park riding.

A soft flex, narrow waist and large sidecut radius make the Harlequin a super forgiving and cruisy ride, perfect for beginner and intermediate female riders.

Manufacturer's Description:

As the sun rise’s over the seashore her strapping white stallion gallops towards her, flexing softly. She is aroused by his stature and she shivers at the notion that he is also a twin! The Harlequin is a great entry-level womens’ board. The twin shape and soft flex of this board makes it quite easy to ride and is a great cruising board. The base is screened and extruded. The fiberglass is biaxial and there are 10 inserts per foot. Simply put, this is just a toned down version of the Moustache Rider.

SB-RV Review

Stepchild are hearing us girls loud and clear producing boards perfect for ladies. The Stepchild Harlequin is narrow for our petite feet (hold the kitchen sink jokes boys!), has a soft flex and is light and easy to pop. The Harlequin’s mild sidecut and narrow waist gives great edge-to-edge response and effortless turn initiation, without being twitchy and unstable at speed.

As much as us girls protest, the enchanting graphics are a plus, I really liked them.. they’re a bit like the Bataleon Violenza’s graphics.

In summary, the Stepchild Harlequin isn’t designed for aggressive female riders, it’s much more suited to lighter framed ladies with size 6-7 feet (US) or smaller who want a fun board to cruise around the whole mountain on and start riding all the features in the park, from kickers and the pipe to rails and jibs
