Signal Park Rocker - 2011

Quick
stats: Recommended for park riding.

The softest board on the planet is back. There’s no denying that Dave Lee and his fellow Signalers have created a board that appeals to a very specific kind of snowboarder. When I rode the Park Rocker last year I tried to tighten my binding ratchets, leant over the nose slightly and the board folded up, I ended-up flat o my face… If your riding is confined to urban or park jibs and rails then you might dig the Park Rocker. Don’t bother with this snowboard if you intend to take your snowboard to an actual mountain.

Manufacturer's Description:

Signal’s own Three-Stage Park Rocker’s unique design offers the latest technology for more fluid control under a variety of shred circumstances, making even the most technical tricks feel effortlessly smooth.

You want this board! Stage One is continuous contact. This creates a level board through the bindings. It allows you to hold an edge without catching one. Stage One acts as a small board when you stand flat over this section. Stage Two rolls up ten degrees into Stage Three, the ‘flat spot’. Stage Two creates a pivot point when transferring from the level— or flat—area between the bindings and the ‘flat spot’ of Stage Three. Stage Two also acts as a secondary contact point when you are carving. These stages are engineered to give you more confidence when hitting rails and boxes. You will sit on presses like never before!

The Park Rocker is built with a “Standard Profile” Aspen core. This profile is thicker between the feet and tapers out as it reaches the nose and tail. There is no need for extra tapering as the nose and tail are already in the air because of the Rocker that starts at your feet. The Park Rocker also has an Exel PMU 4060 urethane top, a Durasurf sintered base and biaxial glass. Rock on!

“Don’t bother with this snowboard if you intend to take your snowboard to an actual mountain.” Say what? I have this board and it rips everything all day. The curled up tips make it super floaty in powder and the base is slick for building speed quick for your favorite jumps. Speaking of that base it’s uber-tough and can take a beating. Want to jib up that concrete barrier? No problem. Bonk spin off a steel pole? Fly right at it. Rip down some high velocity groomers at break-neck pace? Well, sort of… The only fault I have for this board is it is very unstable when you get moving fast on the pack.

It took a bit to get used to the ludicrous flex on this board, but now I’m loving every second. YOU WANT THIS BOARD!

Bought the board for powder, fun and park, but I agree with Casey :-) It rips anything all day! Might be a little nervous on high speed but hey not to hard to handle. If you can’t taje this board to an mountain you should consider skiing :-)

I agree with you guys. I bought the board last season and I have never had such a fun board.

And yeah at high speed it gets a little hairy….

All around awesome board though.
