This board really helped me taking up snowboarding. It’s a very easy board to control and I learned to snowboard on this in a day.

My second piste of the day I started snowboarding I went off a red piste and had no problem with it. Felt really forgiving of any mistake I made against technique which I lacked being a beginner.
