Hi,

I’m currently looking for a new board. i’ve been riding the fanatic unlimited for a few years now.
I’m quite happy about the performances of this board, in regular that is. since i am a snowboard teacher i tend to ride in switch for at least 45% of the time. the fanatic unlimited is a directional board unfortunately, this makes it not ideal for continuously riding in switch. the board does have a great handling, carved turns are very easy on it.

I like doing tricks all over the place, in the powder, park and on the slopes. so i need a board that pleases me on every terrain. also i need to be able to do carved turns with little effort, without the board breaking out.

so now i need to buy a new board, i’ve been looking at the K2 slayblade and the amplid declaration.
But these are both directional.

any one know a good twin tip board that still handles great on the slopes and is fun to play with too?

thx in advance for the advise!!

grtz wouter

Honestly you won’t notice much difference between regular and switch on either of those boards, the directionality id absolutly minimal, and they are two boards which are perfect for what you want to do.
