Read the review on the Westmark recently.  It mentions that the Westmark “...does get bullied by soft summer corn snow…”.  Does this mean that in powder-like spring conditions the board tends to dive?  Or does this mean that its hard to hold an edge on snow with this consistency?  Thanks in advance…

Yeah it’s pretty soft so if you’re riding on the groomers on soft/cement snow days it can wash-out and fold up when you rail it into turns hard. Not a problem if you’re jibbing about which is really waht it’s made for.
