2013 Forum Holy Moly II Review
Posted on November 12, 2012 | No CommentsThis year's Holy Moly II is basically an overhaul of the original so I'm not sure why they stuck with that name rather than call it something else. I didn't ride the original so I can't make a comparison to that, but here's how the very last "best park board in the world" stacks up. -
2013 Ride Machete GT Snowboard Review
Posted on May 18, 2012 | 9 CommentsThe Machete GT is a board that has had my curiosity for some time now. When I first heard about a Ride board coming with a new tech called "Pop Walls" I was very interested. -
2013 Arbor Blacklist Snowboard Review
Posted on March 16, 2012 | 18 CommentsI've been hearing a lot about Arbor snowboards lately and although they've always appealed to me aesthetically with a lot of sexy woodgrain topsheets, I've never had a chance to ride one.

2012 Burton Custom Flying-V Review
Posted on September 19, 2011 | No CommentsBurton's flagship deck, if you haven't heard of the Custom go put your ski-blades back on and get out of here. How's it stack up? -
2012 Never Summer Proto CT Review
Posted on April 20, 2011 | 13 CommentsThe Never Summer Proto C/T is brand new for the 2012 lineup. It is a blunt shaped true twin with Never Summer's Rocker+Camber tech and an invincible Carbonium topsheet. It is supposed to fall somewhere in between the Evo which is a true twin park dominator and the SL which is a slightly setback, directional all-mountain stick. -
K2 Jibpan Review (2010)
Posted on March 9, 2011 | No CommentsOverall this is a great board; perfect for the intermediate rider who wants to gain confidence on the slopes and start playing in the park. Conditions were the common southern Michigan groomers. We did actually get 1 day of great snow so it was a somewhat “powder day”. It handled all of these very well. -
2012 Burton Whammy Bar Review
Posted on March 3, 2011 | 5 CommentsThe Whammy bar is one of the Big B's pricepoint freestyle decks, designed to deliver maximum playfulness for all your jibtastic needs. Leo & I rode the 2012 Whammy Bar at Test Fest in February, paired with the Burton Cartel EST bindings. -
Emerge Crow Snowboard Review
Posted on February 7, 2011 | 5 CommentsFirst impressions: it's a flat rocker and I like me some flat rocker - it locked on to jibs with ease. After this session the base was pretty dinged up.
