Been riding an Arbor Element 161 for the past 4 years and am starting to shop for a replacement board.

5'10" and 170 pounds and I ride goofy. I board inbounds and stick mainly to groomers unless there is fresh snow.

Looking for something that is better in powder/what passes for powder in the Pacific NW, is able to handle groomers and icy conditions.

Like what I've read about T Rice but have never ridden a magna-traction or reverse camber board.

Am open to suggestions/recommendations. Any good deals on closeouts on last year's models would be appreciated.

Thanks
