All Mountain Freestyle board suggestions - Snowboarding Forum

03-01-2009, 08:46 AM

Hi everyone,
I have been riding for 3 years and I'm an intermediate rider. I do mostly freeride but Im beginning to do more freestyle. I'm not crazy about charging down the mountain at full speed. I enjoy just cruising, hitting every jump I can find along the way and dipping into the trees. I started riding switch and I'm hitting the parks a little more often. I currently ride on a GNU 156 (dont know the model) with K2 Cinchs. Im 5'8" 175 lbs. I want a new board and bindings for all mountain freestyle. Something that is playful but can still carve and hold an edge in these crappy northeast conditions. With all I have read so far, I'm leaning toward the K2 Jibpan with Formula or Rome 390 bindings. But I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks.

You should prob check out the Rome Agent, its a great all mountain freestyle board than handles well in the park and you can still bomb down a steep run. Great board.

rome agent- iv got fantastic board.
burton custom - my fav board, is abit stiff(ish) tho
capita scare/stairmaster - there soft almountain boards, 70% park 30% basicly. (also an extreem wish is abit stiffer)
nitro t2 - really good board, same flex as a custom about, a bit more aggressive tho..

theres loads, just use the seach

The Nitro Misfit is the epitome of all mountain freestyle.
