While I love carving, I hate carving on a small sidecut. The peace seeker has the smallest sidecut I've ever seen at 4.5/7.5. When you lay a board over, that sidecut dictates the turn size. It's easy to flex a board into a smaller turn but its hard to flex it into a larger turn. I personally hate swoopy little turns and love having more time in a carve. I'm blown away that Angry named it the number one carver. Did he lay it out?

I’ve gotten mine out a few times lately, boards ridiculously fun, you look at it and it wants to carve a circle. Got it into soft knee deep yesterday, slopes and trees and it’s like a supercharged gokart, whipped through the crud as it started to lump up, nose floated like a dream and the kicked up tail was a hoot to press n swizzle on

I need a few more days but the flaired tail also made more drawn out carves easier then I thought it would be, not quite sure why yet but it just wants to jump carve when you flex the tail

all in all it took a day to figure out but is incredibly fun with a super fast base, as a 250lb ogre I was shocked by how locked in I felt on a 155

I'm hoping I can find one in my size this spring on sale. I just can't bring myself to buy another board right now, but I really want to try this board out. It seems like exactly what I'm looking for.

it’s a pretty sweet rig, if they come out with a 158-160cm next season I’ll have one to sell you at 155

Just read "The Good Ride" review and I disagree with them saying the board wouldn't straight line or skate well. I had zero issues with this board anywhere. Lot of straight lines out here and I didn't have it catch or try to kill me once. It did everything I wanted it to do with no compromises and I never felt like I should swap it out for another board. Thinking back, I never even lost an edge or washed out a heel side turn even though I wasn't fulling committing due to the rough conditions.

Really can't say enough good things about it. It was like they read my mind and made exactly the board I was looking for.

thats very odd, I haven’t felt like mine is squirrely at all, only stability downside I’ve seen is high speeds due to its short EE (and my weight)

Only thing I don't like is those pointed tips. Fragile to careless skiers in lift lines and resting the board vertically, dangerous if someone plows into the back of you on the slopes.

This is my one beef with ride's even outside the tips, top sheet gets scratched if you look at it wrong

Side note, pointy tips are excellent for standing the board up in the snow

I ride mine with 2018 falcors, rides like a dream

Bump for more PS comments. I was eying the MTNPIG for charging, carving, and pow but now have the PS on my radar. Seems like the main difference is that I could steer the MTNPIG from front to back with more range than the PS which sounds like more of a predominantly backfoot ride, no surprise. Anyone have experience with a direct comparison of the two and what they prefer on each?

Edit to add I'm 145lbs sz9 boot. Specs say I fit squarely on the 142cm, which seems shocking to me that I would be carving and stable on something that short, especially since I'd be on the 155 MTNPIG. Not really a proper question but wtf

I ride the 155 at @250lbs so I probably bend it more then most, I'd say it drives very well off the front foot, great circle turns and fast side to side, i find it very nimble for almost all sorts of turns with multiple styles

In regards to vs the MTN Pig i would assume its softer, probably better in pow with the a trade off that the nose is a bit flappier then the pig
