I really like it
This board is really fun. I am 5'5" and 120 lbs. I usually ride a 153 snowboard I got a 147 orca and I like it a lot. I can't imagine riding a 144 but I like powder
Descripción
ALL MOUNTAIN - DIRECTIONAL
Not your gutless fish. Travis has juiced up this Jackson Hole resort slasher into an apex all terrain tech shred predator. A long floaty nose combined with a powerful poppy contact maximizing short radius “Whale Tail Technology”. A tight 7m trench gouging sidecut. Wide enough to allow you to really put it on a hardpack rail with no toe drag and float pillows like a dream but still narrow enough to be your daily driver all season long. Take it to AK, drop BC pillow stacks or blow minds at the home resort all season. A mammal to eat all fish. TR. Award winning!
VOLUME SHIFTED, RIDE THIS BOARD 3-6 CM SHORTER THAN YOUR NORMAL BOARD.

Flex
How easily does this snowboard bend under pressure? A soft flex is great for fun maneuverability while a stiff flex is better for aggressive high speed hill bombing.

Awesome Pow board but not a quiver killer
Advanced rider, 185 lbs, 10.5 boots and the 153 is perfect. Been snowboarding since the 90’s and this board blew me away. SUPER fun. Amazing it pow. Turn ability in tight trees is incredible. Carving is rad. Pop is good / fun flex. Love all that. BUT this is NOT the board for bombing down firm groomers unless you are on edge. I ride fast and had some close calls on it. So, amazing board overall and I love it…but don’t expect it to do everything!

I’ve had my eye on this board for a while and I picked it up yesterday and took it to Snowbasin (they just got 6”) This board is so sick. I’m 5’10 / 165lb and I got the 153 and paired with Orion falcor bindings. I’ve been my Bataleon disaster all season (also sick board) but not so good in powder. So glad I added this to the quiver!

150 Orca
5’8”, 170lbs, 150 Orca - This board impressed me more than expected. Rode Kirkwood on a variable day (ice, wind, sun) and it handled it like a champ. It bites when it needs to, but it is also loose and playful. I am still waiting to test it out in a powder day, but I am sure it will perform. I also own a YES ‘GREATS’ and that’s my groomer day/park board. However, when conditions get deep or unpredictable, I would pick up my orca without question. Lastly, I enjoy riding switch, and the Orca does very well. Maybe the ‘GREATS’ handles better, but no complaints on the Orca.
