Men

Tall riders naturally love riding the 6'. The final choice is made upon the flex. This stiffness paramter depends of course on your weight, but also on your riding style : smooth, or more aggressive. Particulier case : if you exclusively ride short and medium turns, with few freeriding, choose a 5'5'' in a stiffer flex pattern. Our tip: if you're a former alpine rider, you will just love the 6++.

TO DEEPEN

Now, let's have a look at the various riding possibilites given by this great sport, so you can locate yourself in this big variety of styles. Of course if you're part of the 10% of hardcore freestylers, keep riding a medium short and twintip board that will offer you substantial performance in airs and jibs, while being naturally less performant away from the snowparks. You should know that the magical board that works 100% in all conditions does not exist. But our D1, while sacrifiying some air perforance is really getting close to it. At least it is the board of the market for 90 % of the riders that we are.

SPECS

You must know that for a given edge length, the D1 is taller than a classical shaped board. This length, and surface provides you a great floatation in powder while keeping the manoeuvrability on groomed of a short board. The size difference comes from the long and progressive nose profile. By this mean, the D1 5'2"" (158 cm) has the same edge legnth than a 148 cm classic shape, which is ideal for girls and small men builts. The D1 5'5'' (165 cm) equals a 155 cm. La 6' (178 cm) equals a classic freeride board of approximately 166 cm. Unlike most companies, we do not use true radiuses for our outlines. The value that is noted below is a "felt radius" on snow while riding.
