Hey mate great review!!!! From your reviews I’m about to get either the capita mercury or the Salomon dancehaul, i want/need a allmountain board that can do it all as easy as possible, will be my only board. I ride usually groomers, a few laps to the park (just rails and boxes, cause I’m afraid of getting hurt) small kickers., and if we get lucky down here will love to handle pow and off piste terrain. So a mix of everything, I’m about you size, a bit shorter at 1.8mts , 68 kg, 10.5 boot size. Which board would you recommend me ??? Thanks

Hi, great review as always...I am 195lbs and 10UK boots...would you recommend 152 or 157 for me? Looking for carving but also some funny butters, side hits, etc...

Hey great review! I was actually on the fence about the 152, but after your review I’m considering the 147. I’m 5’10”, 8.5 US boot size and 165lbs. I generally love to carve aggressively, but I’m looking at the dancehaul for that nimble maneuverability to hit moguls and glades with. Also looking at this board to have some fun with, add some flare and surfing-like carves with it, hence the shorter size. But when it comes to aggressive deep carves, I’m also hoping to have some of that with this board. So would you recommend the 147, or should I stick with the 152?

@SnowboardRobot

Thanks! That is a tough one, you definitely have tons of wiggle room with 8.5s, so either is an option. Shorter 147 will definitely be a whole lot surfier, but that decent step up in width on the 152 will let you carve harder. Even if you went with the 152, it still is a small board with a small sidecut, so it will be way different from any regular board.

Nice review. What's your binding setup? did you say +12/-9 and how far back are your bindings? thanks man. I'm looking for an all-mountain freestyle boards that can be used every condition. Thinking of Bataleon Party Wave, how would you compare this to the party wave? thanks!

Good review as always. Looks like a fun board. I had the Warpig a few years back and really liked it. I moved on to try other boards but was thinking about getting it again or trying the Super Pig.

Definitely, if I can get hold of another Superpig this season I will make a video comparing them.

Thanks! I haven't ridden the Party Platter yet, though its specs make it seem very similar, and a notch stiffer as well. I don't think I could have gone for the 143, the waist is too small, I think I am closer to the higher limit on the 147 for my weight/boots. I would recommend the 147 for you as well, no matter if your weight fluctuates you'll still be nicely within the weight range. It will be the best balance for size 9 boots as well, wide enough to let you carve hard but without having a slow edge to edge feel.

How would you compare this with the Ride Superpig? I have a ride mtn pig for hard-charging days and bombing groomers. I've come to enjoy the stiffer board (especially the stiff tail for landings), but want to add something more playful (but still great for some carving and all-mountain) to the quiver.

It sounds like it might be a good addition for you, it is a million times more playful and flexible than the Superpig. You might find that the softer tail might take some getting used to, especially seeing that you would be riding it in a smaller size, but it isn't a huge change, and overall it makes so much terrain fun that I think it is worth it.

@SnowboardRobot

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Even though it sounds short I would still consider the 147 as an option - it easily has enough width for your boots. The advantage of the 152 would be the extra width if you like to carve hard on groomers, but you might find that the 147 is a bit easier to move and spin around in the park. No matter what size you choose, either would be fun. The Asymulator is a good board as well, but very standard and no where near as fun as I found the Dancehaul.

So, I have a Dancehaul and love it. Now I'm looking for a twin with a similar feel. Which one of Salomon's twin boards do you think would ride most like the Dancehaul?

@SnowboardRobot

2 жыл бұрын

A whole lot of Salomon boards use the same profile and materials as the Dancehaul, so the Villain, Assassin (technically not a true twin but you wouldn't notice) and Sleepwalker would be good options. The Sleepwalker will be the softest and cheapest, with the Villain being a fancier upgraded park board, and the Assassin as an all-mountain.

Awesome review..... how does this board handle steeps and speed ? Is it stiff enough to ride steep terrain ?

Thanks! It isn't that stiff, so if you were riding nice steep/deep powder it has a nice feel, but if the terrain gets a bit more serious I found that the tail and shorter length made it a bit harder to ride. Although I haven't ridden it, the K2 Party Platter has some similar specs/dimensions, but with a stiffer flex.

Great vid! rhe board looks really soft. I've been riding a flat rocker board for a bit and looking for something with a lot more pop and edge hold. was thinking the Mercury or something like the superpig but think it might be too much board. whats your thoughts?

@SnowboardRobot

3 жыл бұрын

I think that the Superpig might be a bit much, it is pretty full on, especially from a flat/rocker board. You can't go wrong with both the Dancehaul or Mercury (the two boards I haven't wanted to sell on). The Dancehaul is easily the softer of the two, but for most riding I think it will still have plenty of support. The Mercury does feel stiffer especially when it is new, so while the pop will be really good, it might not be playful enough until you really get used to it.

Can you eurocarve with the 147 or is it to narrow for that? I want the board to perform well everywere since it would be my daily driver.

It did take me a while to work out if I wanted to be on the 147 (that I demoed much earlier in the year) or jump up to the 152 - but I do like that the 147 is very smooth and fast edge to edge, but easy to move around with its short length. You could carve pretty deep on the 147, but seeing you want to focus on powder and carving, the 152 will probably be the better choice. The extra 9mm of width will give you more float, and you'll be able to carve deeper.

Although all those boards have their good positives, the Stratos will do everything you wanted with the least downsides, with the Otto a decent second.

Hey man. Love the video. I was hoping you could help me decide on a board for this winter. I'm an advanced rider but its a toss up between the 2021 evil twin, ultimate ride, or huck knife. I'm also 6ft and 145 lb was thinking of going for a 155. I stance my board similar to yours. But I'm really looking to shred the park mostly this year.

Hi, Great video, this was very helpful to me before I purchased this snowboard a few years back. I’ve not been able to test it in powder yet due to variable conditions in Norway but loved it on the groomers though. I’ve purchased a 152 & I’am size 11 boots 188 tall & approx 90kg. I’am usually set up to the recommended position. I ride with 0 on the back foot & +18 on the front. In a few weeks time I will be riding power & wasn’t sure if I should set my stance back? I’am struggling to find any information about this especially with volume shifted boards like the Dancehaul. What would you recommend? Gary:-)

Thanks! Give it a shot riding with the standard stance setup in powder, I didn't feel the need to move mine back. Even at the standard position, you will have the big wide nose and small tail to help. Move it back if you are working too hard, but seeing that the tail is pretty soft, it might change the ride quite a bit.

I'm 5'6, 142 lbs, boot size 8.5. I come from a surfing background and currently ride the Salmon Super 8 154cm. . I spend most of my time cruising--carving groomers/chunder, and not the type to go too fast. I'm looking to get into a little bit more freestyle riding--mainly jumps, buttering, and a little bit of switch. Would you recommend the 143 or 147?

@SnowboardRobot

Sorry I missed this, I will put this reply on the site as well. I think that the 147 will be the best choice for you. Although you could size down to the 143, it gets a bunch narrower, so you won't be getting as much help carving as you would with the wider 147. It will still be plenty playful for buttering, and stay solid enough for jumps.

it would be nice just to get some footage of you riding around in this

I’m a high level beginner that’s getting more and more comfortable on blues every outing and I’m looking to pick up a do it all board to progress with. I’m 150-160lbs with a US size 8 boot and I’m deciding between a 156 jones frontier and a 147 dancehaul. I see a lot of ice and hard packed snow living in the east coast United States. Would this be a better choice than the frontier?

I think that the Frontier will probably feel more stable being quite a bit stiffer, but the Dancehaul is a lot more fun. The Dancehaul is a do-able option one ice and hard packed snow, but I still wouldn't expect the performance to be that good realistically. If you are considering any other boards, I would also look at some of the videos I have done on Never Summer boards, their edge hold makes ice and hard snow not an issue at all.

Great review! I'm trying to decide between this board and the 2021 Lib Tech Orca. Not sure if you rode that board also and have an opinion? I assume this would be a good board in the trees, since it turns easily? I'm 5"10" and 170-175 lbs. Looks like I could ride the 147 also. Not sure if there's a reason to bump up to the 152? Thanks and keep the great videos coming!

@SnowboardRobot

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I haven't ridden the Orca for long enough to give it a good comparison, but I will do a good review on it this season at some point. The Dancehaul is quick and easy to turn in tight trees, but any board that has a short length and taper would do well there as well. The biggest difference between the Orca bit.ly/2G0KQK7 and Dancehaul other than the price is the camber - Orca has rocker between your feet, while the Dancehaul has camber (which I prefer, on any style board). Technically, with the Orca having rocker between your feet, as well as being directional and tapered it should float easily - it just isn't the style I prefer. You could ride both the 147 or 152 in the Dancehaul, it would depend a little on what terrain you would want to ride. The wider waist on the 152 will give it a bit more float in deeper snow, but the 147 will also turn a bit quicker. Depending on the terrain you like to ride most might help make a choice.

How do you rate it’s edge hold in icy conditions? I seem to get a lot of icy conditions at Perisher and want something that is all mountain but good edge hold.

Thank you very much for this excellent review !

But I really don't know which size would be the best because I am tall (192 cm) and light (69 kg), which would rather make me choose the 152 I suppose. But I have US boots size 13, which would lead me to take the 157 to gain a little more in width. The 147 is given for 60-85 kg (255 mm wide), the 152 for 70-90 kg (264 mm wide) and the 157 for 70-105 kg (269 mm wide). Thank you in advance for your help :o) And how would you compare the Dancehaul with the Nitro Team, which is the second option that would interest me and that you have also tested ?

I did really like the Nitro Team as well, and although it is a solid all-mountain board, it doesn't have anywhere near the same playful feel as the Dancehaul. If you like stiffer camber skis, or like the feel of a full camber board, then it is a good choice, but it sounds like the Dancehaul will be more fun overall.

Thoughts on 152 vs 157 for someone who is 6"2 / 190 lbs?

@SnowboardRobot

Both would be an option, but I think that the 152 would have a much more fun overall feel - quick to turn, still easy to press, but the 157 would probably feel a bit more like a regular board, though still a decent options. A lot would depend on the terrain you want to ride as well.

I’am the same but 5lbs lighter, I like cruising groomers & on powder days I hit the trees. Size 10.5 uk or 45 euro boots. I’am stuck in the middle but I ordered the 152 thinking it’ll be more fun the the trees plus more fun. Hope I made the right choice 🤞🤞😀

What’s the main differences between the ride super pig and the dancehaul?

@SnowboardRobot

The Superpig is much stiffer and more aggressive, but the Dancehaul is more playful and way easier to flex.

What do you think about this one in comparison with Super 8?

I liked the Super 8, it was a solid do everything board, but the Dancehaul was much more fun, It would depend if you wanted to stick to a regular board like the Super 8, or get something short and a bit different like the Dancehaul.

Worth getting if you already have a warpig?

Yeah I think that it is a nice upgrade from the Warpig - better edge hold and pop, better carving and a bit more playful. Although I did own a Warpig and liked it, I found the Dancehaul to be better in almost every way.

Do you think this board is too agressive for a beginner with one year experience snowboarding?

No I think you would get used to it pretty fast. The flex isn't too stiff, and the rocker on the nose and tail will help it not feel too catchy.

Any binding recommendations for this board?

I liked stiffer bindings, so I would either look at the older Cartels (or the newer Cartel X), as well as the Salomon Highlander.
