Thanks for your review on these boards! It really helped me pick my new board for this season. KOOKS ONLY...no locals!! Super stoked to rip the mountain with my new 156 SB Resort Twin!
I definitely agree that the shadowban is an easy board to like. Ride/K2 have produced a lot of great new boards in the past few years
I was looking to get GNU GWO or YES standard/Jackpot for an all-around board, after your review I'm actually considering getting the wired directive.
This video answered my question left on another one of your videos. Which btw they are great. Short and to the point. So sick of these 20 minute videos talking about nothing. Thanks my dude!
The Shadowban is the first board I've had that I wanted to ride every day, did ride almost every day, and still want to ride every day. Paired with Katanas. Top sheet is nicked up pretty bad but I'll be on this thing until it claps.
Jones mountain twin first good board I ever had and definitely brought my skills up a notch. In Europe here and Do recommend.
so im trying to choose between the amplid singular and ride shadowban. Im an “advanced” snowboarder and i ride on the slopes mostly and love some off piste and small jumps/ tricks. Im 6”2 and 175lbs. Which one would you recommend and what size? Im thinking 161 or should i go smaller.
Great videos, Great insight, Thanks
Aggressive rider, capita fan, already have a Bsod and a Kazu, just bought the Resort twin after your reviews for a fun board with my teens, just hope I'll like it as Im in love with the look of it !

Hey avran. Just want to say the quality of your videos went way up. Nice.
Would you size down on the Resort Twin for park/groomers? Noticed the effective edge is pretty long on it. For example 1196mm on the 154

As always awesome. Thanks. I rode the 2023 Ride Shadowban last year on your recommendation and absolutely loved it. A brilliant board. The only issue is that I could only get a 154cm - which given I'm 63kg and short - was a touch big for me. So post season, I took the option to sell it for just a bit less than I paid for it! On the back of I was wondering if you would recommend a 151cm Shadowban or a 154cm Resort Twin? I saw that the recommended weight range for the 154 Resort Twin is more like the 151cm Shadowban (rather than the 154cm version).

Just picked up my second board (shadowban) through your affiliate links. Bought the BSOD last year but needed something a little more playful and forgiving while riding with my young kids. Thanks for being angry, angry!
I rode TRS for 12 years (x3 boards) my last one is 8 years old (time off due to knee injury) I loved them, they seem to have got stiffer and the camber profile has changed. Switched to Mercury, partly due to Angry´s reviews and fancied some diversity in my life, took some time to get into with the full camber, but find it most excellent now....could be tempted to go back to TRS as i loved those boards. Mind you still have my old TRS which has still got some days left in it. I am a rad dad, but dont think much of buttering...more soul riding :)
Dear Avran, do you have links for affiliates that would ship the Spring break to east EU? Unlucky but EVO does not
I just bought a custom graphic one of one wired directive. So cool you can kinda build your own custom pro model now. It’s snowing and it’s almost that time. Woot woot.
I have a Wired Devun Walsh Directive pro model board. Absolutely love it. Stable as hell and stiff.
Love the reviews!: I’m having a hard time choosing. Riding style/area is Midwest choppy/icy snow. Groomers, hard carves, side hits, butters and a little park. Occasional trips out west, but not to justify needing a board for pow. Which deck would you go with in my situation? Id consider myself an advanced rider.

Considering a Shadowban with some Union Force bindings to get back into it. I would say I was somewhere intermediate, could pop ollies, switch, love a big carve. I know It will take a while to get my bearings again haha However can only get the 2025 Shadowban. Looking for a quiver of one, do it all, small jumps, hips, carves, some light park stuff here and there, rad millennial(not a dad, can't join the rad dad crew) stuff all over the mountain.

I've been interested in those boards too. Get one? Have a lib with with magna traction not sure I noticed much of it when I first got on it. Bought on the ice coast riding cannon mt which is like famous for ice.

@@eedom69 I ended up with a second hand GNU RC. This is the C2 camber profile with very small magne traction. I can feel it is gripping the terrain more especially on an icy run and steeper run. compared to Burton Process that I prebiously borrowed from a friend or some Solomon rental board. But, I do agree that improving my skill level is better than any magne traction.
how would the spring break compare to the k2 hypnotist?

Wired Directive or Devun Walsh for chasing 7/4/2 yo. Any binding recommendations? Need something that’s not going to kill my knee and still have fun chasing kids.

Magic 8 ball says "in the future".
The spring break twin looks perfect, except I worry about the death grip. I rode my friends mercury and it seemed like the death grip made it super catchy at slow speeds setting up for a rail or on a cat track? I wonder if the difference in camber profiles might change the way the death grip feels on this board?

They sit in the same category but the DeepFake is going to charge harder just due to its construction.

WHen you said it's not for everyone did you mean cause it's stiff? Got the TRS but didn't like it my first day at all. 2nd was a bit better and then on my 3rd went back to my old C2 banana magic and that felt all weird with a rocker in the middle. Thinking I am sticking with camber but not sure the TRS is for me. First impressions were it was way too stiff. Felt like a tank and not agile and I got all tossed around when hitting bumps. Decided I do like the camber and the posture it puts me in like a squat vs. the more upright position the C2 had me in. And maybe it could grow on me. But I think it's too stiff and the season is over and I will probably put it on ebay.
Finally a mention of the Resort Twin. That was a fun board.
