Control, versatility and confidence are the key themes here and the core profile is specifically designed for women to compliment the flex and directionally cambered shape for a floaty ride in pow or groomers.Very popular in BC, this board was made to create hard charging moments, the kind that makes for good stories at après and beyond." – Natha n, burton.com Good To-Go Dehydrated Backcountry Meals “All-day mountain adventures require a lot of fuel to keep your legs pumping while you’re earning those turns.
