Description
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.

fun hog
poppy & playful; great tighter terrain powder stick, AND a ripper small radius carver (aggressive tail hooks nicely when cranked over). versatile & SO much fun.
Rocketship
The 162 is a rocket ship......
Holy buckets, Batman. This thing does it all. Me - advanced snowboarding skill for a wisconsinite. 6'2" 210 lbs I had no issues moving the 162 around. Yes, it is big but the stability on carve is unparalleled to any board I have ever ridden - credit to the board shape and magne traction. I sized down on my previous board (154 Warpig) and I liked it a lot but on pow days, it always left me wanting more (not enough float) I think the Orca will not disappoint the next time I ride pow in Steamboat....... Conditions: Midwest packed powder with pockets of ice. First lap took a little getting used to (this is brand new board to me, brand new shape) feeling it out....not sure if I like it.... Second lap, leaned more into the back leg - woah. Okay, I think i got the hang of it..... Third lap, rail to rail, carve city - population you, bro. The rest of the day was spent on edge, literally. The orca carves like there is no tomorrow. When they say "this board turns ice into powder", there is 0% BS in this statement. Pop - even at 162, I was very impressed with the amount of pop I got off of small hits. Sent me like I haven't felt before and landings were very stable as well. Playfulness - not all that playful - but note that I sized for that. As you've read, go smaller if you want maneuverability. If you want speed, wicked carves, and float, size up. I had no problem popping frontside and backside 180s at speed. At speed - STEADY. like a rocketship blasting off. Point it, send it, carve it, rip it, surf it. I am stoked that I purchased this snowboard and will probably be riding it for the next 10 years.

THIS THING FKING RIPS
I absolutely love this board, I was hesitant buying it since I live on the east coast with very rare pow days but I must say, this board quickly became my favorite all time board, I’m 5’9”, 145lbs and ride a 150 and sheesh this thing just rips anything out there on the mountain! To steep drop off’s to going fast on groomers, to sending it off jumps this board can do it all! Definitely wanna buy another next season! Gonna size up and go for a 153 probably
Best board on snow
This thing does it all
I can’t get it to fall short, in any style of riding! It floats in deeper snow, and it carves like a champion in the groomed resort runs. I’m in love
