I have big feet. There I said it and I am unashamed. When it come to snowboards I need a wide board to stop my toes being too far over the edge of the board. I am certainly not the only snowboarder out there with big feet, so why oh why do so few manufacturers build wide style boards.

Anyway, thankfully morrow have, and it is affordable as well. I bought the 157 version and find it to be a great ride. I am probably an intermediate snowboarder, I can just do 360's and I like half pipes. I also like charging through powder and fast downhills, I use this board for all of these.

It is great in the half pipe (although to be honest it is probably alittle too long for proper half pipe riding), it is fast for the downhills, it has plenty of flex for landing jumps, but where it really comes into its own is in powder. I think this is because of the extra width, it allows it to float a little better on top of the snow. Turns are a dream in powder with just a small shift in weight the board carves around beautifully.

The only slight downside is that the holes drilled for the bindings is morrows own standard so you have to stick morrow bindings on. It's not such a big deal as I have a set of morrow aluminum bindings and they are really good, but if you already have burton style they ain'nt going to fit on this puppy !

In conclusion this is a great board for riders who are progressing up the scale of ability but don`t live close enough to the mountains to justify spending £360 plus on a board.
