Head Incite Snowboard Test Notes
"I definitely noticed the camber in the board. It is quite aggressive compared to what I'm used to riding. It's really nice; it held an edge really well, especially in the slushy conditions. It was really stable under my feet. A lot of boards now have mixed camber, and it's nice to have something that's more traditional. It definitely is super poppy. This board would be great, all-mountain everywhere. Like a terrain killer. You could ride it in groomers, you could ride it in the park and the powder, but I think it excels the most on groomers. It feels really satisfying, especially with the edge hold and the board's camber. For somebody who's an intermediate to advanced rider who wants something to be super stable under your feet when you're going higher speeds, I think this board would be perfect for you."—Riz
