Fish 156 Snowboard – Men’s by Burton

The new fish 156 Snowboard from Burton is back with all added features and advantages since its launch in 2009. I found this snowboard very easy and a complete fun to ride over the snow. While riding this spring-loaded S rocker it gave feeling as if I am smoothly floating over the snow. True to the other fish versions, this board also got the swallow tail that really helps the nose to stay buoyant while maintaining the proper speed at turns without getting mired. With the best features loaded in this board it let me stay on the speed I desired while being moored on the board with very little efforts. Some extraordinary features that made me purchase this Fish 156 snowboard are.

• Triax response fiberglass- this feature helped to gain versatile flex and retort that’s capable of everything from straight-line big mountain descents to smooth laps through the park.
• S rocker- this entry rocker extends 4mm from the nose of the board till your front foot and then transits to the camber present under your back foot. This design helps to keep the nose afloat because after punching the camber present under back foot it ultimately lifts the nose above.
• Sintered WFO vision base- this is an ultimate feature which I liked about this snowboard. This enabled great wax absorption with durable and porous base that gave a splendid glide. 

This board is also loaded with some additional features such as infinite channel system and Powerfly core, which makes it a complete delight for boarders.
