Korua
KORUA's dedicated carving missile, built with full camber tip-to-tail rather than the Float Camber used on most of the range -- one of only a few KORUA shapes with true traditional camber. Snowboard Robot's review found it had a genuinely low learning curve for a KORUA board, with excellent edge hold and stability at high speed even in mixed, partly-icy Whistler conditions. The Good Ride's review described it as sitting between the Dart and Pencil in feel, with a particularly powerful, satisfying turn and surprisingly strong powder float for a groomer-focused shape, while a women's-specific review from the same outlet found it precise and stable in steeps with an impressive spring out of every carve, though it prefers to be ridden at medium-to-high speed to feel its best.
