![]() I’m a lighter rider and didn’t have issues with the Harpoon being too soft in these types of situations. The Harpoon handled great through large mogul fields and super tight trees. It was a nice Colorado powder day at Breckenridge and we sought out the steepest terrain we could find. I mainly rode the Harpoon off piste the entire first day I tested this board. But the Womens Harpoon is capable of riding fast, it just will be a little less stable then some other Alternative Free-ride boards out there. It isn’t a super hard charging, speed hungry board. It has good stability for riding at higher speeds. The Harpoon comes with a high quality sintered base, so it gets nice glide in a lot of different snow conditions. Making it responsive and easy to turn in just about any situation. Because of the rocker in the middle of the board, the Harpoon is easy to twist. But it has good pop for jumps and ollies. The pop is pretty decent, I didn’t find it as snappy as a board with a traditional camber profile. Buttering is fairly easy on the nose and a little more difficult on the tail. Overall it has a nice, forgiving all mountain flex. It is stable enough to ride at higher speeds, but soft enough to stay nimble when turning quickly or playing around. It also comes with longer, drawn out nose that keeps you floating in powder. But the positive camber zones give you added performance, better edge hold and decent pop. It is loose and playful and easy to turn. The Harpoon has a reverse camber feel when riding on snow. This is a hybrid rocker profile that has a prominent rocker zone in the middle, and positive camber zones under the bindings. The Never Summer Womens Harpoon comes with Fusion Rocker Camber. I just think the personality would become more playful if I sized down. I would love this board in a 138, but the 144 didn’t feel too big for me either. It comes with over 20mm of setback and 13mm of taper and a wide waist width as well (246mm). You are able to size down with the Harpoon if you want. I rode the 144, which is about 2cm longer than I normally ride, but is a good length for a freeride board based on my specs. I really wish there were a few more options in the sizes available, both on the smaller side and the bigger side.
