“After hearing nothing but good things from my buddy Rhys (see verdict below), I was super keen to get a day on the BOD. I’m so glad I did. A lot of the Tignes community are loyal fans of Endeavor and with a snowboard such as this one it’s easy to see why.

This is exactly what I want from an all-mountain snowboard. It steps up to faster riding and increased forces, the ends are super floaty (way more than you’d ever expect for a true twin) and the pop from the full-length camber is on point.

Though I’ve never been a die-hard fan of 3D base profiles, it’s subtle enough on the BOD to feel like a traditional camber, but there were a few moments on some flatland jibs where it definitely saved my pride.

“The BOD just felt like the board I wanted to be on for every condition I encountered that day”

I didn’t ride it in blower powder or perfect springtime groomers. In fact, it was a pretty ordinary day to take it out on. I think that’s what I loved so much about it though. Most boards feel pretty great on the best days of the season, but not so many feel this fun on the average days. There were some clouds, there was some ice, there were some bumps and crud, there was also a few leftovers of powder, but nothing to write home about.

The BOD just felt like the board I wanted to be on for every condition encountered that day- both the good and the bad. That, for me, is all-mountain versatility at its best.”

“The Endeavor Board Of Directors is a great daily driver, and felt pretty straightforward to ride. Cool graphics too – liking the new unisex range this year. It’s built for freestyle, flatland tricks, jibbing and is awesome for side hits – just a really good all-round charger to be honest. Also the the twin shape and flex makes this perfect for riding switch. 

It felt smooth when changing edges and really solid for carving which is probably down to that 3D camber in the nose and tail, but I’d be happy taking this board out into any conditions.

Was real fun in the park as its got bags of pop, found it went well over both smaller and larger jumps.

Good grip on the groomers.  Didn’t get the chance to take this in powder and not sure that is quite this board’s forte but would happily give it a go if given the chance. 

I’d recommend this board to intermediate and advanced riders who are looking for something to charge the whole mountain on and get in the park.”
