- Description
From park laps to powder lines, the MAAX moves across the whole mountain with precision and control. Its dual-radius sidecut links quick turns with stability at speed. Directional hybrid camber balances edge control and float, while a spoon-shaped nose glides through deeper snow.
Dura-LT Carbon and Carbon X45 fiberglass add smooth response, power, and snap with less weight. A lightweight poplar and balsa core keeps the ride lively, while a sintered base carries speed across varied terrain.

I’m hopeful of a great winter for 26-27. This winter was not a great one. I’m looking forward to seeing exactly what this board can do in powder and trees.

I got the 160 because I wanted the surf feel while going through powder and man this board is amazing!! It literally feels like I’m floating over the snow. Riding on deep untouched powder felt like I was hovering on a cloud. Super smooth ride, and super responsive on tight turns which really surprised me! Made the whole experience feel like I was a pro surfer carving back and forth through the terrain. Not to mention this board is fast…. like REALLY fast. Even at some of the faster speeds straight-lining down the mountain, the board was super stable and didn’t feel like it was going to give out under me. It’s also really light and just an absolutely beautiful look. Overall, exceeded my expectations and definitely worth the price. I plan on using my old board for icy terrain (Mad River mountain, OH) but use the MAAX for softer snow. I got lots of compliments on it and can’t wait for next season already!

The MAAX is an awesome soft to mid flex board that holds a great edge when carving and is still playful and poppy! with variable conditions this season ('25/'26 season in Vail) it still performed amazingly! Couldn't be happier with this board. For reference, I'm 5'9'' and 155lbs and the 156cm MAAX was the ticket
