Best Praise
+21 ptsβI would bet the mercury would be better overall than the DOAβ
r/snowboarding
ViewTop Criticism
+3 ptsβThe Mercury is a bit much for a beginner, itβs stiff and more suited for advanced riders. Youβd probably have more fun (and progress faster) on something a little more forgiving, like the DOA or even an all mountain board that leans freeride but isnβt full charger mode yet.β

+18 ptsβWarpig is a sweet board but man that graphic just doesn't do it for meβ
r/snowboarding
ViewTop Criticism
+111 ptsβTbf, the Warpig is flat-rocker board. So lacking some pop is expected since there isn't a camber to engage. (Also affecting edge-hold). Probably should have gone with the SuperPig. Same shape, but camber dominant and more carbon.β
