"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I’ve recommended the Pathfinder to friends starting out and it’s always a hit. It’s easy to ride, forgiving, and playful enough for learning tricks without being punishing. I like that it feels stable at moderate speeds but still soft enough for presses and butters. For the price, it’s one of the best boards to grow with.""Who It’s ForBeginner to Intermediate Freestyle Riders:The Pathfinder is made for snowboarders who want a budget-friendly board to build skills in the park and across the resort. It’s forgiving for those new to snowboarding but still has enough response to satisfy progressing freestyle riders who want to expand their bag of tricks. What It’s ForResort Riding and Park Progression:With its Park V2 camber profile and flat kick design, the Pathfinder blends stability underfoot with easy turn initiation and catch-free tips. It thrives in the terrain park, on side hits, and cruising mellow groomers while staying versatile enough for powder laps when conditions line up. Why We Like ItValue, Forgiveness, and Playful Progression:We like the Pathfinder because it delivers a fun freestyle experience without breaking the bank. The Dual Core provides pop and durability, Special Blend fiberglass makes it lightweight and smooth, and the Superdrive base adds speed and durability with minimal upkeep. It’s an approachable, confidence-building board for riders who want to learn and progress quickly."
