Description
ALL MOUNTAIN - DIRECTIONAL
Not your gutless fish. Travis has juiced up this Jackson Hole resort slasher into an apex all terrain tech shred predator. A long floaty nose combined with a powerful poppy contact maximizing short radius “Whale Tail Technology”. A tight 7m trench gouging sidecut. Wide enough to allow you to really put it on a hardpack rail with no toe drag and float pillows like a dream but still narrow enough to be your daily driver all season long. Take it to AK, drop BC pillow stacks or blow minds at the home resort all season. A mammal to eat all fish. TR. Award winning!
VOLUME SHIFTED, RIDE THIS BOARD 3-6 CM SHORTER THAN YOUR NORMAL BOARD.

Best Board Out
I have had an Orca since it first came out and I can honestly say it is the Quiver Killer Whale. It can rip Pow - Slush and everything in between. I bought another one this year and I have no doubt it will be all I need for every trip.

Love it
I got the original edition of this board. Bought it because I wanted a real powder board. I was impressed to see it is more than that. Mine is stiff and wide. It is amazing carving. I doubt if i had a quiver-of-one this would be my board. But in a quiver of a magic bm, trice pointy, and a trice split, i have been thrilled. Some stunning pow days at Taos the first season on this board. Great in tight trees too.

BEST BOARD I'VE EVER RIDDEN!!!
I was in-between two sizes, my local board shop recommended me to "STOP THINKING & JUST BUY BOTH BOARDS!" This seemed crazy at the time - as I only ride 5 days a year, but to be honest this was the best advice I've ever received. I'm 235lbs, size 13 boots and the 147cm is perfect for jib laps in the park - no toe drag what so ever! For carving I bust out the 153cm it's possibly the best carving snowboard that's currently available. The magnetraction locks into the snow so hard, you really have to be careful early season that you don't shred into the soil beneath. I love the way the tail drifts out mid carve to give this surfy look to my turns. So stoked to ride them in the pow, hopefully this years trip lines up with a storm like it did in 2012 when we got 2 epic mornings of champagne powder!
