Palmer Snowboard Reviews

The internet has made things much simpler for all of us especially when it comes to information. The world is now at our fingertips and so are Palmer snowboard reviews. Let’s look at two of the most popular models – the Titanium and the Strike.

Palmer Titanium
This board was the first to use titanium and carbon which stiffens the board slightly and makes it more stable. It is designed for those who are extremely advanced in their skill and who are looking to purchase a top of the line market that will surpass anything else on the market.

This board has just made it to market and it’s also sold under the name Palmer Crown free ride snowboard. These boards are made from titanium and that in itself has plenty of power on the slopes and off.

The 3D design enhances the performance dramatically and it also makes the board lighter than anything else on the market. The core is made of Nomex which is not affect by moisture. It is ten times lighter than wood.

The new PLS Shock technology increases the power and leverage of the board giving the rider way more control and the ability to turn sharply. The snowboard will not get tired as quickly because of the reduced energy needed to control this board.

Palmer has a reputation for creating quality, high performance snowboards with the least number of warranty returns. The $800 plus price tag might seem steep but it’s worth every dime.

Palmer Strike
When it comes to price this snowboard is the exact opposite of the Titanium. It’s very inexpensive making it a great choice for anyone on a budget. Pick it up for around $300.

The beech and polar core makes this a very light board. The multi angled NCF pre-pegs provide consistent lamination and the 3 layers of Polytyamide will give the board the extra strength it needs. ‘

This board is well built and it has excellent edge response as well as an amazing snap. All of the features that Palmers is known for and that are considered standard features are found on the Strike.
It’s really important that you choose the right snowboard but just as important to make sure you choose the correct accessories too. Before making any purchases it’s a good idea to know the basics.

Let’s start with a look at the different types of snowboards. There are three main styles – free ride, free carve, and free style. Love to perform those jumps and get the crowd oohing? Then you want a board that is classed as free style.

The length of your board is also important. There are two lengths to consider your height and weight as well as your riding style. Heavier people need to be longer and preferably stiffer.

The board width is also important. If you have bigger feet you want a wider board but really tiny want a narrower board. You can tell if your board is the correct width just by looking at your boot. If your boot is flush on the edge when you are in your riding position the boards right.
