![]() ![]() Of course I then realized I did that and totally felt like an idiot for it but the good thing was that it rode switch as it does normal. When I first got it, I mounted it up switch and ended up riding it switch which rode exactly how it did regular. Switch: The omni is interesting in the shape, it’s directional in that the nose is longer than the tail but it’s twin in that the radial sidecut meets in the center. I had some fun playing with the omni in the park, it wasn’t catchy on the boxes and I felt comfortable going into boardslides on it (still dialing them). The flex made it still playful when it came to butters and presses, not as easy as the Signal Park Rocker for obvious reasons but still capable of fun. Pop: It’s not as poppy as I was expecting and I just played with it on some rollers but didn’t stand out in that arena. I rode this board in the superpipe and the board handled the icy walls just fine. It handles speed quite nicely and despite some early season conditions the base looks brand new. I’ve taken it freeriding and never felt any chatter or vibrations, it absorbed rougher terrain and when I took it out on a snowy day with low visibility I could rely that the board would handle it without being able to see bumps ahead of time. Stable: The omni for it’s size has held up very well for stability when handling the mountain. It felt very comfortable staying centered on the board and riding that way, if I was leaning back it didn’t feel as good but that could have been me and my riding. The edgehold was surprisingly a good grip on some of the icy spots and I never felt uncomfortable on it with how it handled, this might me from the additional contact point at the transition from rocker to camber. It won’t catch with how the reverse camber is set up and the mix of camber/reverse gives you good stability for freeriding. This board can rally on edge through short and long radius turns, you can really carve with this board and feel stable in the carve. Turning: This is where the omni excels, groomers and carving. I didn’t ride it in deep powder but in smaller amounts of powder, the reverse camber helped float and felt comfortable while staying centered on the board. The omni’s reverse camber so it has camber between the feet, rocker from your feet out to the tip and tail. ![]() I actually found this board a easy and predictable ride for the mountain. It’s stiffer longitudinally with a softer torsional flex that gives you really quick edge to edge response when riding and the longitudinal flex helps keep the board stable on the mountain. Setup: I rode the Signal Omni with my Union Force SL’s and my Bonfire Geo boots.įirst Impression: Definitely not what I was expecting but a nice surprise on signal’s take to reverse camber.įlex: The omni isn’t as stiff as some other reverse camber boards I’ve ridden, it’s on the softer side compared to them but it isn’t a soft flexing snowboard. Snow Conditions: Mixture of weather with hardpacked groomers to overcast on new snow.
