| When I bought the board I had read some bad things - the boards break the finish cracks, the bottom sticks to the snow, ect - and I was super nervous. But you know the story, it was a great buy on brociety and i had looked at the tech info on the HKD before and been interested. So i held off till i had ridden the board a day before posting a review.
ia m coming from a Burton Cascade 165 to the DW HKD 158. Opening day on Mt Hood Meadows was fairly epic. Groomers, wood runs and tons of pow in my stashes. I dont ride rails, do a backside anything or jib much. I did ride all that was available, popped a few tree stumps and such and hit a little air up to 3-4 feet. The board handles like a dream on pow. Carves like a hot knife through buttter. It was a little slow when tossing it around through the trees, but definitely functional. I had given the board an excessive hot wax so on the groomers it was fast, very fast.
After all this, a good long day, I brought the board home and inspected it. I picked up a couple dings from trees but that happens. I also got a couple small scratches on the finish. No cracking, no breaking, no sticking. Obviously I cant say it wont happen, but I believe that it will be fine. I love this board. It floats almost as well as burton through powder and does everything else better. I paired it with some Flow M9 bindings and the pair kept me happy all day long.
Recommend this? H3ll YES. As others have said this is not a park, jibbing board. Anyone who thinks otherwise cant read. |

| amazing board to ride on handles fantastically and hands down the best board ive ridden. EVER!
but it didnt last after about 4 weeks riding on it i got some pressure cracks a week after that they were all the way across the board behind the back binding and a couple of days after that landing a 65fter a bit flat the board snapped on the tail where the cracks were and also behind the front binding. which was the weirdest thing ive seen. however i still stand by dc as it was the best board ive ridden and dc are very new in the board making business. hopefully they have fixed up a few of the defects and the '10 model will be awesome i know i'll get 158 aswell as my replaced 153 cause it was the best |

| I rode this board for 6 days up in Quebec Canada at Mont Tremblant, and several other hills in eastern Canada, and It rules, totally satisfied, board is super fast with good flex, and overall feel is awesome, highly recommend this board as I was hesitant being that DC was new to boards, this board is as good as a Burton comparable if not better. |

| Rode this baby for a few days at Stowe. I thought this board was just right. Just flexible enough to throw through tight turns, and yet, stiff enough to feel rock solid at speed. And you WILL get a lot of speed on this baby.
The problem is, I snapped off the nose on this thing after landing on it off a kicker. It was fun while it lasted. Snowboards should be sturdier than this. |
