Love this board! This is my first board! Having always used rental boards decided to buy this one based on reviews. Took about 3 runs to find the sweet spots on it but it’s a dream on the runs. I’m 5’ 7” 180lbs and got a 159cm. I consider myself an intermediate rider.

Thanks for the great rewiew! I am 5'8", 160lb. Which size should I take, 150 or 153 ? Mainly hard snow in our conditions in Sweden.

[robinsonlow]

great video, loved seeing yall actually riding the board! I'm 6'1" about 160lbs with gear, deciding between the 50/53, love trees but also am an avid powder seeker. What are you thoughts?

[davidstock]

Awesome review! This review was the reason why I’m buying the orca. I wanted input on size because I’m about to make my purchase. I’m 6’3 215-220 without gear and size 13 boot. What size would work best for me? I’m thinking 159. Any thoughts?

[joshdoppelt]

This board looks perfect! I am 5'9, 165 pounds. Would the 156 be alright or too big?

[neargrog]

Very tempted by this. I’m still riding my 2014 T Rice Pro which has been superb but I’d like to get something newer

I got my last board from you guys before the name change. I got the Jamie Lynn I wasn't happy with it. you guys took it back pro rated and I got the NS pronto 2 awesome board. You Guys are awesome always recommend your company. Im glad you are YouTube awesome. Oh is the Orca like the Pronto? Or the Orca better?

[alvarob]

Thanks for the review. Which one of these two did you guys enjoy the most, Orca or the Never Summer Harpoon? Any details you can share very much appreciated 👍

[BLAZEREN]

Hi there I’m 6”4 and 85-90kg size US13 feet what sizing should I go for on this board? Also what would I go for for in the newly released Golden Orca as well?? Thanks so ever much :D

[bostonalext]

Great review! This board looks sick...5'10, 135lbs, 9 boot: what size would you recommend?

[bladrunr]

Hi! I am 5ft6, 150lbs and have small feet, mens 6, 5. I am medium/advanced and like carving at speed, mostly grooming, occassionally powder but all mountain. I’ve beed riding a 159 board wich may be too long but 147 seems very short. What would you recommend?

[robbygrewal]

Hey, I'm 6'1 188lbs size 11 boot. Which size would you recommend for boarding out west? I'm mainly getting this for powder and tight trees. Great review and thanks!

[paulc]

I'm an intermediate rider looking for my first powder board.
Choosing between the Endeavour Archetype and the Orca, which one do you think is more intermediate friendly? Quicker turn in trees? Thanks!

[wojciechkubik]

What snowboard/bindings would be best for intermediate coming from Salomon Ace riding mainly groomers and rarely some pow and wants to progress with Quick Turns/carving/fast riding (no switch riding) ? What i found would be capita Mercury with malavitas/Cartel but im a bit overwhelmed by all those reviews and options

[druth]

Do you think it’s different enough from the Warpig to justify having both?

[benlavigne]

Hey guys! I have a 160 heritage now, but I’m looking for something more playful that I can butter on and that’s not quite as hard charging as the heritage but something stable at high speeds, something I can cruise through the park with. I love my heritage, just need something more playful sometimes. Thanks

[mushieslushie]

I had a Hovercraft 156. I bought it last minute before my trip to Japan and no Orcas were available. If I were to get this should I got 156 or 153? I generally prefer riding a shorter board for more maneuverability and normally ride a twin that is 152 but for a normal board that is considered to be very short. I'm 6' 150 or so lbs. Also how much different do you think the Orca will ride than the hovercraft?

[tianyili]

Hi can you suggest the sizes for my wife and me for Orca? I’m men boots 8, 5’10” and 167 lbs and my wife is women 7, 5’5” and 112 lbs? Many thanks!

[miloskostadinovic]

Hey ppl. thanks for review. I'm 6'3'' and around 190lb, what size should I go with? thanks again!
