"The Pencil is a true all-round shape for effortless turns in all types of snow conditions. The slight swallowtail offers you some playfulness out the back, but still has the stability and torsion you need to hold an edge throughout the turn. Its taper makes it easy going from edge to edge, and the shape generally feels more reactive and short than what it appears. The pointy nose is designed to keep speed coming out of deep powder turns, keeps the spray out of your face, and also allows a smooth initiation of turns. The Pencil is a classic line favourite for riders looking for that one board that does it all."
