The Amplid Creamer is the haul-ass freeride gun that blends Big-Mountain ambition with everyday practicality. Its imposing dimensions and shovel-like nose are the trademarks of a snowboard that bulldozes through chop and dances over powder. Now armed with Viscodamp too, its handling of hair-raising descents and sketchy conditions verges on aloof. An accomplished resort charger, but wired in Big-Mountain environments, the Creamer will soon have you yearning for higher mountains and wilder terrain.
