Hi shay,

just an add on, I am riding a 155 Mid life Artist, it is great at everything, But I find it very difficult to press. So I am looking to replace it with a 152 sierra or 154 indoor. Could you help me out please?

nb:I am about 133lbs and 5’7.

thanks

Firstly great review Shay!!

Just wondering since the tech between the sierrascope and indoor survival is so similar, what exactly is the difference between the two? Because I really can’t make up my mind between the two… especially when Sierrascope is cheaper than indoor….

BTW, I ride a bit of everything, all mtrn, park etc

I have been on the sierrascope all season and I LOVE the board. It is GREAT mix of all mountain and park just like you said Shay. I have all kinds of boards and find myself taking the sierrascope out in all conditions minus pow.

Glad you liked the board Shay! Mine came in the mail and I’m going to be taking it with me to Mammoth, CA tomorrow.

It’s dumping there right now (~8ft by Fri) and I was wondering if you think I should setback my stance on the Sierrascope? Because it’s a true twin I don’t know how a setback will play with its sidecut. It’s the 156cm, and I’m about 165lbs.

I’ve never been in powder this deep before so it should be quite an experience. Even though this isn’t a powder board I hope the flat kick helps keep its nose up.

Shay, great review!

Sierrascope is dope!!! I love the carbon x-string between the feet! I ride the 152 as well and love the playful feel without being too noodley! As you mentioned, it has a great edge hold but when i hit crud/varied conditions, I do get thrown around a bit. I weigh about 176 lbs so if you’re looking for an all rounder, the 155 would probably be perfect!

oh should have added it handles just as good in powder/chop … It slices the powder quickly but once you get used to that it becomes a fun ride

love this board! Hope to grab another just to have in reserve before they sell out.
