					<description><![CDATA[When it goes to magazine reviews, the Good Wood test is the most popular and longest running snowboard test. The Good Wood Test was designed to give the best performing park and all-mountain boards the chance to standout among the rest of the boards. For 2013, boards are split between men and women, over and under $450 in all mountain and park categories. TWS made a point of explaining the testing, how a board is scored and who the testers are. I&#8217;ve ridden over ten of the boards that made the list for this year. Standout boards for men&#8217;s all-mountain were the Capita BSOD, Lib T.Rice, TRS and Greats. For men&#8217;s park, the Salomonder and Ultrafear were favorites when I rode them in years past. For the women&#8217;s results, I completely agree with all of the all-mountain boards and can see how the other boards won for park. The best way to interpret this list is see what works for you and try it for yourself&#8230;your own personal test matters more than anything else. Top Ten Men&#8217;s Boards Under $449 Burton Super Hero (park) Burton Parkitect (park) Salomon Sabotage (park) Capita Ultrafear FK (park) Capita Defenders of Awesome (park) K2 [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In the grand scheme of snowboard tests, the Transworld Snowboarding Good Wood test is the longest running and the most well known test that defines a list of boards to consider each season.  I&#8217;ve tagged along with the Good Wood Test a couple times to see how they test each snowboard and got to see the Mammoth GW Test in action last spring.  Here&#8217;s the list of what boards made the cut for this season and my thoughts on the list. For 2012, boards are split between men and women, over and under $400 and all mountain and park categories.  When I first started hearing of the boards that won, I was happy to see which boards got recognized.  I think it&#8217;s a list most like my own taste for reviewed boards from this year and past reviews.  For the men, the Stepchild Powder Sucks, GNU Park Pickle/Riders Choice, Lib Tech Attack Banana, TRS and Box Scratcher have always rated high in reviews and been boards that are very popular with riders.  For the women, the Arbor Swoon, GNU B-Pro, Roxy Eminence, Smokin Vixen, Arbor Cadence were all boards that offered up great choices for the female riders depending on [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Since 1987, Transworld Snowboarding has been at the forefront of snowboarding for print publications and a name that snowboarders turn to each day.  It wasn&#8217;t a difficult decision to decide to visit the major publication and see how things go down behind such an influential name in snowboarding.  Transworld was the third stop on the second day of the adventure with a brand new office they just moved into, they are minutes away from many other action sports companies houses in So-Cal. I received a call from Annie Fast to meet them for lunch before heading to the Transworld office.  When I showed up to grab lunch with Annie, I certainly wasn&#8217;t expecting to see Bryan Iguchi, Seth Huot, Zac Marben and Gigi Rüf standing there in line with Annie.  Just another typical day for them and an extraordinary one for me.  We were joined by a crew of people from Camp of Champions also visiting the office and a couple of the Volcom crew on hand with the team riders.  After lunch, Annie and I made our way to the office.

					<description><![CDATA[[singlepic id=4838 w=400 h=112 float=] Each year in the Transworld Snowboarding resort poll, the readers get to choose their favorite mountains.  You fill out the survey on the resorts you&#8217;ve ridden and what you think about them based on their parks, lodging, nightlife and overall score.   Each year I submit my vote to play a role in what comes out ahead of the others.  This year I&#8217;ve ridden 13 different resorts from Colorado, Utah, Washington and British Columbia.  My best 3 resorts which were Breckenridge, Copper and Whistler/Blackcomb (guess they count as one).  These were based on the questions asked, if it was based on powder it might be different. Both Copper and Breckenridge I gave an 8 for overall resort rating, both mountains have a lot to offer from powder to parks for all abilities.   I gave Whistler/Blackcomb a 10 for overall resort rating.  I mean really 2 mountains in one, is hard to beat let alone it&#8217;s Whistler/Blackcomb.  A vacation in Whistler/Blackcomb is a snowboarder&#8217;s dream.  I&#8217;ve never been let down by a vacation there and every year I have to go back.   It might be a surprise that I didn&#8217;t vote for my home [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For the past 11 years, the Transworld Good Wood Test has set the standard for snowboarding board tests, consistently offering riders a glimpse into popular boards for the next season. While no test is perfect, the Good Wood has worked each year to dial it in and make improvements to the testing format. There have been many debates on if the Good Wood Test is legit and represents a true test of snowboards. I set out to find out the truth. In September, I talked with Annie Fast over the phone about the Good Wood test and received an invite to come see it done in person at Breckenridge. I accepted knowing that seeing it done is more valuable than being told how it&#8217;s done. On Thursday, April 16th I made the trek to Breckenridge to witness the Good Wood Test for 2009-2010 boards as they completed their 4th day of testing boards. The Good Wood Test is a collaboration between HCSC and Transworld to put on the test. [singlepic id=5547 w=400 h=267 float=] Each day the riders have a line up of boards selected for them to ride. This eliminates the last minute stress of finding a board and [&#8230;]]]></description>
