"POP!"
Pros: Jib Rocker for non catching boxes, POP!, Warranty
Cons: Sketchy edge hold on icy conditions,
Bamboo core delivers amazing pop. Jib rocker shape for non catching edges on boxes. Surprisingly handled well out of the park can throw down the turns without any worries of the board noodling up. On icy conditions the edge hold was weak and can get sketchy if you didn't adjust. Great 5 year warranty on core and park specific. it is going to be interesting to see if this core can hold up to more abuse but so far it can take it.

"great all around board"
Pros: great pop off big rollers, strong on rails/doesnt bend a lot, lightweight
Cons:
This board has a nice design with a light frame that is perfect for trails or in the park. I found it was good on long rollers and rollercoaster boxes. i had a very good season with this board and over time i realized how much i loved this board and its not too expensive so i would reccomend this board for anyone who likes park and black diamonds and especially to those who love the thrill of jumping and getting bigg air.

"AMAZING"
Pros: Medium Flex, Won't Break, Great for Park
Cons: Little heavier than some,
This board has the BamBOOYAH core with a 5 year warranty. 5 years is insane for a snowboard warranty. Its three layers of laminate Bamboo with TONS of Pop. No way this thing would snap.This board also has Jib Rocker. 80% flat, 20% rockered at the tip and tail. A lot of contact with the snow underfoot with the rockered tip and tail hgiving a soft, catch-free feeling. Recommended for a progressing freestyle rider.

"super naughty"
Pros: fast, soft flex, awesome designs
Cons: heavier board,
really fast board, not the fasted board, but it definitely has pep, demo'd it in japan whilst staying with some back packers, K2 is a great up and coming brand. i urge everyone to at least try this board. so much room to move and not an aggressive ride, no real strain, just easy cruisy riding.

"Nothing but the best"
Pros: Strength, Flex, POP!
Cons: None,
This board offers nothing but the best in the business. I switched to the Fastplant mid season last winter from a Jibpan. The flex and pop took one time out to get used to. I was popping over the rails that first time out, but after that I was sold. I was popping an extra 3 feet off table tops and popping up to higher rails with ease. I highly recommend this board for any park/freestyle junky.

"Natural Feeling, and Just Plain Fun"
Pros: Great Pop, Solid Feel, Simple to ride
Cons: None,
I bought this board on a whim late-season, because I got a ridiculous deal. From my first run on the board, all I could think was Wow.
The board truly has everything I look for. While being slightly stiffer than other rockers I have ridden, don't let this set you back. The board has a great flex profile, and allows you to put the bend you want/need into it. What I was most surprised at was the pop. It's just there.
I found myself feeling completely natural on the board, and just riding. I don't know how else to describe it. I didn't have to think about applying extra pressure to my ollie as on some other rockers, I didn't have to be more careful at speed due to instability, it was just comfortable doing whatever I felt like doing.
All in all this board seems to live up to the hype, and I can assure you that the other boards in my quiver will definitely be seeing less time on the snow now that it has joined the ranks.

"Cool deck"
Pros: Very Soft, Stable, Catch Free Jibs
Cons:
I just demo'd this board with the k2 hurrithane's and i must say that was a very fun board to ride, in the park it handled very well due to the softness of the deck, but also on the regular groomers it was very stable at high speeds, which is very hard to come by in a park oriented board.

"sick board"

Cons: known for breaking if flexed to much,

"Game changer"
Pros: Pop & flex + 5 year warranty, Jib rocker, All around versatility
Cons: Not expensive, but not cheap either, Bamboo core heavier than others,
After having my eye on this board for a while, I finally took the plunge and picked it up. First impressions after slapping my bindings on and fooling around on the carpet: this thing has serious flex. Even prior to breaking it in, it obvious the board loves to bend, but you can tell its not just a cheap noodle (which is obvious based on K2's aggressive 5 year no-snap warranty). The decision maker for me to get this board over the cheaper WWW rocker is all in the core technology that makes this board superior for park riding, yet stable at high speeds and suitable for all kinds of riding including some backcountry. I'm certain I can keep this as a primary board and scrap the rest. From what I've read, this board is supposed to be a game changer, once I get it up on the hill this weekend I will confirm it.

"Sick board"
Pros: Amazing POP!, Rocker, Flexy
Cons: Delaminated (for me), It might be too rad for some people, Cost :/
This board is so awesome! It's Perfect for everything I live in Minnesota so I have not tried it on big groomers, powder or back country but I love it for buttering around boxes its really poppy for jumps and it is a great all around board for a intermediate to expert level snowboarder that has the money.

"AMAZING!"
Pros: great pop, warranty, will not snap any time soon
Cons:
man where do i start with this... a buddy of mine bought this board last week and he's been talking about how much flex it has and i thought he was lying so he let me use it and i did a flex test on it and couldnt believe how tough that board was! but anyways, the board is perfect especially with the 5 year warranty on the side :) the flex is beyond what any park rider could want without having any worry of snapping or splitting the board. its perfect for jibs, REALLY nice and easy to butter and press and of course it handles on rails and about any size jump. so yea if u want a board u can rely on, this board is the one :)

"Bambooyah!!!!"
Pros: Poppy, Damp, 5yr Warranty
Cons:
Absolutly killer board. Super damp, holds an edge great at highspeeds, even in an icy halfpipe. Butters smooth and pops like a skateboards, thanks to jib-rocker profile. Probably the best board i demo'd last year.

"K2 Fastplant"
Pros: Flex blandito (soft flex), Agarre del canto que flipas (amazing edge grip), Le da a todo (polyvalent)
Cons: I have no cons,
La fastplant me pareció una tabla muy suave y fácil de llevar, tal y como era de esperar con una tabla con rocker, aunque funciona muy bien a gran velocidad. Es viva, con un buen pop y en conjunto muy divertida. El canto agarra muy bien a la nieve. Con una garanôtia de 5 años es una perfecta tabla para cualquiera. Desde novatos a expertos.
Thefastplant board seemed a very soft and easy to carry, as expected with a rocker board, although it works fine at high speed. It is alive with a good pop and a whole lot of fun. The edges holds the snow well (it grips perfectly). With a warranty of 5 years is a perfect table for everyone. From beginner to expert.
Enjoy it
