Hey Everyone I messed up the width over the inserts at 1:32 - Sizing. It should instead be Front Reference: 27.0 Front Set Back 26.5 Back Reference 26.8 Back Set Back 27.5

I rode the Cadet at a demo day last season and loved it! I even bought one and rode one spring day on it. Looking forward to next season.

Hi Biesty, great review, as always. But could it be that you have accidentally mixed up some of the specs? You stated the width of the Front insert ref stance as 26.8 cm, which sounds correct. But the width at the Set Back Front Insert doesn't sound logical at 27.0 cm, as snowboards get naarrower towards the waist. With the rear inserts, on the other hand, it is surprising that the Back insert at ref stance is stated as 26.3 cm, but a few centimeters behind it on the Set Back Back Insert is 27.6 cm, which would mean a difference of +1.3 cm. I could imagine that the Set Back Front Insert width of 27.0 cm was mistaken for the Back insert at ref stance width of 26.3 cm. That would be more logical, at least in terms of the usual specs of a board. Sounds pretty nitty gritty, but in practice it makes a big difference for me, as 26.3 cm on the back insert ref stance would be too narrow for me, whereas 27.0 cm would be perfect (0.7 cm is a full boot size). Could you please measure again? Thx!

Great review man! Did you get on the Deep reach at all? I have the cadet from 2021 and love it.
@thegoodridesnow13 күн бұрын
Yes. Rode the Deep Reach 156 on groomers and a little pow. Got the 162 in some pretty deep somewhat light Mt. Bachelor low angle pow. The review is coming but might be a little while. Have a few more in the que ahead of it. I liked it in powder and thought I would like all that camber on groomers but it took a lot of back leg weight to keep the tail from washing with the way's I had it set up at +27/+9 and then +18/+3. Neither helped and I felt rear leg burn on groomers. In pow though, it felt exactly the opposite.

@@thegoodridesnow Thanks James. Interesting.. I guess it’s a powder first/groomer second kinda board. Looks sick for Japan though!

Hey Beastie, what would you say are some comparable boards in terms of ride and tree performance? Yes Hybrid? Standard? Love to hear how they compare.
@thegoodridesnow22 күн бұрын
I would say the Strata is comparable, So is the Jones Flagship to a lesser extent. Amplid Souly Griail, Stranda Descender, Burton Hometown Hero, Nidecker Megalight and Ultralight. Not really the Standard or Hybrid. You can always filter by "Freeride" and then use the comparison tool on The Good Ride to really get into it. thegoodride.com/snowboard-reviews/?mens=1

Hi, thanks for the review. Can I ask how’s the torsional flex got this please. And how’s the horizon compared to this?
@thegoodridesnowАй бұрын
It feels on the medium side vs. the medium/stiff tip to tail flex. Horizon review coming soon. I have comparisons on Patreon and YT members here. www.patreon.com/thegoodride but softer and feels less directional. Better if you ride switch more or like a more centered ride.

Did Davey ride this? I’m a size 12 boot 195lbs and wanted to see if the 162 would be an appropriate size without toe or heel drag.

Again - thanks for these smaller brand reviews! So - imagine a beautiful day dumped more than a foot the night before - do you grab Powgoda or Cadet?
@thegoodridesnowАй бұрын
Really depends on your riding style. If you can only have one board that can act like 2 go Cadet. Or if you like a more tapered/directional/set back daily driver go Powgoda.

I'm hesitating between this and the Capita aeronaut for a one board quiver to do everything (carving, powder, Park) when travelling. I tend to go towards the Capita because i have 11us size boot but only weigh 150 lbs so 156w seems perfect. The United Shape seems really good though and i like the minimalist style, do you think the 158 would be wide enough (i have Burton kendo 11us) ?

@@thegoodridesnow i'm 5'10, expert level currently living in Québec. I ride a Capita indoor 55w 22/23 most of the time, i love how dynamic and nimble the board is and so playfull at the same time, perfect for days mixed between Park and slopes. On ice or if i only want to ride groomers i ride my gnu Gremlin 55w. Strong carver, hold so well but feel quite boaty and heavy sometimes. And for the occasional powder days here i ride a GNU Nuzoid 55. I also have a Capita Scott Stevens 57 for jibbing and end of the season wet snow.

Looking at getting a Cadet and curious what size would be best for me? I'm 145 lbs and size 8 US boot. I am leaning towards the 154 but worry if the 257 mm waist is too wide for my boot size.

So it really depends on what make/model/year/size board you ride now. If you are used to a board a similar length but narrower waist you should be ok. For me it was super weird. I'm riding the 158 (Size 9, 190lbs, 5'10") and the 26cm waist feels like its 25.4cm. I don't know what they are doing outside of the posted specs (specs often lie) but I haven't yet felt like I'm on a wide board. Even in uneven snow or tight spots which is usually where a wider board starts to fatigue guys with our boot size.

Pretty different rides. Cadet is more directional anf way more set back on board. Initiates turns faster. I like how the Otto carves better though.
