Strengths: I got the 2010 Hybrid rocker 168. This thing rocks! I have ridden every thing from Ice to powder with it and the thing is brilliant. I weigh 106Kg`s and fitted some Ride alpha bindings. The board is crisp, responsive and very fast in a straight line. the rocker makes the 168 turn and control like a smaller board but makes it float in powder. the board is stiff and durable which makes it fun to ride at speed. Recommend the MFR 2010 hybrid rocker for an intermediate to advanced rider, who is looking for a non-mass-produced and well made board like I was.
Weaknesses: these are tips rather that weaknesses: Because the rocker makes the board quick to respond it not for beginners. you need to maintain an edge on hard pack or icy conditions as the rockered board will get a bit moody if your not on your game and completely in control.
