Ladies Choice

An exceptionally well-rounded board that will give you the confidence to ride harder and faster, regardless of conditions. Billy goating through tight trees, steep & deep, pipe, park, snake runs, or side hits - it will all be worthy and more fun. The Ladies Choice has been my daily driver for 5 seasons and counting. Year 1: I was an intermediate-advanced rider, spending most days in the park. Now, I am primarily in the side/backcountry and love it just the same. I credit my progression over the years to the predictability and versatility of this board. Set back your stance on deeper days & enjoy the ride.

I've been riding my Gnu Ladies' choice for one-and-a-half seasons now. It has been a super fun and playful ride. I've been bombing down the groomers, hitting some rails and jumps, riding halfpipe and some powder aswell. So, you can ride anything with it. It holds the edge well in icy conditions. But when the slopes (or lift lines) are bumpy, you have to be very alert with this board. It is very wobbly, in comparison with a stiffer camber board that stays on the line you'll set it. The only thing I'm disappointed with this board is how fast the board has given up, it's like a noodle now and also the back edge snapped in two (and then three more times)... Super fun board but unfortunately doesn't last long.

I went on this board today on groomed trails + deep powder. It was extremely fun! I used to have a jibbing park board with high flex which made it hard to carve, go fast or keep the nose up in the powder. This board feels much more stable at high speed, very easy on powder, and still very versatile on side jumps (it is wickedly poppy). I haven’t tried any reels or big jumps yet.

I've ridden this board for a couple of days now and I'm completely in love! The rocker makes it easy to maneuver without catching an edge, but once you get it on an edge it can carve super well. I took it over some small boxes and rails without any trouble, and jumps feel extremely smooth. I definitely recommend this board!

For reference, I'm 5'1" and 110 lbs so it's difficult for me to find a woman's board. This board has helped me with my progression. Two things though: (1) the topsheet chips so easily! (2) I always have to keep a centered stance.
