Yes, the wide waistline is engineered for deep powder ploughing but what sets this pow stick apart from the rest is its versatility.This thing excels on both soft and hardpack terrain thanks to the serrated outline for exceptional grip on icy slopes and effortless edge hold in steep conditions for precision carving.
