Summary

The Moss 50 Swallow takes a bit of getting used to. But once you find the balance point and how to turn the board it is a pretty aggressive carve board. It likes to make surfy turns all over the mountain. The effective edge extends all the way through the swallow tail so it feels pretty locked in, and you can carve it all the way through the tail. If you get the carve far enough back the swallow tail flexes and springs you forward into the next turn.
