UPDATE: Check out our review of the 2019/2020 KORUA Tranny Finder here
Until the KORUA Otto came along, the KORUA Tranny Finder snowboard was the most conventional offering from Nicholas Wolken & Stephan Maurer’s brand. It’s great fun for carving, obviously, but its strengths don’t stop there.
The KORUA Tranny Finder has a setback camber profile with a long rocker section towards the front. This is ideal for powder, as it’s easier to keep the nose out of trouble, but it also makes for smoother turns on piste. You don’t need to treat this one as a precision tool, so you can afford to get a bit more creative as you descend.
“Whether it’s pillows or slushy banks, the shape gives you a lot of options”
You can afford to downsize a little, as the KORUA Tranny Finder is pretty beefy through the waist. Whether it’s pillows or slushy banks, the shape gives you a lot of options, so whatever the conditions you’ll find something to take this to. On piste you can engage the whole sidecut to get a quality carve, or you can press the hell out of the wide nose and tail. It’s all good.
If you’re a carving purist then this isn’t the KORUA for you – the rest of the range has you well covered. But if you like your Eurocarves with a side of slush-slashing and maybe even some park laps, the KORUA Tranny Finder should be on your radar.
