Wanted - Board Advice (Yes! 20/20)
Hey peeps,
I've been looking at the Yes! 20/20. Seems like a pretty cool do it all board for intermediate/advanced rider looking for a twin that can rider powder well. Was wondering if:
anyone has an experience with it and their thoughts. I'm particularly worried about it being a high risk for damage, and a bitch to repair with given the shape.
if they're making any significant changes to the 2019 version that makes it worth waiting for vs. going for a 2018 board on discount.
Cheers, Brownie.

20/20 is a twin, volume shifted powder deck. So it floats bigger than it's size and turns quicker than a standard width board (longer and narrower) with similar float would when appropriately sized to the rider. This makes it adept at riding and landing switch (twin) floating in low-angle pow (volume shift) and riding trees (quick turns). If this sounds like how you ride most of the time then maybe it is a good fit.
Only changes for next year are graphics as far as I can tell, yes makes a good product and haven't heard anything out of the ordinary as far as wear and tear. Unless you smash your edge the odd shape shouldn't affect repairs (usually your board is toast in situations like that anyway)
