Endeavor Pioneer Womens W27 Snowboard

Being someone who typically dislikes boards with too much rocker at the tips (last two rides have been a full camber nitro team pro, and a Burton custom camber)... I have to say this board really hit a sweet spot for me. A little wider, but still nimble in the bumps, passable pow float, upgrading to outstanding if you set the bindings back a bit. Tonnes of rebound/power from the torsional stiffnes a triax layup brings, but still decently nimble at lower speeds. Currently riding with a pair of union ultras on it, it carves, it bombs, it pops, it butters, and despite having some other choice boards in the lineup, I keep coming back to this one. On super slick steeps, I do sometimes miss the earlier feedback from a full camber board, but this thing hasn't let me down yet when I just trust it. It's versatile too.

Quite simply the best all-around board on the market. Tons of pop, fast base, carves well, floats on powder, handles well in the tight trees. You name it, this board kills it. Combine that with one of the coolest minimalist graphics I've seen in years and you can't lose. There's a reason all the reviews are so glowing, it's worth the hype. If you're reading this, buy one!

This board is so slick. Great pop, great flex, totally has your back in the park, but so capable all across the mountain. I’ve been lucky that in the few weeks I’ve had it I’ve been able to ride on slush, hard pack and powder, and it’s definitely held it’s own everywhere. Shoutout to the channel system for making slamming back the bindings super easy for when you get hit with some surprise pow.

Also, special mention for the graphics. This board looks so good in the flesh, both the top sheet and the super simple base just look classy, and definitely turn heads. Like riding piece of art. Love the board, looking forward to seeing what other collabs Endeavor come up with going forward!

Love it.

I’ve already got a Clout and High Five, so didn’t NEED a third twin board, but have been curious about this since it launched and absolutely loved the Okan Uckun design so pulled the trigger…

My days of jumps & tricks are behind me, so I can’t speak that much to the freestyle side of this board, but it carves/turns GREAT as a freerider. While the 3D camber on the Clout was my favorite, this is just as solid - slightly different, but a great quality feel.

Got some pow in on this too, and was pretty impressive there too - especially with my bindings set perfectly centered. I’ve also got an Archetype and Ride Timeless, so this wouldn’t be my first choice on a powder day, but it certainly has what it takes to make a good potential quiver-of-one.

What more can ya say… Endeavor delivered again. 😎⭐️🍻

I have bean searching for a while a good freestyle board that I can use for jumps and in the same time on groomed terrain. When I tried it first time enjoyed from first run.

I have been riding another board for my pow board, but have been looking for that unicorn all-mountain freestyle twin for years since I wore out my Burton Antler.
This thing is the ticket. Tons of pop, very low swing weight, edge hold like the old pure camber boards, super nimble, and damp enough to be great through rough snow.
It excels at side hits, buttering, generating air off any little feature, floats well in pow, and surprisingly carves like a beast... the list goes on.
It is definitely a little softer than advertised. I’m on the 157W, rated for up to 230lbs, and even so it feels like a 5 or 6 flex. Not noodly, but definitely not stiff. So. Much. Pop!!! And such a lively feel. I love it. Good torsional flex for quick steering.

Looks like they didn't make 155 wide for 2020 but stoked to rip the shit out of it this coming season. Got the Color (now Ranger) 155 wide as well but way softer than this. Strapping in with Burton Malavita, feels solid but will see. Review to be continued.......

Other board in the pic is the Archetype 150cm (yes, smaller based on their weight recommendation) with Burton Genesis X.

The 159W is a great board for a 230# rider who is messing around on the hill. It has a surprisingly good foot in dry powder and is wickedly fast. I am happy with this board.

Twin and playful for most days
Set all the way back on pow days
So versatile

Great board. Although it is stated as a freestyle board, but I found it is actually more like a one for all board.
My own opinion:
Carving: 4 star
Groomed: 4 star
Park: 5 star
Freestyle tricks: 5 star
Powder: 3 star.

This was my first new snowboard in a very long time. I rode 30+ days a season until my mid 20s, and since then only go on a big trip somewhere good every few years. Don't like using rental gear. This board is snappy, carves well... does exactly what you want it to do. Very happy with it.

WOW!
I'm 57 and have been riding since 1989.
Being one of the first two snowboard instructors hired at Mount Snow, West Dover, Vermont I have ridden Burton exclusively my whole life. You get older and life gets in the way so I haven't been able to ride as much like I used to. I couldn't justify buying new equipment so my last purchase was 20 years ago. My kids are in their 20's and wanted dad to "put up or shut up" after hearing all my stories and looking at old pics so I decided it was time. I researched many manufacturers but always new Burton would be the one I'd go with. I came across Endeavor being "sister' to Burton and saw that the channel design was being used and came across a great deal on your site that I couldn't pass up. Not only did I get the Pioneer Bensen I also got an amazing deal on a jacket and pants!
Let me say that on my first run on cord I felt like I was 25 again! This board was very responsive and popped me from edge to edge effortlessly. I can't believe how technology has progressed so far since my last board.
As for the pants I didn't ever think I would find full side zips since my old yellow Burton padded knee pants! So warm and plenty of room. Sub zero day and only a pair of flannel pajama pants on underneath.
The only thing I would change about the jacket and pants is the pocket zipper should close in the up position with a small patch of velcro to keep the zipper from moving down.

All in all you have a new rider and with the family growing you will have at least 4 more soon.
Thanks!

Absolutely love the board.
Came from a flying v style camber, with this being my first camber deck.
Was worried about playfulness, however after reading up on the 3D camber and talking to their staff I figured it was worth a try.
Was well worth it.

Board still feels super playful, but the edge grip is insane (as expected).
The board is super poppy, though it took some getting used to preloading the tail.
It's also crazy light weight.

Only have a few cons.
First- the top of the board scratches really easy. Not a huge issue, but The clean black surface is already covered in white scratches, and I take really good care of my stuff- including cleaning the soles of my boots before I strap in.
Second- The base seems pretty fragile compared to any of my previous boards. I have more damage ater a week of riding than I did one 100+ days on my old burton. idk why, but it's a bit of a bummer.
Lastly- I'd be dope if they offered longer wide options for tall guys with big feet. I'm riding the 157 wide, and it feels a lil short at times (6'3, 215lbs).

That's it. Otherwise it's the perfect all mountain board.

Fedex dropped it off at 430, I was on the hill by 630, and in love with this board instantly. This thing ripped through chunder at top speed, buttered with a bit of effort, and pops so so nicely. You can crack ollies at speed and be confident youll land on a nicely held edge. It started to dump snow mid way through the session and the board felt great floating on top of the new pow. I can't describe how happy I am with my purchase. After demoing a BOD back in 2012, I always wanted to get on an Endeavor, and am so happy I did it. 10/10.

The board rides great! All terrains, slide back in the channel for the pow! The weight is noticeably that its light and carves for sure! Love the board and the feel!

Second to none.

Board is me first new board in I don’t know how many seasons. I am super happy with the channel system, the feel and fed back are unparalleled. The hybrid camber gives the board a skate like feel with a playful flex that is responsive and inviting.

I am looking forward to further bonding with this absolute joy of a board.

A lot of thought went into this board when designing it. You can tell that the moment you point it down the mountain. I got it for when the snow is poop and need to have something playful. Actually took it on a pow day and was very surprised how well it did. Highly recommend this board or any endeavor product if its as good as this deck. Probably will be riding many endeavor boards in the future! Buy this board!!!

The sidewall definitely reduces the chatter from uneven terrain and icy conditions

Good hold from the edges

Not too stiff that the board feels unforgiving but you definitely get a nice push out of carves

Very neatly packed and did a great job on delivery the package fast

I'm so happy that I decided to pick-up the Pioneer .. this board does it all so well and just handles amazeballs like nothing I've ridden from Burton or Endeavor+others (and I've had many set-ups last 25yrs - 300+ days)
yes at the very highest of speeds a stiffer chamber board does give more confidence but everything else this board just rocks ... I've never felt as comfortable riding fakie ..or riding chomp ..

Solid build, amazing graphic - Endeavor has come a long way in establishing its unique design in the industry

Rides like a dream on sidecuts and park, stomping every feature with a confident landing.

Overall very impressed with its initial performance, will see how durable it is
