Between my 154 Powder Racer and 155 House of Powder, what's one more "Powder" board? 8-)

I seem to either have powder boards that I can ride all mtn or park boards that I can ride all mtn.

Though, I am interested in what a Koura Pencil would do. Wish they had a 154 to 156 size in that one.

Nitro slash 156
Ride warpig 154
Lib orca 156
Weston japow 159
Jones flagship 162
Nitro banker 159

Thoughts on the Flagship? Always been intrigued by one and the dude that does a lot of the art on the Jones boards lives in my community so that makes he favor getting a Jones deck. Thinking that or maybe a mind expander.

Still perpetually on the hunt for my ideal DD floaty-freeride board with carving dna... seemingly a very common type of board these days, but hard to find one with all the right "math." Broken record, but virtually just want the orbit 57 with cadet tip & tail outside contacts.

Mid 160s
Stiff 8/10
125-130 edge
260 waist or so
Mid 8 sidecut
Camber or a little early rise
Enough tail kick
Mild taper ~5-10mm

Alchemist 64W is close, but not actually as directional as it seems, and just like a bit larger radius/etc. Some Koruas are kinda close too, but don't want the heavy taper or quite that wide of waist, otherwise I'd already have one. Even thought about revisiting the hovercraft, but not a fan of spoon, Jones, or the flat tail. Tur Buteo has been recommended too, but I'd want the 62 - apprehensive about the waist and DDing a 9.5 radius

Orbit will continue to be a love of mine, just want a more powdery nose shape & overall longer length.. otherwise the "math" is right on. Next year's transmission is on the want list.

K2 Passport 163? Maybe not quite as stiff as you're looking for (they call is 7/10, but never handled one in person) but everything else seems to line up.
