Sierra Says: With parks offering such a wide verity of features, it?s a shame that more companies don?t offer a board that handles everything in the park. Academy combats this with the Propaganda. This is a board with a unique design that satisfies all the needs of a season jibber, but still lets you spread your love to all the features including jumps. Never shy away from a feature because you?re in the wrong board again. Available in regular camber and reverse camber, it?s pretty much everything you need in a park board.

Academy Says: Created for the intermediate and advanced freestylers who make jibbing a priority

Pros: stable, easy to control, nice flex
Cons: none!,

Experience: my buddy and i took a trip to liberty's snowflex setup, and he happened to have this board. i was aware that academy existed, but never really considered their boards. well, after one run i was pretty psyched on it. this board is low cost, feels like you have been riding it for years even when you first hop on it, and has a nice flex that is not too soft and not too stiff. i definitely recommend considering this board if your looking for a park board that is not a super noodle

(0) No

Name: Academy Propaganda Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Use: Butters,Jibs,Jumps,Switch Riding
Pros: flexy, poppy, buttery
Cons: doesnt float well in pow, sometimes not the best at high speeds , not the best for woods

Experience: great in the park a nice soft flexy poppy camber board. good for jibs and jumps. just had a powder day up at smuggs and it didn't float very well, also it wasn't the best in the woods, because its not the most responsive board.i dont know why it says 6.5 as the flex, because its really soft, its far softer than the burton dom (09), id probably give it a 2.5-3. it feels really poppy when ollieing. the edge on my tail sort of split off (this is my first season on the board) , and i'm epoxy&clamping it back on right now, but that same thing happened on my last board (at the end of its 3rd season)so it might just be something i do. anyway great park board, but maybe not the best if you want to do woods and take a lot of high speed runs, or do a lot of pow. over all awesome... in the park.

Helpful Review? (1) Yes

(0) No

Name: Academy Propaganda Snowboard Men's
Skill: Intermediate
Use: Butters,Jibs,Jumps,Switch Riding
Pros: very flexy, reverse camber , no catching!
Cons: probably too flexy for guys who mostly hit jumps,

Experience: I got hooked up with this board last season as a jib board, and primarily used it for street. Its a great rail board and is super flexy and makes presses feel great! I broke my Academy Rhythm do i took this out to the mtn and it really surprised me, it truned out to be a great park board and i didn't really have that much trouble hitting kickers. the board has pretty good pop and because of Academys BDR you will never catch an edge.

Skill: Intermediate
Use: Boxes,Rails
Pros: fun to ride, flexible but not a noodle, loooks sick
Cons: broke by mid january, customer service sucked,

Experience: i demod this board i guess you can say. it was my buddies board and i took a few laps on it. he mostly rides rails and hits the occasional 20 footer. but he slayed rails with this board and loved it. he actually one a comp at crotched while riding it. he never beat up on this board just took normal wear and tear. but mid january it craked across the tail and he sent it to academy and they kept saying theyd ship him a new one but he still hasnt got it yet. so take the risk if you want a super fun ride until it breaks than your screwed even if its under warranty

Pros: flex, pop, edge hold

Experience: This is one of my favorite boards. Flex is perfect for anything and everything, camber makes this board fly off jumps and it's just about perfect for presses, rails and boxes. is you spend a lot of time in the park, get this.

Pros: very light, super durable, really good pop
Cons: haha,

Experience: Yo this board is sweet, I've been riding the propaganda for a few years now. There's no other board like it, you can freestyle it in the park, on the mountain, or in the streets. I marked it as a board for someone with an intermediate skill level but the truth is anyone can ride it. It's easy enough for someone to learn on and it's fun enough for someone thats an advanced rider also. It's super flexy really durable, and has really good pop. You learn something new on this board everyday you ride it. I love this board and I'll never stop riding it.
