i have the 08 riders choice mtx but i find it super heavy and not very strong :(

I de-tune my magna traction with a file, just slightly on the outer most portions of the 7 contact points. Have never caught on a rail (well one, frontside but it was a sketchy down). Great on rails, even multi-kinks. Smaller size = lighter weight when spinning. Actually I am going to stop giving this board praise because I don't want to see every east coast gaper one when I ride at home.

magna traction (mtx) works well in the pipe yes, but this board is also available with banana traction (btx, i.e. mtx w/ rocker [banana]). I rode this board 110 plus days last season (I'm an instructor in CO). Anyways, I would no recommend this in the pipe if you have btx. However, as it is a stiffer freestyle board, it allows you to ride a shorter board for jibbing and even powder. I am 6' 180lbs and I rock a 151cm.

this board is ok. magne traction helps mostly with pipe, reducing vibrations, and supposedly with hittin ice patches. if your a chill rider its a good board, but if you enjoy jumps, jibs and technical stuff, look elseware

banana rocker, the reverse camber

magne traction holds edge soo well but never gets in the way!

That's why you get BTX which kicks ass.
