If you’re looking for a board to tear up the whole mountain like it’s a park, then check out below our list of the best 10 All-Mountain Freestyle snowboards for 2022-2023.
As is tradition here at SnowboardingProfiles.com the boards will each be given a rating out of 100.
To give some perspective of the ratings:
OK so here’s the top 10!
ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #10

Board: Capita DOA (Defenders of Awesome)
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium (6/10)
Rating: 84.8/100
Kicking off the list in # 10 is Capita's DOA.
Performance for the buck, the Capita DOA is great value for money. But price wasn't taken into account when creating this list, so it's here on merit.
The DOA is on the more aggressive side - but just on the aggressive side of the middle of playful and aggressive. Not aggressive enough to be included in the aggressive freestyle category but one of the more aggressive on this list.
It's stand out feature is jumps, where it's great pop and light snappy feel will have you launching from whatever you can and you may not be able to wipe the smile off your face as you glide through the air and stomp back down to earth.
Check out the video below for more details on the DOA

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #9

Board: Lib Tech TRS C3
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium (5.5/10)
Rating: 86.0/100
*HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
Next up we have the TRS slotting in at #9.
Like the DOA at #10, the TRS is one of the semi-aggressive options in this list, courtesy of it's C3 camber (almost full camber). But whilst it's the kind of board you can ride quite aggressively, it's not super-aggressive and also allows you to slow it down and play around, when you want to as well.
And like any all-mountain-freestyle worth it's salt, it's great for jumps, sidehits, spins etc.
Check out the video below for more details on the TRS

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #8

Board: Bataleon Whatever
- CA
Flex: Medium (4.5/10)
Rating: 86.5/100
At #8 we have the Bataleon Whatever. Alongside the Jones Tweaker (see #7 below), the Whatever is the most playful on this list.
It's pretty soft flexing and nice and slashy and playful. It's not a bomber, but it does feel pretty good on a carve, especially for its flex. The 3BT helps to make it better than average in powder too.
If you're looking for a playful, slashy, buttery but versatile snowboard, the Whatever is worth considering.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #7

Board: Jones Tweaker
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium (4.5/10)
Rating: 87.6/100
New for Jones for 2023, our #7 offering, the Jones Tweaker, is Jones' first true twin snowboard.
When you ride this thing, you don't feel like your on a Jones, it is something quite different from them. It's pretty soft and really playful. Equal most playful on this list with the Whatever (see #8 above).
If you like your riding playful and creative and want to take that to the whole mountain, including but not limited to the park, the Tweaker is a really fun option.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #6

Board: Niche Crux
- CA
Flex: Medium (5.5/10)
Rating: 87.6/100
In at #6, we have the Niche Crux.
It's probably the most aggressive ride in this list, but it's still not uber aggressive. Like the other semi-aggressive boards in this list, the Crux knows how to take things down a notch and chill when you're feeling like doing something more casual/playful.
But when you want to bomb and start railing carves, the Crux has got your back. One of the best carving twins on the market. But it still handles jumps and sidehits with aplomb and will have you seeking out everything you possibly can to launch off.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #5

Board: GNU RC C3
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium (6/10)
Rating: 88.2/100
*HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
The big brother of the Rider's Choice (see #2 on this list), the RC C3 packs more camber and along with it more pop than the RC. It has different strengths and weaknesses, but overall is still a wicked board for all-mountain-freestyle riding.
It's a little more aggressive than the Rider's Choice, but it's still not something that you have ride hard all day. You can slow down with it and be a little more casual and playful on it when you feel for it.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #4

Board: Never Summer Proto Synthesis
- CA
Flex: Medium (5.5/10)
Rating: 88.8/100
And the #4 board is the Never Summer Proto Synthesis.
The Proto Synthesis is one of the better boards on the market for riding the whole mountain like a park - and at the same time being able to carve and bomb well too.
Outside of powder, it's one of the most versatile boards going around.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #3

Board: Salomon Assassin
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium (5/10)
Rating: 89.3/100
The Assassin is a very versatile board that does a bit of everything-everywhere, really well.
It's also nice and light and lively and whilst it's something you can take in the powder when it calls for it, it really excels when it comes to getting air - be that in the park or on natural features.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #2

Board: GNU Rider’s Choice
- CA
- UK/EU
Flex: Medium
Rating: 89.9/100
*HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
The Rider’s Choice received a new core for the 2023 model, which has changed its personality a bit. It's a little stiffer, a little damper and a little less playful.
This has made it a little more well-rounded to previous iterations, with an improvement in carving and in terms of stability at speed. It's now a little harder to butter and jib with, but you can still do those things.
And when it comes to jumps, it's still near perfect.
The Rider’s Choice is also the best equal on this list for hard and icy conditions, so if you encounter those types of conditions a lot, but still want something that feels playful enough, then this is a great option for you.

ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #1

Board: Yes The Greats
- CA
Flex: Medium (6/10)
Rating: 92.1/100
*HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
And in at #1 is the YES Greats Uninc.
A board this stable at speed and with the kind of carving ability it displays, has no right being as buttery and playful as it is, when you want it to be.
Not a powder hound but if you’re looking for an asym twin deck you can carve up the whole mountain with, when you're not hitting every natural hit you can find and lapping through the park, then you might have found your match in the YES Greats.
