Top All Mountain Snowboards 2022-2023

The following 10 boards have been selected as my picks for the top all mountain snowboards for the 2022/23 season.

Each board is given a rating out of 100 for easier comparison.

Price has not been considered in the ratings.

Of the 38 different all-mountain boards that I rated:

O.k. let’s get into the top 10.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #10=

Board: Arbor Shiloh Camber

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Semi Locked-In

Smart rating score: 87.2/100

>>See Full Review

Starting off the list at #10, we have the Shiloh Camber.

It's a great all round resort board that can rip carves, is good at speed, but also rides well slow - and great for jumps.  

If you're looking for an all-mountain board that is camber dominant (but not too aggressive) and don't often see a lot of deep powder (or have a separate board for that), the Shiloh Camber might be right up your alley.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #10=

Board: Yes Typo

Flex: Medium (4.5/10)

Feel: Stable but playful

Smart rating score: 87.2/100

>>See Full Review

  *HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION

The Typo is the easiest going, most playful ride in this list. It's also got a very strong freestyle flavor and you could make a case that it's just as suitable being called an all-mountain-freestyle board. 

Whilst it's not the fastest or carviest board in this list, it's nice and easy to ride, really quick edge-to-edge, butters super easy and can be taken anywhere on the mountain.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #10=

Board: Capita Mercury

Flex: Medium-Stiff (6.5/10)

Feel: Stable and semi-aggressive

Smart rating score: 87.2/100

>>See Full Review

At the other end of the scale from the Typo above, the Mercury is the most aggressive ride on this list (but still not aggressive enough to make the "aggressive all-mountain" list - so not ultra-aggressive by any means). 

But it's still something that you can slow down and play around on to an extent.

Whilst not the most buttery or jib friendly, the Mercury more than makes up for it with it's prowess for speed, carving and jumps - and pretty good in the deep stuff too.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #8

Board: Rossignol One

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Stable and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 87.8/100

  *HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION

>>See Full Review

The Rossignol One (formerly One LF and before than One Magtek) is one of those boards that personifies do-it-all/one board quiver. Wherever you take it on the mountain, it doesn't let you down - and whatever style you want to ride, it obeys. 

And if you tend to ride hard/icy conditions a lot, it's particularly good at navigating those.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #7

Board: Bataleon Thunderbolt

Flex: Medium to Medium-Stiff (6.5/10) 

Feel: Stable and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 89.6/100

>>See Full Review

New to this list for 2023, the Thunderbolt is the stiffest equal (with the Mercury) on this list and is the most directional (but not enough to quite call it freeride). But despite being a little stiffer than the average board on this list, the Thunder Bolt is still capable of slashing and being playful when you want it to. 

But then when you want to ride a little more aggressively and bomb, it can accommodate that too. 

Where it might lack compared to others on this list in butterability and switch riding, it makes up for it with it's ability at speed and in powder and has the uncanny knack of combining stability at speed with maneuverability at slow speeds.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #6

Board: Slash Brainstorm

Flex: Medium (5.5/10)

Feel: Stable but playful

Smart rating score: 89.6/100

>>See Full Review

And the #6 all-mountain snowboard on the list – the Brainstorm by Slash.

The Brainstorm has the unique combination of being both great for getting playful and slashing around with also being really well suited to powder, but at the same time rides switch really well. 

And just across the board, there are no weaknesses with this board, whether you're cruising the groomers, getting in the trees, surfing the pow or hitting the park.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #5

Board: Lib Tech Terrain Wrecker

Flex: Medium (5/10)

Feel: Semi-Loose, on the playful side

Smart rating score: 89.6/100

>>See Full Review

The Terrain Wrecker is a snappy, energetic board, with great, easy pop that's really fun to rip in the park, on the groomers, through the trees and when things get deep.

It's centered along the effective edge, giving it a twin-ish kind of feel, but along the length of the board there is quite a bit of setback, off setting that twin feel with a more directional flavor, particularly for powder. 

If you prefer a more playful all-mountain board, but one that is really versatile and can take you anywhere and do anything, the Terrain Wrecker should be high on your list.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #4

Board: Nitro Team Gullwing

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Stable (ever so slightly on the looser side of stable) and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 89.6/100

>>See Full Review

The Team Gullwing, coming in at #4, does really well at achieving a great balance between aggressive and playful, and the balance between being damp and smooth but also snappy.

It's very consistent across various terrain and capable for any style - as any good all-mountain board worth it's salt should be.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #3

Board: Bataleon Goliath Plus

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Stable and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 90.2/100

>>See Full Review

New for 2023, the Goliath Plus is a souped up version of Bataleon's Goliath. 

There's really nothing that wasn't fun on the Goliath Plus. It strikes a beautiful balance between park, groomer and off groomer. A beautiful balance of being good when ridden fast and when ridden slow and all round just excels everywhere on the mountain and in any style you want. 

It leans ever so slightly freestyle, but really it's a do-it-all, one board quiver that rips everything, everywhere.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #2

Board: Jones Mountain Twin

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Stable and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 90.2/100

>>See Full Review

A mainstay on this list over the years, the Mountain Twin is extremely consistent across all categories. It’s the definition of ride-everywhere, do-everything.

This is a board I've always been comfortable with everywhere on the mountain and it has a super consistent feel across different conditions and different riding styles.

If there was a picture in the dictionary for "do-it-all" a picture of the Mountain Twin would be all that was needed.

ALL-MOUNTAIN BOARD #1

Board: YES Standard

Flex: Medium (6/10)

Feel: Stable and in between aggressive and playful

Smart rating score: 92.1/100

  *HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION

>>See Full Review

The Standard has changed quite a bit over the years and it really has evolved to be the Standard by which all other all-mountain boards are measured against, IMO. 

You can still get aggressive on this board and lay down a good carve but it’s also great for jumps, spins, riding switch and it's also surprisingly buttery. And to top it all off, it rides well in powder too - particularly so, when you set your bindings up in the slam back inserts. 

Whenever I ride this board, I feel confident and amped for everything that I can throw at it whether there's powder or ice, whether I take it in the park, cruise or bomb the groomers, explore the trees or seek out what ever side-hit or drop I can find.
