Prior Bx vs Prior Pow Stick
Snowboards comparison — 2018-2019 season
Compare two models
How they compare
the Prior Bx leans more freeride, while the Prior Pow Stick leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Prior Bx has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Prior Pow Stick uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel).
