$369.99 Intermediate to Expert All Mountain Freestyle Continuous Rocker Twin Like Directional Shape In 2010 The Forum Star was Forum's cambered attempt at all mountain freestyle and for the price this isnt a bad choice. Forum is a freestyle focused company that makes boards that are much stronger in the park than the mountain. In 2011 Forum added continuous rocker that they call Chilidog. We'd like to see more edge hold but it's not a deal breaker. Just don't get this if you ride in harder conditions or like a lot of edge hold. The ride is loose, forgiving and very playful. It's a typical well made continuous rocker board. For 2012 Forum added a little more spring to the ride but it's still very similar to the 2011 model. So the Star is a good board for those who live in the park and mainly ride in good condtions.
The Good Ride Take on Continuous Rocker This is where it all started or re-started in the Mid 2000’s. In the beginning Continuous Rocker was mainly for park and powder. Today it's still pretty much made for the same 2 functions. There are a few boards that are made for all mountain to freeride use but most of those have migrated to hybrid shapes. Continuous Rocker helps you maintain a catch free forgiving ride which is excellent for beginner riders or those who ride at slower playful speeds through the park. Almost every one we have tried has to be on edge or it will wander giving you that squirrely feeling like a skateboard with loose trucks. The biggest issue is it isn't very stable flat basing or one footing in firmer snow. Continuous rocker is for the most part really poppy and helps you generate your own air. There are many styles of this shape so this could be a good choice for beginners, park rats and people who only ride powder.
The universe is said to contain around 70 sextillion stars, but you can’t front board on a celestial body of hot gases that radiates energy derived from thermonuclear reactions in the interior, can you? Well, you can on this Star. With a twin-like shape and a Women’s ChillyDog profile for a stable and forgiving ride, taking this board in the park is an out-of-this-world experience.
Women's ChillyDog
Women's-specific forgiveness. Finally a rocker built from the ground up with the female rider in mind. Providing tailored stability and predictability in a forgiving ride, this continuous rocker is built for women's bodies. Women's ChillyDog features a slightly lower rocker height and a softer core profile between the feet to accommodate female riders.
Forum Star 2011
Luxury is born. The Star is a twin-like board for women who think the mountain is a playground and know that they own it. Featuring Women’s ChillyDog for a stable and forgiving ride. Whether you’re sessioning the park, cruising the stock run for jibs, or just bombing down the hill, this board will provide more support than Victoria’s Secret.
Whether spending a week at Vail or just maxing out the value of an unlimited pass, the Star is famous for its model-like persona. The shapely twin-like board goes fast when it wants, rides confidently in steep terrain and sticks the landings when she feels like going big.

Game on.
