Here comes ACT's review on Amplid's hightech machine, the Soulmate:
This mid-range freeride fish is lively and fluid in transitions on soft snow, but loses its qualities on frozen snow. In powder freeride, the sensations are top-notch.
The Soulmate is in keeping with Amplid's freeride philosophy, with its directional shape and focus on progressiveness and stability, but with a softer centred flex.
The feel in powder is top-notch. Long strides are fluid, and you want to go fast and launch with your heel. The transitions from one edge to the next are pleasant. On hard snow, it doesn't have the grip of the top-of-the-range models, so it's best suited to all-terrain riding.
