Our verdict
The Snake 2022 is Black Crown's veteran all-round attacker: an even-balanced EVA build scoring power 78 against control 70 with fair terms (comfort 69, tolerance 68) and honest handling (71). Weight documentation is incomplete on old stock. Value 76 reflects four seasons of drift. The card remains genuinely competitive with current mid-tier attackers, which is the vintage argument as usual: same essential performance, smaller invoice, shrinking stock. For improving attackers who like the boutique strike and do not care what year the paint is from, the old Snake still bites politely. Inspect first.
This older Black Crown frame remains a legitimately balanced attacker: real power with fair terms across comfort and tolerance, and handling that's stayed honest across four seasons. It's a boutique strike at genuine clearance money now. Weight isn't confirmed in our data, and being old stock, inspect it thoroughly — the current Hurricane line refines the same recipe if you want the newer version.
