Shape/Profile: Directional Camber

Flex: Mid-Stiff

Base: Sintered WFO

Details:

• Freeride Snowboards
  Designed for steep, off-piste terrain, freeride snowboards excel in aggressive riding, making them ideal for more advanced riders who want to tackle challenging conditions.

• Powder Snowboards
  Built for deep snow, powder boards typically feature a directional shape with a tapered tail, offering better float and ease of ride in fresh, deep snow.

• Tapered Directional: The tail of the board is narrower than the nose, enhancing control and stability in deeper snow, improving float in powder, and providing smoother turns. This shape is ideal for freeride and backcountry conditions.

• Directional Flex: With more pop in the tail and a stiffer nose, this flex design makes the board easier to control in all conditions, whether you're charging down a mountain or navigating technical terrain.

• Directional Camber introduces rocker in the nose, providing extra float in powder while maintaining the power, response, and edge control of traditional camber. This results in unmatched precision and stability.
• The Burton Channel replaces the traditional mounting system with a channel for front and rear inserts. This allows you to fine-tune your stance width and position, providing more flexibility in your setup. While the Channel is compatible with most major binding brands, it performs best with Burton EST bindings.

• Laminate: Triax with Carbon I-Beam
  Triax fiberglass is layered above and below the core to provide a versatile flex and consistent response, suitable for all types of snowboarding. A lightweight Carbon I-Beam backbone is added to the Triax fiberglass layer to increase pop and responsiveness.

• Super Fly II 700G Core: Uses stronger, lighter woods in targeted areas to provide more pop and strength while reducing weight.

• Dualzone EGD: Aligns the wood grain along the heel and toe edges in two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the core, providing consistent edge hold and strength.

• Squeezebox: Features thicker, more powerful sections combined with thinner, more flexible sections throughout the core, enhancing energy transfer for a snappy, stable ride.

• Base: Sintered WFO
  The Sintered WFO base, standing for Wide F!#@ing Open, is crafted from an ultra-absorbent, high-density sintered material infused with specially formulated wax. This base is durable, fast, and performs well across a variety of conditions.

• Balanced Freeride Geometry
  A setback camber and stance-centered sidecut make this board feel like a twin when riding flat, while still providing the tight turns and effortless float typical of a directional board.

• Super Sap Epoxy
  Super Sap is a bio-based resin that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% compared to conventional petroleum-based epoxies, making the board more environmentally friendly without compromising performance.
