2025 Yes. Basic Snowboard
Returning to the fundamentals.
In YES.'s quest for improvement, they thoroughly examined how to enhance the Basic. After testing numerous alternatives, they consistently found that the original shape and ride of the Basic stood out above the rest. Instead of altering something that already excelled, they chose to retain all the remarkable attributes of the Basic while enhancing its visual appeal. Furthermore, they have fine-tuned the CamRock to offer a more subtle feel, providing the forgiveness you desire without compromising the necessary drive. The UnderBite outline has also undergone refinement, amplifying the board’s arc, grip, and overall carving experience across every design where it is applied. As the originator of it all, the Basic represents the genesis of snowboarding excellence. Experience the YES. Basic, where snowboarding’s fundamental elements come together harmoniously
*Base Colors May Vary
Camber Profile
- CamRock 3-4-3 – The response of camber with the floatability of rocker. By combining camber and rocker you allow the board to be both responsive and floaty. Camber between the feet acts as a spring keeping the contact points on the ground throughout the turn for better edge hold. Once compressed the camber will accentuate the rocker and lift the nose out more allowing it to float.
Flex
- Flex Rating – 5/10 (1=Soft,10=Stiff)
Shape
- True Twin – A completely symmetrical outline houses a centered stance that is effective on edge, a tip and tail, and is identical at both ends of the board.
- NEW Directional Twin UnderBite – By indenting the edge under the feet a couple of millimeters, UnderBite acts as a serrated knife, redistributing rider weight and input power. This creates more leverage over the edges of the board for easier turn initiation, better edge hold, greater control, and smoother turns.
Core
- Full Poplar – YES.'s baseline core for tip-to-tail woodcore snowboard construction. A core that strikes a predictable balance between durability and consistent flex and lightweight feel.
Laminates
- Biaxial Glass
Base
- Extruded – This material is formed by extrusion and is softer than sintered bases. At the speeds many riders take, this material is actually quicker than sintered bases when waxed correctly. It retains wax better because it's more porous and is easy to fix with a P-Tex stick if it gets scratched.
