Camber Profile
- Surfy CamRock – Combines extended rocker in the nose with traditional camber through the rest of the board for effortless float, smooth transitions, and drive out of turns. The shorter tail allows back-foot steering and a surf-like flow in powder and natural terrain.
Flex
- Flex Rating: 2/5 (Mid-Soft) – Playful and relaxed for a flowing ride in pow, yet responsive enough for carving and side hits.
Shape
- Directional – Setback stance and shorter tail promote natural float, stability, and control through variable snow.
- Evolution Nose – 3D curved nose rolls smoothly edge-to-edge, reducing drag and enhancing flow through turns.
- Drop Out Tail – Swallow-inspired tail increases agility and control for deep, tight turns while staying composed on edge.
Core
- Master Core – Refined blend of poplar, beech, spruce, and paulownia balances low weight, durability, and lively response.
Laminates
- Biax Plus Fiberglass – Enhanced biax weave improves energy transfer and board control while maintaining a smooth feel.
- Pop Carbon – Carbon reinforcement from nose to tail boosts pop, stability, and chatter damping without excess weight.
- Premium Sandwich Construction – Advanced layup with carbon stringers for stronger pop, quicker edge transitions, and improved vibration absorption.
Base
- N-7000 Hybrid Base – Proprietary blend that fuses extruded durability with sintered hardness for speed, wax retention, and easy maintenance.
- Die-Cut Base – Pure-color base material pieced together for crisp, long-lasting graphics.
Topsheet
- Absorbnid – Vibration-dampening top layer that filters chatter for a smoother, less-fatiguing ride.
- Glossy Finish + Overprint + Translucent Color – Layered artwork and high-gloss finish add depth and showcase construction details.
Inserts
- 2x4 / 6 Insert Pattern – Six rows at 2 cm spacing allow precise stance width tuning and full binding compatibility.
