2027 GNU Banked Country Snowboard
The 2027 GNU Banked Country is Temple and Cannon Cummins’ refined all-terrain freeride machine, built for riders who demand premium performance from powder days to high-speed resort laps. Redesigned with a slightly longer and more stable contact length, the Banked Country delivers exceptional float, precision, and control while maintaining its playful and surf-inspired personality. GNU’s aggressive C3 camber contour provides powerful edge hold and response, while the exclusive directional Progressive Magne-Traction® design focuses grip and control from the center of the board through the tail. Finished with Carbon Power Bands, a lightweight G Lite 3 core, and a fast Sintered Knife-Cut base, the Banked Country is engineered for riders who want to charge every condition with confidence.

What's New?
For 2027, the Banked Country features a redesigned shape with a longer, more stable contact length while maintaining its smooth-entry floaty nose, powerful directional construction, and Progressive Magne-Traction® edge technology.
