2026 GNU Head Space Snowboard
The 2026 GNU Head Space is Forest Bailey’s creative twin freestyle machine, built to turn ideas into tricks and side hits into playgrounds. Its pill-shaped true twin design and traditional camber profile give it a locked-in feel for rails, jumps, and all-terrain trickery. With medium flex, Magne-Traction® edges, and a lightweight G Lite 2 core, the Head Space stays fast, poppy, and confident—whether you're in the park or painting lines through the streets. Topped off with Forest’s personal artwork, it’s made to ride with intention and expression.
