2026 GNU Recess Snowboard Package Mini
The 2026 GNU Recess Package mini is purpose-built for the smallest shredders ready to slide, turn, and grow with confidence. With a soft flex, easy-riding flat to early rise contour, and smooth radial sidecut, this board helps young kids link their first turns and build control in a fun, catch-free way. A true twin shape makes it easy to ride both directions, while Magne-Traction® edges give just enough edge hold to feel stable even in firmer snow. Each board comes pre-mounted with size-specific Speed Strap bindings—making this the ultimate learn-to-ride setup for kids.
