Never Summer Benchmark Snowboard 2027 - Men's

Camber Profile

• Original Rocker Camber Profile – Never Summer's patented hybrid profile combines rocker between the feet with camber under the bindings, delivering effortless float, smooth turn initiation, dependable edge hold, and balanced all-mountain performance.

• Early Rise Float Mechanics – A longer early-rise nose improves flotation in powder, slush, and variable snow while creating smoother, more predictable turn initiation.
• Extended Transition Area – Flat transition zones between the camber sections and tip/tail rise create fluid edge transitions while improving float in softer snow.

Flex

• 6/10 Flex Rating (Medium) – A balanced medium flex delivers stable carving performance, playful versatility, and dependable control across changing terrain.
• 5/10 Dampness – A lively feel with enough vibration absorption to remain composed when conditions become rough.

Shape

• All Mountain Directional Twin – Directional twin shape with a 10 mm taper and 1/2-inch setback provides improved float and freeride confidence while maintaining balanced handling.
• Power Grip Sidecut – Multiple sidecut radii create additional contact points for dependable edge hold while maintaining quick, predictable turn initiation.

Core

• PowerSurf Core – Lightweight Paulownia is strategically combined with Poplar and Birch through the center of the core, with Poplar along the sidecut for an ideal balance of strength, torsional rigidity, durability, and reduced weight.

Laminates

• Carbon Max Laminate Technology – Advanced carbon matrix construction above and below the core maximizes response, energy transfer, torsional rigidity, and overall strength without unnecessary weight.
• Bi-Lite Fiberglass – Lightweight fiberglass construction delivers responsive all-mountain performance while maintaining excellent durability.
• STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass – Pre-hardened, pre-tensioned fiberglass reinforced with elastomer stringers enhances strength, rebound, edge hold, and long-term durability.
• RDS 2 Damping System – Rubber Damping System 2 absorbs vibration while maintaining the lively response needed for versatile all-mountain riding.

Sidewalls

• UHMW Polyethylene Sidewalls – Highly durable sidewalls resist cracking in cold temperatures while improving vibration damping and impact resistance.
• P-Tex Tip/Tail Protection – UHMW reinforcement at the nose and tail protects the core from impacts while helping absorb residual vibration.

Base

• Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base – Never Summer's premium graphite-infused sintered base delivers outstanding speed, durability, and long-lasting wax retention.

Edges

• Full Wrap Metal Edge – Full perimeter steel edge increases durability and impact resistance for long-term reliability.

Additional Features

• Co-Extruded Polymer Topsheet – Durable nylon/polyester topsheet resists chips and scratches while providing extra grip underfoot.
• Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers – Dampening pads beneath the bindings reduce vibration, improve high-speed stability, and minimize foot fatigue.
• Blower Stance Inserts – Additional insert positions allow riders to set their stance farther back for increased float and reduced back-leg fatigue on deep powder days.

Size Chart

Weight ranges are general recommendations—riders slightly above or below can still ride the board comfortably based on style and preference.
