Tech
Camber Profile
- Triple Camber Hybrid – Three micro-camber zones create powerful edge grip, stability, and energy return, while rocker between the feet adds float, forgiveness, and smooth turn initiation. Ideal for freeride riders who want confidence in steep or variable terrain.

Flex
- 5/10 (Medium) – Balanced flex offers stability at speed while remaining maneuverable enough for technical descents, trees, and mixed terrain.
Shape
- Directional Volume Shape – A volume-shifted directional build providing maximum float in deep snow, increased stability at speed, and effortless drive through turns.
Sidecut
- Power Grip Sidecut – Multi-radius sidecut with five distinct contact points that provide aggressive edge hold on firm snow and smooth transitions when carving at speed.

Core
- PowerSurf Wood Core – Engineered with strategic hardwood and lightweight wood blends for enhanced power, stability, and durability while maintaining an energetic ride feel.

Laminates
- Carbon Max Laminate Technology – A carbon matrix running tip-to-tail and edge-to-edge increases torsional rigidity, pop, and precision across steep or technical terrain.

- STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass – High-tension fiberglass reinforcement that boosts strength, response, and longevity.
- Bi-Lite Fiberglass – Lightweight, forgiving fiberglass layup providing smooth flex and reliable torsional stability.
Base

- RDS 2 Damping System – Strategic dampening layers reduce vibration and chatter without dulling board feel, enhancing control in choppy or steep conditions.

- Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers – Rubberized stabilizers located underfoot absorb impacts and smooth out uneven terrain for a more controlled ride.
- Low-Profile Nose/Tail – Reduced swing weight improves maneuverability, making it easier to adjust turns and maintain control at speed.
