Never Summer Proto Swift Snowboard 2027 - Men's

Camber Profile

• Triple Camber Hybrid – A rocker-dominant hybrid profile with three camber zones that creates two high-pressure rocker sections and makes efficient use of the entire edge. It combines powerful response and stability with effortless float, playfulness, pop, and a forgiving feel.

• R.I.P. Edge Hold Technology – Integrates high-pressure points into the board profile to increase edge grip and stability without the drag of traditional serrated edges, delivering smooth, consistent edge pressure through carves and variable conditions.

Flex

• Flex Rating – 7/10
• Dampness Rating – 8/10

Shape

• Directional Shape – A freeride-focused directional design built for powerful turns, stability, and float.
• Volume Shifted – Moderately volume-shifted with a shorter effective length relative to its width, allowing riders to size down a few centimeters while maintaining surface area and stability.
• 20mm Taper – A significantly narrower tail helps the tail sink naturally in soft snow while improving float and maneuverability through powder.
• Early Rise Nose – Adds lift at the front of the board for improved flotation and smoother performance in deeper snow.
• Extended Transition Area – A flat section between the end of the camber zone and the tip/tail rise that smooths turn initiation and enhances powder flotation.

Core

• PowerSurf Wood Core – Combines a high percentage of lightweight Paulownia with Poplar and Birch through the center and Poplar along the sidecut edges. The strategic wood blend balances low weight, strength, and torsional rigidity.

Laminates

• Swift Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix – A precisely stitched carbon layup strategically integrates carbon into the board's construction for targeted response, stiffness, and energy.

• Bi-Lite Fiberglass – A lightweight glass fiber matrix that delivers freestyle and freeride performance while maintaining durability.
• STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass – Pre-hardened, pre-tensioned fiberglass with elastomer stringers between the glass fibers for increased strength, edge hold, response, and durability.
• RDS 1 Damping System – Extensive laminated damping layers use elastomeric rubber along the effective edge to absorb vibration, improve edge hold, and increase stability at speed.

Sidewalls

• UHMW Sidewalls – Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene sidewalls resist cracking in cold temperatures while adding damping around the metal edge.
• P-Tex Tip/Tail Protection – UHMW polyethylene extends into the ends of the board to protect the core from impacts while absorbing residual vibration.

Base

• Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base – Never Summer's exclusive high-performance sintered base uses an optimized amount of graphite for exceptional speed and durability.

Edge Tech

• Power Grip Sidecut – Uses multiple radii and strategically positioned contact points to increase edge grip while maintaining smooth turn initiation and stability.
• Full-Wrap Metal Edge with Aluminum Tail – Full metal edge construction with an aluminum tail section for durable protection around the board.

Topsheet

• Co-Extruded Polymer Topsheet – A lightweight, fiber-backed thermoplastic topsheet designed for durability and resistance to scratches and chips while providing added surface grip.

Additional Features

• Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers – Positioned beneath the binding areas to absorb shock and vibration, improve high-speed stability, add cushioning, and reduce foot fatigue.

Binding Compatibility

• 2x4 Inserts – Standard 2x4 insert pattern provides precise stance adjustment and compatibility with bindings using standard or mini discs.
