Tech
Camber Profile
- Triple Camber Recurve – A three-zone camber system blended with recurve shaping for explosive pop, unmatched edge control, and powerful energy transfer. Rocker between the feet adds float and smooth turn initiation, while micro-camber zones grip through steep, technical terrain.
Flex
- 6/10 (Medium) – Responsive and stable for freeride lines and high-speed carving, yet forgiving enough for all-mountain versatility.
Shape
- Directional Volume Shape – Enhanced volume and directional taper work together to provide increased float, drive, and stability in deeper snow and freeride terrain.
Sidecut
- Power Grip Sidecut – A multi-radius sidecut featuring five contact points for outstanding edge hold on steeps and firm snow, paired with smooth, confidence-inspiring transitions.
Core
- PowerSurf Wood Core – Precision-crafted blend of lightweight and hardwood stringers for strong energy transfer, stability at speed, and a responsive flex pattern.
Laminates
- Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix – Strategically engineered carbon reinforcement delivering powerful torsional rigidity, boosted pop, and enhanced carving performance.
- STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass – High-tension fiberglass layer offering superior strength, response, and long-term durability.
