Camber Profile
- Contact Camber – Low-rise camber between the bindings with rocker in the tip and tail, offering improved edge hold and response while maintaining a forgiving, catch-free feel.
Flex
- 4/10 (Medium-Soft) – The medium-soft flex provides a playful, forgiving ride, offering plenty of responsiveness for turns and tricks while remaining easy to maneuver. Ideal for riders who want to progress without feeling locked into a board that’s too stiff.
Shape
- True Twin – The True Twin shape ensures identical tip and tail lengths with a centered stance. This symmetrical shape offers equal performance whether you're riding regular or switch, making it perfect for freestyle riding and tricks in the park.
- Twin Diamond 3D Shaping – The Twin Diamond 3D Shaping lifts the contact points in the nose and tail, reducing edge catches and enhancing float in powder. This design also allows for smoother turn initiation and a more playful ride in all conditions.
Core
- Stomp Core – The Stomp Core is a lightweight blend of Poplar and Paulownia, providing a strong, stable core with a good strength-to-weight ratio. This core is designed for durability and responsiveness.
- Twin Single Bamboo HotRods – Bamboo HotRods are placed in the nose and tail to provide extra pop and energy, delivering a snappy, responsive ride for freestyle moves and ensuring a lively feel.
Sidecut
- True Twin Tri-Radial Sidecut – The Tri-Radial Sidecut provides smooth, consistent turn initiation with a wider radius in the nose and tail and a tighter radius underfoot. This design ensures that the board performs equally well in both directions while offering smooth, controlled turns.
Laminates
- Triax Glass (Top) – Triax Glass laid at three angles above the core adds torsional rigidity and improves stability at higher speeds, ensuring precision and control for freestyle and all-mountain performance.
- Biax Glass (Bottom) – Biax Glass laid at two angles below the core makes the board forgiving and playful, perfect for easy presses, smooth landings, and fun freestyle moves.
Base
- Impact Base – A low-maintenance, durable base designed to absorb impact and provide excellent glide, making it ideal for park laps and all-mountain exploration. It’s built to withstand tough conditions and provide long-lasting performance.
