KORUA Shapes Otto + Snowboard 2023 Korua Shapes

The ultra-light Otto Plus is a freestyle-focused carving board with a twin-like shape and a slightly stiffer flex and torsion than the classic version. Inspired by our ambassadors James and Weli, who are known for their creative carving and park riding, the Otto Plus excels at everything from side-hits to transitions, and charging all over the resort. With its light-weight and responsive build, this board is loaded with pop and ready for a wild ride!

Profile: Camber
Terrain: Resort/Pow
Response: Medium

Features:

• Dynamic multiaxial full carbon construction
• Super-light bionic core design
• Stringer reinforced paulownia wood
• Highest grade grapite Perlatec base material for a lighter, faster, and more responsive ride.

Profile: Float Camber

The Otto Plus features Korua’s Float Camber, which curves into a rocker shape in the nose. This profile helps you stay on top in deep powder while maintaining speed throughout the turn. The camber under-foot offers grip and stability on hard-pack and in variable conditions, while the early rise in the nose allows for an easy initiation of turns. We recommend trying to ride this shape with more weight on the front foot.

Shape: Directional

A smooth, reliable ride.

Directional shapes generally feature a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail. These shapes thrive in an all-mountain environment, as they possess the ability to ride more smoothly than their twin-tip counterparts and behave more reliably in variable snow conditions, anywhere from choppy snow to deeper powder. More twin-looking directional shapes where the difference between nose and tail appear minimal will perform best as crossover freestyle snowboards for those looking to still access the park, while more exaggerated differences will excel for additional float in deep powder.

Flex: 4-5 (Scale 1 – 10)

Versatility at it’s finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.

Base: Sintered

High-end base material that is harder, more durable, and faster than extruded bases.
