Features:

Triax: Fiber tech core that increases board life and durability for all riders ripping park and streets.

Popster Booster: Add carbon stringers to the standard popster and you get all the energy from under your feet radiating on the tip/tail maximizing pop.

Slingshot Sidewall: Carbon inlays that help load and release energy. It provides reactivity under the feet.

Quadralizer Sidecut: Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.

Aspen Select Core: Every single wood strip is hand selected to ensure unparalleled core quality and lightness.

Freestyle Edge Bevels: From detuning the tip and tail to a 2-degree edge holding tune throughout the key parts of the sidecut, back to a 3-degree bevel between the feet. This delivers the complete blend of edge hold and forgiveness on rails.

BA MD Fiberglass: Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.

Medium Stone Finish: A medium structure finish that improves our fast sintered base glide. Quicker in all snow conditions, from cold morning corduroy to spring slush.

Sintered Base: An industry standard for quality sintered base materials. Provides a moderate balance between the speed created by a hard surface and good wax retention.

FSC Certified Wood Core

4×2 Inserts

Flip Flop Base: Three base colour options to minimize p-tex waste. Order may be filled with either colour.

Profile:

Camber

Precision, control and pop.

The side profile of camber looks like a rainbow. Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Adopted from the bend of alpine skis, camber snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop due to the bend in the board, providing better jumping characteristics. Advanced riders tend to prefer this bend, especially for hard carving and high-speed riding. Even when it comes to softer park snowboards, camber boards deliver exceptional pop and control.

Shape:

Twin

A completely symmetrical shape, which thrives in a variety of freestyle situations. At the core of its design, the twin shape features an identical nose and tail shape, which provides an identical feel and predictable maneuverability whether riding regular or switch. Although originally developed with park riders in mind, twin shapes have also grown to be embraced by many all-mountain riders that like to bring a skateboard style riding out of the park and onto the entire mountain.

Flex:

4 – 5 (Scale 1 – 10)

Versatility at its finest. A Jibber’s delight.

---

Base:

Sintered

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