Versatility at its 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.

Why Get A Wide Board

Choosing between a wide snowboard and a regular snowboard depends on a few factors. If you have larger feet, a wide snowboard is definitely worth considering. It offers a wider platform that prevents your boots from dragging in the snow during sharp turns, ensuring better stability and reducing the chance of catching an edge. This is especially important for riders with boot sizes of 11 or larger. Wide snowboards also provide more surface area, which can enhance floatation in deep snow and improve overall control. So, if you want a more comfortable and stable ride, a wide snowboard may be what you are looking for.
