Never Summer Proto T3 FR DF Ultra Wide Snowboard 2026

The 2026 Never Summer Men's Proto T3 FR seamless blends brand new Prototype 3 tech with the fan favourite Proto FR to create a hard charging board that loves to be ridden all over the mountain. This aggressive snowboard excels both on and off piste thanks to the tapered directional shape, stiffer flex pattern, and Triple Camber Hybrid profile, making it incredible responsive and able to handle whatever is in its way. The most innovative snowboard just got even better.

Board Type: All Mountain-Freeride
All Mountain snowboards are versatile boards that excel across various terrains, from groomed runs to off-piste. These boards offer solid edge control and responsiveness, making them a great option for riders who want one board to do just about everything.
Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.

Flex: 7/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.

Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Advanced snowboards are stiffer and more responsive, designed for high-speed control, precision riding, and handling challenging terrain or tricks.

Shape: Tapered Directional
A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.

Camber Type: Triple Camber Hybrid with R.I.P. Edge Hold Technology
Triple Camber Hybrid has an overall central rocker shape while featuring a camber zone in between this central rocker, creating two high-pressure rocker sections on each side of a middle camber. Triple Camber Hybrid increases edge efficiency, with the primary edge hold starting at the board’s center. It provides outstanding responsiveness, stability, and complements the high-performance engagement of the two cambered zones beneath your feet. The overall rocker shape preserves effortless float, a playful and forgiving ride, incredible edge hold, explosive pop, and remarkable butterability.

R.I.P. Edge Hold Technology offers unmatched versatility, providing effortless glide in powder and response all over the mountain while delivering precision for deep carves. It boosts edge performance for maximum stability and control in any condition, with easy edge tunes. Unlike traditional serrated edges, R.I.P. integrates waves into the base, creating high-pressure points for smooth, drag-free rides and consistent pressure on edge, ensuring a balanced, confident ride.

Width: Standard, Wide, Drag Free
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Wide boards are for those with large boot sizes and provide extra flotation, reduced drag, and never feel clunky or cumbersome underfoot.
Drag free boards are made for those with the biggest size boot, typically US 14+, they provide enough width to minimise heel and toe drag.

Sidecut: Power Grip Sidecut
The Power Grip Sidecut features a combination of multiple radii to create additional contact points along the edge, improving edge grip. A flat section in the middle area forms a wide contact point when the board is flexed, while allowing it to remain stable and avoid catching when unbent. Two shallow radii on either side of the flat section add extra contact points, while deeper radii near the tips of the board enable quick turn initiation and provide the final contact points.

Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
