Description

The GNU Upgrade is a freestyle and all-mountain directional twin hybrid that represents 30 years of Mervin manufacturing expertise. Built as a high-tech resort freestyle slayer, this board features precise harmonized pressure and technology mapping that puts contours and stacks of features exactly where they need to be for optimal performance.

Featuring directional triple serration Magne-Traction technology, the Upgrade focuses control at toes and between feet while leaving tip and tail simple, clean and catch-free. The directional triple curve profile blends features with a medium entry, mild middle and deeper aggressive tail sidecut for enhanced control, carving and float in soft snow.

Built with C2 contour hybrid profile combining a short rocker between feet, tighter poppy camber under the back foot and a longer floater camber extending forward to the nose, the Upgrade delivers the perfect balance between playful and stable performance. Micro rolled nose at contact provides catch-free freestyle balance and float in soft snow while maintaining directional rail control.
