TECH DETAILS

PurePop Camber

PurePop Camber Bend features subtle flat zones to amplify pop and add playfulness.

All Mountain Directional Shape

Directional Shape is designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while providing plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.

5mm Taper

5mm Taper makes for easy turning, providing the feel and focus of a directional board without anything holding you back from riding it like a twin.

Twin Flex

Twin Flex is perfectly symmetrical from tip to tail for a balanced ride that's equally versatile regular or switch.

Super Fly® 800G Core

Super Fly® 800G Core is a dual-species wood core that is loaded with pop and alternates between hard and soft woods to reduce overall weight without limiting performance.

Dualzone™ EGD™

Dualzone EGD engineered wood grain is positioned along the toe and heel edges on two continuous zones perpendicular to the core for more edge-hold, response, and strength.

Biax™ Fiberglass

Biax Fiberglass features a jib-friendly, torsionally soft flex and a forgiving feel that's great for beginning riders or the park
