Ride this board… you will never turn back. Trust us!
Category:
Premium Freeride
Premium Series
Overall the stiffest and snappiest boards we offer.
Snowboards in this category feature a combination of
Carbon and Kevlar fibers which work in conjunction with
one another for the ultimate in snap and with enough
dampening to provide a ride that is very powerful yet
smooth and controllable. The FABFusion3 core (PNB2 and
PNB3) is our lightest core design to date but sacrifices
nothing in strength or durability. The ABFusion3 (PNB1)
core is light, but more importantly offers unique memory
retention and has been built up in the edge areas to
give you what could possibly be one of the best
freestyle rides ever. The Premium Performance category
features the PNB1; a high-end freestyle board built
tough for the park and pipe, the PNB2 a high-end
freeride board meant to go everywhere and our new
women�s premium freeride model the PNB3. This category
is for the 50+ day a year rider who needs the ultimate
in performance.
Power Freeride Boards:
Our Freeride shapes are designed for the
more serious freerider, utilizing a new
progressive/transitional sidecut technology with a
softer nose, and snappier tail. This makes it easy to
turn in powder, at high speeds and on groomed runs with
a smooth and relaxed feeling. The stiffer tail will
stabilize you on landing those crazy huge hits.

Bevel:
1.5o
Sidecut:
Transitional
Our sidecut radius is a segment of two circles
(transitional). They work in harmony with our core
profile for balanced performance and progressive
pressure distribution. Hit these boards on a hard turn
and you�ll see what we mean. During turn execution you
would normally hit the first sidecut radius, but turn
the board hard at high speeds and you gain more edge
from the second radius.
Core:
FABFusion3:
Super strong and super light. The FABFusion 3 core
blends the integrity of Poplar and the super light,
super strong exotic wood species called Abachi. The
materials exemplify the ultimate in snowboard core
technology.
Laminate:
KCQ4:
A blend of Kevlar, Carbon and Quadraxial glass. Carbon
for the extra snap and Kevlar to help with stability and
vibration at high speeds. This, along with Quadraxial
glass set at 0, 90, 30 and -30 degrees offers up
superior torsion and a nice snappy feel.
Base:
NTS with Struc Turn:
NanoTech with Struc Turn High Speed sintered 7500 base.
The fastest base in the industry (with StrucTurn).
Period. The IS7500 sintered base is mixed with graphite,
black carbon and Nano additives. The Nano additives take
in heat then expel the heat to melt the snow. This
creates less surface tension and more glide.
Sidewall Info
ABS25:
25 degree ABS sidewalls increase power transfer over the
edge and helps protect the core. All ABS sidewalls are
polished to perfection.
SIZES:
159, 163, 166
