An advocate of powerful turns and poppy precision, camber speaks to the core values of board design. Offering a snappy suspension, camber distributes weight evenly over the entire length of the board for a smooth, continuous edge control from tip to tail.

PurePop

An evolution of traditional camber shape, the NEW PurePop camber profile features subtle flat zones just outside your feet to amplify pop and add playfulness to the snap and response of camber. Early rise tip and tail sections spin and float with a catch-free feel.

Directional Flying V

In deep snow, speed and float are your friends and that's what Directional Flying V is all about. While the design specifics vary between the boards, the basics are and entry rocker that extends for the nose to under your front foot, then transitions to either camber or flat between your feet.

This design causes the entry rocker to lift the nose thus improving float while maintaining momentum and stability through deep driving pow turns and variable conditions.

A blend of camber and rocker performance, Flying V™ offers the best of both worlds. Rocker overall, including between and outside your feet, enhances playfulness and float.

Flat Top

Rising rider or seasoned pro, keep your game high and tight with Flat Top. A flat profile between the feet means stability, better balance, and continuous edge control.
