Travis Rice designed this board to be his daily resort ripper. It has the unusual ability to be both stable and responsive when aggressively free riding while also feeling playful and forgiving when required. The C2 camber profile will give it a little more float in pow than most other resort boards. Though more suited to intermediate/advanced riders, it’s not a bad option for a newb looking for something to grow into.
Product Details
Rocker Type:
Hybrid C2 Technology – A performance-driven camber/rocker hybrid profile. Rocker between the feet boosts float, carving, and edge control, while camber underfoot adds power, stability, and responsiveness. Built for confident control in all conditions.
Flex:
Medium – Stiff – Powerful and stable under pressure, yet forgiving enough to avoid a harsh, overly rigid feel. Ideal for hard-charging riders who still want some all-mountain versatility.
Core:
Extended 60% Aspen / 40% Paulownia – A precision-engineered blend of strong yet lightweight woods. Aspen provides durability and power, while paulownia reduces weight without sacrificing pop or response.
Laminates:
Triaxial/Biaxial Fiberglass with Basalt Alloy – Multi-axis fiberglass layers work in tandem with basalt, a natural volcanic fiber known for strength and superior dampening. This combo delivers a smooth, powerful ride with reduced chatter and increased durability.
Sidewalls:
-
Birch Internal Sidewalls – Durable wood reinforcement that enhances strength and board longevity.
-
UHMW Sintered Sidewalls – Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sidewalls for toughness and impact resistance.
-
UHMW Tip/Tail Impact Deflection – Reinforced ends protect against dings and high-impact damage.
Base:
Eco Sublimated Sintered Base – A fast, durable base material optimized for wax retention and long-lasting glide. Eco-friendly sublimation printing adds graphics without harmful chemicals.
