The 2027 Gnu Banked Country is an advanced all-mountain directional snowboard built for resort rippers who charge hard in powder and adapt fluidly to whatever the mountain throws at them — from tracked-out groomers to heavy off-piste. Directional Progressive Magne-Traction® with serrations concentrated from the board's mid-section to the tail delivers grip and control in variable snow and on hardpack, while Carbon Power Bands and a G Lite 3 FSC Certified Aspen and Paulownia core combine lightweight feel with explosive pop and response. A refined longer contact length with a smooth-entry floaty nose, 1.5" setback directional camber, and mild taper angle give the Banked Country exceptional float in powder without sacrificing the precision and energy needed to push it on firm snow. The switch-friendly tail and skateboard-influenced shaping philosophy from the Temple and Cannon Cummins father-son collaboration make this board as at home throwing tricks off side hits as it is hunting fresh lines on a storm day.
