The Directional Standard Camber board comes equipped with Tapered Elliptical Progressive Sidecut to smooth out turns initiated with speed and Slimewalls® to reduce vibration and dampen all the conditions that Mother Nature can throw your way. A Sintered, Stone Ground base sucks up wax to keep you mobbing all winter and Carbon Array 3™ gives you plenty of pop if there’s an obstacle you prefer to ollie instead of going around it. This board is all the smoke in every way and it’s ripe for the rippin’ this winter. PRODUCT DETAILS DESIGNED FOR: Novice - Expert / All-Mountain, Powder, Groomers SHAPE: Directional FLEX: Mellow BASE: Sintered, Stone Ground Base CAMBER PROFILE: Directional Camber BINDING MOUNT: 4x2 FEATURES: DIRECTIONAL STANDARD CAMBERA directional shape with a hybrid profile that has more rocker than camber. ELLIPTICAL PROGRESSIVE SIDECUTDesigned exclusively for the Commissioner, this sidecut combines tight elliptical curvature at the tip and tail to provide low-speed initiation and response with a larger radial section between the feet for high-speed stability and tracking. PERFORMANCE™ COREHigh strength Aspen is combined with Bamboo and lightweight Paulownia wood to provide the perfect balance of strong and light. SLIMEWALLS®RIDE’s exclusive Slimewalls® are forgiving and ductile, absorbing impacts rather than defending against them. Just like your skate wheels, the urethane in Slimewalls® smoothes the interaction with the snow, wood or metal surfaces you may ride on. On top of all that, these babies are virtually indestructible, the most durable sidewalls in snowboarding. DOUBLE IMPACT PLATESAdded underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most. Offered in two levels, Single and Double. CARBON ARRAY LAMINATESThis power distribution technology provides total board control in every stance location. Widespread carbon stringers placed at the binding zone gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control. Offered in two levels of technology, 3 & 5. TOPLESS CONSTRUCTIONBy transferring graphics directly to the fiberglass, Topless Construction removes the need to have any topsheet material. This process improves overall durability and reduces weight. HYBRID GLASSTriaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed. ROLL-IN CONSTRUCTIONUnique 3D structure built around our urethane Slimewall® sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.
