Rocker Type

R.C. - The original Rocker & Camber construction blends a custom rocker profile with separate camber areas at each end of the board, providing unmatched power and snap out of turns. This also provides better board tracking for high speed stability and massive ollies.

Bi-Directional Rocker/Camber Profile - This is designed to perform well riding switch while not inhibiting forward performance. This is accomplished by extending the camber slightly in the tip, increasing pressure over this area. To compensate for this additional pressure, the rocker has been shifted slightly toward the tail adding pop and a more forgiving ride.

Flex

Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) - 5, perfect for all mountain riding

Sidecut

Vario Power Grip - Multi-radius sidecut adds increased edgehold precisely where it's needed most, from 2 inches outside of each binding and inward toward the center of the board, providing added control and response in any conditions (Sidecut Radius numbers are an average).

Core

NS Superlight Wood Core - A blend of extremely light wood with durable hardwood for unmatched strength to weight ratio

Laminates

Carbonium Laminate Technology - More carbon equals more power and performance. Combining an advanced top and base carbon matrix to maximize torsional response and strength where it's needed most results in a lightweight yet powerful design.

Bi-Lite Fiberglass - Combining the strength characteristics of STS ADVANCED fiberglass with an ultra light glass fiber matrix, this delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing durability.

STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass - Pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate with added elastomer stringers between the 0 degree and 90 degree glass fibers run the length of the effective edge. This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates, giving the board unmatched strength, edge hold and performance.

EDS Damping System - Delivering increased edgehold and high speed stability without compromising freestyle performance.

Sidewalls

Sintered P-Tex Sidewall - Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, the Sintered P-Tex Sidewall maintains it's integrity at any temperature.

Base

Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base - Crown Plastics has developed an exclusive, super fast, durable sintered base with just the right amount of graphite to form the fastest base Never Summer has ever used.

Edges

Fully Wrapped Metal Edge - Provides unmatched carving ability and edge grip

Topsheet

Carbonium Topsheet - A very durable, scratch and chip resistant material with a high tech carbon fiber-like visual - this textured material also provides more grip than a gloss topsheet, working as a built-in stomp pad.
