FEATURES:

Dir. Twin
A directional twin snowboard combines the freestyle versatility of a twin shape with a slight directional emphasis. While featuring a symmetrical shape for switch riding, it incorporates a subtle directional aspect, such as a slightly longer nose or setback stance, enhancing performance in one primary direction. This design maintains a playful feel for freestyle manoeuvres while optimising stability and control, particularly in powder or variable conditions. Ideal for riders who enjoy the park but desire enhanced performance on groomers or in specific terrains, a directional twin provides a versatile compromise between freestyle agility and directional stability.

Mid Camber
The Mid Camber is the versatile all-rounder designed for riding the whole mountain. It offers support and response when needed without being overly aggressive. This profile is perfect for riders who want a balance between performance and relaxation, allowing for both high-energy carving and leisurely cruising. The Mid Camber adapts to various riding styles and conditions, making it a reliable choice for any terrain.

MidBite
Tighter turns and stable landings. MidBite blends the response of a narrow waist width with the stability of a wider nose & tail. The design steps a single section of each sidecut inward between the insert packs. This single long disruption of the sidecut between the bindings creates a narrower waist width, providing quicker edge-to-edge response. Meanwhile, from your bindings out to the end of the sidecut we maintain a wider board width that improves float in pow and is a stable platform for popping, spinning, and landing on an y snow type. A MidBite sidecut has a narrower waist width between the bindings with more defined sidecut radii near the inserts.

Cascade core: POPLAR / PAULOWNIA + BAMBOO RAILS
Features Poplar, Paulownia and Bamboo rails. Poplar provides lightweight characteristics and consistent flex, enhancing maneuverability. Paulownia, even lighter, maintains strength with a favourable strength-to-weight ratio. Bamboo adds durability and responsiveness. This blend ensures optimal weight reduction, responsiveness, and performance, making YES Snowboards perfect for various styles and conditions.

Triax Glass
Triaxial or "Triax" fiberglass on a snowboard refers to a fiberglass construction where the fibers run in three directions— usually along the length of the board and at an angle. This configuration adds torsional stiffness to the board, enhancing its overall stability and responsiveness. Snowboards with triaxial fiberglass tend to have a more precise and controlled feel, making them suitable for riders who prioritize stability at higher speeds, improved edge hold, and better performance in challenging conditions. Triax fiber is often found in snowboards designed for advanced and aggressive riding styles.

Air W Carbon Reenforcement
Introducing Air W: True biaxial aerospacial carbon fiber stringers create a dynamic V-shape extending from the front and back insert packs to the board’s contact points. This V design enhances binding response, increases torsional stiffness, and ensures exceptional stability, in deep snow and in the park. Carbon fiber’s remarkable strength-to-weight ratio guarantees responsive stiffness, improved control, pop, and energy transfer. Perfect for aggressive riding and precise manoeuvres, Air W delivers superior performance and responsiveness in all direction , for landings and carving.

Sintered Base
Sintered bases are crafted by fusing tiny polyethylene particles under heat and pressure, creating a porous, durable surface. Known for superior speed and wax absorption, these bases are favoured by advanced riders for their high-performance capabilities in various snow conditions.

SlamBack Inserts
SlamBack is a versatile insert pattern with 5 rows of 2 inserts at 2cm from each other vertically and 4cm horizontally. With the addition of 2 inserts set 4cm back vertically. This industry standard pattern allows you to find the perfect stance you need. The SlamBack inserts are there for those unexpected powder days and allow you to slam your bindings back by 4cm and give you that directional feel and extra float to your board.
