Gnu Frosting

The directional shape is designed to ride best in one direction, with a slightly longer nose that helps you float through deep snow and initiate turns more easily. It provides a stable, predictable feel when you are charging down the mountain, though it is still versatile enough for occasional switch riding.

The C2 profile blends rocker between your feet with camber underfoot. This gives you the float and forgiveness of rocker in powder, while the camber zones provide the edge hold and stability you need on hardpack or icy groomers.

Yes, Magne-traction creates multiple contact points along the edge of the board, similar to a serrated knife. This significantly improves your grip on hard, icy snow where a traditional smooth edge might slip.

A sintered base is more porous than an extruded one, meaning it absorbs wax better and holds it longer, resulting in a faster, more durable ride. While it does require regular waxing to maintain that speed, it is the better choice if you want a board that glides effortlessly across flat sections and holds up over time.

The Frosting is designed with a forgiving flex that makes it approachable for intermediate riders looking to progress, but it has enough technical performance to satisfy more experienced riders. It is stable enough to build confidence without feeling overly stiff or demanding.
