Gnu Ladies Choice

The asymmetrical design accounts for the biomechanical differences between your heel-side and toe-side turns. By using a shorter, deeper sidecut on the heel edge, it makes initiating turns on your heels feel more natural and less fatiguing, resulting in a more balanced ride.

C3 is a camber-dominant profile, which means it offers significant pop and stability at speed, but it can be less forgiving than a rocker-dominant board. If you are an intermediate rider looking to progress or an advanced rider who values precision and edge hold, this profile will reward your technique.

Magne-Traction adds serrations to the edge of the board, creating multiple contact points that bite into hard-packed snow and ice. It significantly improves your edge hold in conditions where a traditional smooth edge might slip.

While the Ladies Choice is certainly capable in the park, it is designed as an all-mountain board. Its combination of a sintered base, responsive flex, and stable camber profile makes it just as comfortable carving groomers or navigating varied terrain as it is hitting features.

A sintered base is porous and designed to absorb wax, which keeps you moving fast. To maintain its performance and speed, you should wax it regularly, especially if you notice the base looking dry or whitish.

A 4.5 flex rating sits right in the middle of the spectrum, offering a versatile balance. It is stiff enough to provide stability and response when you are charging hard, but soft enough to remain playful and forgiving when you want to butter or press.
