Gnu Riders Choice

The asymmetrical shape is designed to match the natural mechanics of your body. Because your heelside turn uses different muscles and leverage than your toeside turn, the board features a shorter, deeper sidecut on the heelside to help you initiate turns more easily and maintain better edge control.

No, this board is best suited for intermediate to advanced riders. With a flex rating between 5.5 and 7, it offers a responsive, stiffer feel that requires solid technique to control properly, especially at higher speeds or in technical terrain.

The C2 Hybrid profile blends rocker between your feet with camber underfoot. This gives you the float you need in powder and a catch-free feel for park riding, while the camber zones provide the stability and pop required for carving on hardpack.

Yes, Magne-Traction creates multiple contact points along the edge of the board, acting like a serrated knife to bite into ice and hard snow. It significantly improves edge hold in conditions where a standard smooth edge might slip.

It is an asymmetrical twin. While it rides like a true twin for switch riding and park performance, the specific geometry is tuned differently for your heel and toe edges to optimize your turn mechanics.

The sintered base is porous and dense, meaning it absorbs wax very well and is built for speed. To keep it performing at its best, you should plan on hot-waxing it regularly to prevent the base from drying out and slowing down.
