SHIFTER 3D - DEMO SNOWBOARD
Pickup currently unavailable at 325 Rue du Marais
The shifter 3d will get you through the toughest conditions, from spring snow to rocky rails. Its shape and flex are geared toward park and rail riding, featuring a Y3D nose and tail for reduced edge catching.
Shape: True Twin
A Multi-radius sidecut on a snowboard features a blend of multiple radii from tip to tail, creating an elliptical shape. This design offers several performance benefits:
Consistency: Provides a uniform turning radius across the board’s length.
Versatility: Excels in various snow conditions.
Smoother Transitions: Ensures fluid transitions from edge to edge. Overall, the multi-radius contributes to a well-balanced, user-friendly design suitable for a wide range of riders conditions.
1. Extruded
YES Snowboards' extruded bases are durable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, making them ideal for beginner and casual riders. Created by melting polyethylene pellets and molding them, these bases have lower porosity, requiring less waxing and simplifying tuning. While sintered bases offer higher performance, extruded bases provide a smoother learning curve and forgiving ride in various conditions.
2. Poplar/Paulownia
YES Snowboards' Poplar/Paulownia core is crafted from 50% Poplar and 50% Paulownia. Poplar offers lightweight consistency and flex, enhancing agility. Paulownia, even lighter, ensures weight reduction while maintaining strength. This blend creates a lightweight, responsive, and durable snowboard, perfect for various riding styles and conditions.
3. BIAX
Biaxial or "Biax" fiberglass consists of fibers running in two directions, typically along the length and width of the board. This construction provides a balanced flex pattern, making the snowboard more forgiving and easier to control. It enhances torsional flexibility, allowing for smoother turns and maneuvers, which is particularly beneficial for riders who prioritize a playful and versatile riding experience rather than aggressive performance.
FOREVER FLEX
Forever Flex is a manufacturing process that helps stabilize the flex and rocker profile of a board for its lifetime. Our boards now finish the first stages of production slightly overbuilt and then we “break them in” using a specialized machinery that mimics extreme riding use. By flexing the fresh board fibers and epoxy at the factory the materials settle into their final arrangement within the board layup much the same as if you rode the board for 20 days. This process helps us narrow our production tolerances so the board you buy has a more accurate specified flex and rocker profile that will change less as you ride it more.
