Flow Maverick Dampening Pad:  This round of Innovation Watch provides a look at something that truely is beyond innovative. The 2013 Flow Maverick snowboard features a dampening pad in the center of the board. What you ask does that mean? Well Flow took their board and injected a sillicone dampening pad into the core of the board. This creates a sligtly lifted pad underneath the (sintered) base of the snowboard. Designed to dampen your ride, reduce board chatter and make riding just that much more fun and comfortable there is one thign we can say about this board. The 2013 Flow Maverick takes innovation to a new level from design to look and even feel. Check out the sneak peak photo!

While we cannot yet speak for the effectiveness of this feature we are excited to give it a try. Check back after the 2012 SIA show in Denver where we will be having some of our crew put the 2013 Flow Maverick and it's dampening pad to the test.
