Gnu Metal Guru and Velvet Guru: Here is yet another Gnu innovation Watch. These guys just keep killing it year after year so we're gonna keep exploring their new product lines. These boards are the Gnu 2013 Metal Guru and the Gnu 2013 Velevt Guru. We could tell you all about their hybrid camber and Gnu's EC2, how they make riding them a dream and how you would be crazy to not check them out. But instead we'll let you watch a video from one of the Gnu reps.

Gnu Mutant 2013 Snowboard Binding: We realize it would have made sense to put all our Gnu Innovation Watch posts together but getting a new blog every day is just so much more exciting. Here we have the 2013 model of the Gnu Mutant Snowboard Binding. Featuring a two strap system with a toe cap while keeping rear-entry functionality, these bindings are sick. They have full ratchets allowing you to use the binding however you want. The toe strap also recieved some modifications making it more conforming and comfortable to ride. It's the 2013 Gnu Mutant binding and here's a video!

Gnu A.S.S. Impossible 2013 Snowboard: As Gnu and the people at Mervin have been driving innovation more than almost any company it almost seems silly for us to have to mention them on our Innovation Watch but we just can't help ourselves. They continue to simply put out unbelievable products. 2013 will see Gnu releasing the Asym Sym Sync, aka Impossible aka A.S.S. Pickle. The 2013 Gnu Impossible is a truely asymmetrical board design with how riders move in mind. The board features an elongated toe side edge and shortened heel side edge along with deeper heelside sidecut and a mellower toeside sidecut. These features make edge transitions a breeze. This board is designed to practically steer for you. Check this video from WWSRA that we made.
