GNU 2015 Eco Impossible Snowboard : It's almost impossible to fathom the amount of tech and design that went into the Gnu Eco-Impossible EC2 PBTX Snowboard. Built with its EC2 PBTX design, this board is just right when it comes to a deeper heel side sidecut, Asymmetrical Pickle Barrel Core Softer Heel Side Flex, Asymmetrical Contact Angles, Tip and Tail Shapes and the Smart Formula Asymmetric Magne-Traction. What does all that jargon mean? It means the Eco-Impossible is a naturally easy ride boasting maximum performance, lots of control, turning and pop so you can do anything and everything in the park. Smart Magne-Traction .5 helps you carve amazingly into almost anything and the UHMW Sidewalls turn this board into something close to bombproof. By studying the biomechanics of us mere mortals, the Weird Science Team and Gnu created a revolutionary board that matches our bodies and movement.
Profile: Camber Rocker Camber
EC2PBTX: Rocker between your feet combined with elliptical cambers out to the contact. Aggressive riders: unreal tip and tail control, power and pop combined with the float, freestyle freedom and carving of rocker between the feet.
Outline:A.S.S True Twin
True twin shape allows for super easy switch riding. The A.S.S. Pickle Tech creates a deeper heelside sidecut and softer heelside flex for a much more natural transition between toe side and heel side. Then asymmetrical contact points from a shorter heel side edge allow your toe side and heel side feel identical. Designed to match the geometry of your body, this is the most innovative tech on the market.
Construction: Aspen, Eco Woods
Paulownia: Incredible, ultra-lightweight, strong and poppy. Growing up to 20 feet a year once harvested, it grows back out of its own stump, making it extremely renewable.
Aspen: A combination of Great lakes and Rocky Mountain Aspen, this gives the board a light snappy feeling that adds tons of pop.
Columbian Gold: GNU builds boards with fast growing farmed eco woods selected specifically for their long fibers, light weight, strength, long lasting pop and great feel. Wood is Nature's fiberglass.
Laminates: Quasi Glass
Quasi Glass uses a mix of biaxial and triaxial fiberglass for extra pop and response right where you need it
Edges: Magne-Traction
Turns ice into powder! Serrated edges create 7 points of contact to give great edge hold all over the mountain, especially on hard pack and ice!
Top Sheet: Co-Extruded
This is an exclusive oddity of the Gnu sublimation system. Makes the board hard, fast and nearly maintenance free.
Base: Sintered
Compression hardened amorphous UHMW skived from the billet to create the toughest, fastest, best wax holding base material around. Slides best and fastest when waxed regularly to match local snow conditions.
Warranty: One Year
One year warranty against manufacturer defects.
