GNU 2015 Rider's Choice Snowboard : The flagship of the Gnu line is back and better than ever! The 2015 Rider's Choice is loaded with all it's classic greatness and adds in tons of new tech as well. For starters Gnu added A.S.S. Pickle tech which lengthens the toe side edge of the board and creates a deeper heelside cut. This makes your toe and heelside edge feel nearly identical and allows the board to act more natural under foot! Your body is asymmetrical, your board should be too! The C2 PBTX gives you get rocker between your feet and radial cambers at the tip and tail. This creates amazing float in powder and catch free riding for lots of playful surfy-ness and yet leaves tons of stored energy and power in the tip and tail. If you love powder days, huge booters, and destroying the entire mountain, you can't get any better than this!
Profile: Camber Rocker Camber
C2PBTX: Rocker between your feet combined with radial 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!
