The Café Racer is a classic softboot carving shape, ideal for tight turns when tearing up groomers at your local resort. It’s a great board for learning how to carve, but can also handle the skills and turns of an experienced rider. Although its main focus is on carving, the Café Racer can easily be taken off-piste for some deep powder turns. If getting super low on your turns is your priority, this is the shape for you!

Profile: Full Camber
Korua's Full Camber is a modern version of the traditional camber that many of us grew up with. Like most classic camber profiles, it offers great stability and excellent grip from tip to tail as the full length of your edge lies in the snow during a turn. Unlike the classic version, ours offers more float and speed in soft snow due to a smoother transition into the nose area.
Shape: Directional Tapered
Directional tapered boards excel in a pure mountain environment. The tail sinks in pow for better float and quicker turns.
A directional shape with a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail get taken to the next level with a tapering design—which sees a wider nose tapering into a narrower tail. The advantages are two-fold: this shape not only sees mega-enhanced floatation with a surfy feel in deep powder, it also creates a faster turning snowboard which is noticeably more nimble and great for tree riding.

Versatility at it's finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.

High-end base material that is harder, more durable, and faster than extruded bases.
