We worked with Matt Biolos to update all his boards this year. The high performance directional freestyle ATV Quiver Killer squash tail got the treatment with a streamlined new shape and Matt’s signature elliptical progressive sidecuts. Mammoth Mountain’s freestyle all mountain wizard Devin Tubbs helped us dial in the balance of set back, sidecut and tip to tail camber guaranteeing it powers through carves and big landings in the park or off the rocks. A full sized easy entry nose blasts chunder and floats the pow. The precise surf minded progressive carving sidecut trenches top to bottom lines like a race board. All this on a firm flexing, poppy, stable, sustainable aspen/paulownia wood core body with a rugged sintered knife-cut base and eco sublimated graphics. This year Quiver Killer absolutely eliminates the concept of design compromise…it’s all maximize!

“The Quiver Killer is a one board prescription for total terrain terrorizing. A purist camber based board, as adept at directional carving and powder hounding, as it is to park focused freestyle jib ‘n jump antics” - Matt Biolos

Profile: Camber

Precision, control and pop.

The side profile of camber looks like a rainbow. Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Adopted from the bend of alpine skis, camber snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop due to the bend in the board, providing better jumping characteristics. Advanced riders tend to prefer this bend, especially for hard carving and high-speed riding. Even when it comes to softer park snowboards, camber boards deliver exceptional pop and control.

However, they are not as forgiving of mistakes and can be more difficult to learn or progress on than a rocker or hybrid bend.

Shape: Directional

A smooth, reliable ride.

Directional shapes generally feature a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail. These shapes thrive in an all-mountain environment, as they possess the ability to ride more smoothly than their twin-tip counterparts and behave more reliably in variable snow conditions, anywhere from choppy snow to deeper powder. More twin-looking directional shapes where the difference between nose and tail appear minimal will perform best as crossover freestyle snowboards for those looking to still access the park, while more exaggerated differences will excel for additional float in deep powder.

Flex: 6 - 8 (Scale 1 - 10)

Versatility at its finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.

Base: Sintered, knife cut base

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