Custom crafted with a unique YES. design perspective. The First Basic is designed for the 8-12 yr. old who’s skills, not size, have already outgrown dumbed-down kids boards, the bunny hill and often their own parents.
Profile: Flat Rock
Terrain: Resort
Response: Medium
Features:
-
Full Poplar Core: Yes' baseline core for tip to tail woodcore snowboard construction. Strikes a predictable balance between durability, consistent flex and light weight.
-
Radial Outline: A mainstay of freestyle riding. Completely symmetrical outline; the stance is centered on the effective edge, tip and tail are identical length and shape, flex is identical at both ends of the board. Radial sidecut is effective and predictable. The overall shape allows complete freedom of expression by keeping the board a neutral, yet responsive tool.
- Biax Fiberglass
Profile: Flat Rock
This is to make kid's boards versatile and forgiving, basically the board will allow you to do anything but will not be aggressive nor will it be challenging to the ride. It's truly a profile meant to make snowboarding easy to learn.
Shape: True Twin
A completely symmetrical shape, which thrives in a variety of freestyle situations. At the core of its design, the twin shape features an identical nose and tail shape, which provides an identical feel and predictable maneuverability whether riding regular or switch. Although originally developed with park riders in mind, twin shapes have also grown to be embraced by many all-mountain riders that like to bring a skateboard style riding out of the park and onto the entire mountain.
Flex: 4 (Scale 1 - 10)
Versatility at it's finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.
Base: Extruded
Just like it says. This material is formed by extrusion. It’s softer than our other two bases, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. At the speeds many of us ride, this material is actually quicker (gets up to speed faster) than sintered when waxed correctly. You may have your own proof of this when you’re smoking by someone with a dried out “high-end” base. It also retains wax better because it’s more porous and is easy to fix with a P-Tex stick if you get scratches in it.
