PRODUCT INFORMATION

The narrower outline of the 420 with PH allows such extreme versatility - a wide range of riders can be comfortable on this one length. Refined waist width and side-cut make it more responsive than the 420, while longer effective edge gets a little more bite into the hard-pack. And the PowderHull makes it impossible to sink the nose.

Profile: Powderhull + Camber
Terrain: Pow
Response: Medium Responsive

Features:

  • Weightless Core: The weightless core strikes a critical balance between lightweight and strength. Using a lower density species of Poplar in areas that are not as structural and Paulownia in the areas that are, we’re able to shave precious weight off our beloved 420 and now the 20/20. This helps a board not only float, but “feel” floaty.
  • Radial Outline: A slight taper (12mm) helps keep the nose up without loosing the tail’s ability to hold in hard-pack. Stance is only slightly set back from center of effective edge because the difference in nose and tail shovel keeps you from going over the nose. The 3D Powder Hull starts with a base profile that combines 2 distinct rocker lines that, when blended together, create a pronounced base concave in the nose and tail. The centerline is fully rockered starting from the insert packs, all the way to the tips of the bluntly shaped nose and tail. Out at the contact edges is a more conventional base profile that we use on many of our other boards. The resultant concave across the nose and tail acts differently at the leading end of the board than it does at the trailing end when riding in deep snow. At the leading end (nose), the concave draws air under the board – just as a concave spoon-nose does on longboards in the surf – causing lift and floatation. As the snow moves across the base it releases off the tail and the exaggerated rocker line along the center, causes the tail to drop downward.

Profile: Powderhull 2.0 + Camber

Adding even more float by giving the PowderHull or Coreless boards a MidBite radius gives that extra bite to the board when riding hard-pack and allows for tighter turns on the groomers. Once in powder you are virtually unsinkable with the combination of the Hull and MidBite.

Camber is the base of snowboarding: you need to have an edge hold enough to drive in and out of turns, the Camber acts as a shock absorber on cars they push the wheels into the road to enhance grip. The camber does exactly that to the edge. Allowing you to drive your turns longer and release later.

Shape: Directional

This is all about surface area displacement to create float and stability. The shorter length and bigger surface area provides a tighter radius that facilitates tight forest powder runs.

Flex: 8 (Scale 1 - 10)

How to ride powder without back and leg burn,

Base: PH Sintered True

Pellets or course powder is pressed until it forms a solid. True Sintered is harder and more expensive than extruded and it can be faster for those that ride aggressively fast. But to do that, it needs to be waxed and prepared for local conditions. Yes' “Sintered PH Spec” material is specifically chosen for unique flex qualities necessary for the PowderHull’s complex 3D surfacing.
