Rocker Type
Triple Camber Recurve
- "Take what is traditional and revolutionize it" is how Never Summer engineered Triple Camber Recurve - their newest innovation.
- Triple Camber arched into a powerful traditional camber creates an absolute beast of a snowboard profile.
- Recurve brings you the ultimate, energetic all mountain feel of traditional camber while giving you an easier ride and more powerful edge hold, made possible by Triple Camber's R.I.P. Edge Hold Technology.
- This profile dominates all over the mountain and on all different variations of snow.
- Give Triple Camber Recurve a try and see how Never Summer changed the game once again.
Rocker Profile
(Camber / Rocker / Camber / Rocker /Camber)
Flex
Medium
Flex Rating
6 out of 10 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
All Mountain Directional
- Directional Shape is designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while providing plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition.
Taper
10 mm
Core
Power Surf WOOD CORE
- A high percentage of lightweight Paulownia is combined with Poplar and Birch running down the middle of the core and Poplar along the sidecut edge.
- Adding strength and the optimum amount of torsional rigidity.
- THE POWERSURF WOOD CORE strategically combines these woods in crucial areas of the core for a durable yet lightweight feel.
Topsheet
Coextruded Polymer
- This Premium Topsheet is a durable, lightweight, scratch and chip resistant fiber backed thermoplastic.
- This premium topsheets also provide more grip than other topsheet materials, working as a built-in stomp pad.
Laminates
STS Pretensioned Fiberglass
- The world's best snowboard fiberglass, period.
- Never Summer's STS PRETENSIONED FIBERGLASS is an advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate that has added elastomer stringers between the 0 degree and 90 degree glass fibers (the length of the effective edge).
- This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates giving our snowboards unmatched strength, edge hold and performance.
- Most bows use this type fiberglass due to it's unmatched ability to spring back and cast an arrow at a tremendous velocities without breaking.
Bi-Lite Fiberglass
- BI-LITE FIBERGLASS combines many of the strength characteristics of our STS fiberglass with an ultra light glass fiber matrix.
- This delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing durability
Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix
- Its biggest feature is the newly adopted Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix (PSCM) and T3 Carbon Mapping Embossment.
- Carbon fiber is precisely woven into specific zones with different thicknesses to deliver energy exactly where the snowboarder needs it, dramatically improving maneuverability and control.
- When power is needed, this section exerts maximum power, leading to a high level of performance and riding experience.
- It is like a booster device attached to a snowboard.
Base
Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base
- Never Summer's suppliers have developed an exclusive, super fast, durable sintered base specifically for their boards.
- Just the right amount of graphite has been added making the DURASURF XT SINTERED 5501 BASE one of the fastest and certainly the most durable P-Tex bases on the market..
Edges
Full Wrap Metal Edge
Sidewalls
UHMW POLYETHYLENE SIDEWALL
- Never Summer was the first snowboard company to use and perfect UHMW POLYETHYLENE SIDEWALL (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), and they never seen one crack.
- Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls, that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, UHMW POLYETHYLENE SIDEWALL maintain their integrity at any temperature.
- UHMW Polyethylene sidewalls also enhance damping characteristics above the metal edge.
POWER GRIP SIDECUT
- POWER GRIP SIDECUT utilizes multiple radiuses creating extra contact points to enhance edge hold.
- A flat section in the rocker area provides a broad contact point when flexed, however when unbent allows the board to track straight and not catch.
- Flanking this straight section are two shallow radiuses which provide the second and third contact points.
- Towards the ends of the side cut are deep radiuses which render quick turn initiation and the final contact points
Additional Features
RDS 2 DAMPING SYSTEM
- RDS 2 or Rubber Damping System 2 is the perfect balance of freeride stability and freestyle liveliness.
- A more substantial system than a freestyle board to stabilize the board at higher speeds but a little less than damping in a freeride board for leaving the snow.
- An ideal combination of vibration absorption and energetic feel.
ELASTOMERIC UNDERFOOT STABILIZERS
- ELASTOMERIC UNDERFOOT STABILIZERS are placed directly below the mounting area, providing optimum vibration and shock absorption and increase high-speed stability.
- These underfoot stabilizers also add cushioning while reducing foot fatigue.
HARMONIC TIP/TAIL DAMPER/PROTECTION
- HARMONIC DAMPERS in the tip and tail take out a high percentage of residual vibration by quieting the nose and tail.
- This enhances stability at speed, in variable snow conditions and on board landings without deadening the liveliness and pop of the cambered areas.
LOW PROFILE TIP/TAIL
- A lower profile in the nose and tail of the snowboard maximizes material contact with the snow for more powerful ollie/nollie pop and adds stability to your landings.
- LOW PROFILE TIP/TAIL also reduces the plowing effect in the nose for better glide to the next feature and increases the effective edge for hold and stability
TRANSITION AREA
- A flat section of a snowboards profile, the TRANSITION AREA, that lies at the end of the camber zones just before the tip/tail rise.
- This area smooths out the transition between the camber area and the tip rise for fluid turn initiation and enhanced powder floatation.
Factory Tuned
- Board comes waxed and ready for the mountain right from the factory.
