KORUA Shapes Pencil + Snowboard 2023

The all-black Pencil Plus is a premium all-round shape for effortless turns in all types of snow conditions. Its super light weight makes it more reactive and prevents fatigue and also comes in handy strapped to a backpack on snowshoe missions. As this shape is part of our PLUS line, it offers additional quality and performance. The upgraded base, core and topsheet create a lighter, faster, and more responsive ride, designed for riders looking for a board that does it all.

Profile: Float Camber

The Pencil Plus features Korua's Float Camber, which curves into a rocker shape in the nose. This profile helps you stay on top in deep powder while maintaining speed throughout the turn. The camber under-foot offers grip and stability on hard-pack and in variable conditions, while the early rise in the nose allows for an easy initiation of turns. We recommend trying to ride this shape with more weight on the front foot.

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.

Flex: 5-6 (Scale 1 - 10)

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

Base: Sintered

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