Never Summer 2020 West Bound Df

If you’re good with where you’re at snowboarding than don’t read this. It’s a waste of your time. If you’re always striving to be better, this is your only choice. The West Bound, the best board in town. The greatest profile in snowboarding snuck its way out of the Shaper Series and on to the best...on to the West. The West Bound features a new boss shape, a pinch of taper, and the Recluse Web Carbon Layup. A lot’s changed in the West. We now float better, carve better, maneuver better, we are better. POP?!? Like an exploding hot air ballon. Like a Crater Lake size stove top popcorn. Find your home in the West. West Bound my friend.

CAMBER PROFILE:

MULTI CAMBER

Like the name suggests, hybrid profiles are a mix of camber, flat and rocker. There are heaps of different combinations of this employed by snowboard manufacturers. The rocker in the tip and tail are great for turn initiation and float in powder, whilst the camber underfoot adds stability, pop and increased edge-hold. You get the edge-hold you need from the camber section underfoot and the float in powder from the rocker sections.

Never Summer put the edge gripping hold, the snap out of turn,_ and the huge pop of Ripsaw RC in the back and combined it with the float and surfy feel of Original RC in the front. The best of both worlds from the best profile design in snowboarding.

SHAPE:

TAPERED DIRECTIONAL 

A tapered directional shape is like a directional shape, but the width of the nose will be noticeably larger than the width of the tail.

Almost everything about the tail and the nose will be different – flex, side-cut, length and width. The stance will always be setback, and everything is designed to go only in one direction.

This specific board has 5mm of taper meaning this board will carve like no other and float in pow!
