The Gnu Banked Slalom is a powerful and technically advanced snowboard that embodies speed, precision, and agility for the ultimate racing experience on the mountain.
Magne-Traction is a patented technology that creates wavy edges on snowboards for improved grip on icy and hard snow. These waves provide extra contact points that enhance stability and control.
The ultimate resort shred stick for advanced riders who constantly keep an eye on the weather and score ridiculous amounts of powder snow, but rip every day, regardless of the conditions.
