The Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base from Never Summer is an advanced sintered snowboard base, valued for its durability and speed. It offers excellent glide performance thanks to its smooth surface and low friction coefficient, while also effectively absorbing wax for long-lasting performance.
A poplar wood core with durable beech wood to create the lightest core of Never Summer. The core is sanded in the Never Summer workshop to work with millimeter precision. This results in the boards having the perfect flex in the right places.
Bi-lite fiberglass is a lightweight fiberglass weave used in the construction of Never Summer snowboards. This material offers the right balance between strength and weight, allowing snowboarders to experience optimal control and responsiveness across various terrains and in different conditions.
Vario Power Grip Sidecut uses multiple radii, providing extra edge grip. The flat part in the rocker area becomes one large contact point when flexed, and without pressure, the board will go straight. The ends of the board have a shorter radius, allowing you to initiate turns more quickly.
Never Summer introduces an entirely new camber profile, featuring a slight rocker in the middle of the board, followed by large sections of camber under the bindings. Just before the tip and tail, there is a small flat section to optimize the benefits of camber, without compromising buoyancy and maneuverability in powder snow.
