Everything about the Yes Standard
Everything about the Yes Standard
The Yes Standard has a Directional Volume Twin shape with a wide platform under your feet where you need it, and now Slamback inserts for those unexpected powder days.
Because the boundaries between freeride and freestyle are increasingly blurring, Yes has responded to the needs of riders who only ride twins but are increasingly found in the powder.
By combining camber and rocker, the board is both responsive and has floatation.
Discover the Yes Standard
Imagine this: the ultimate snowboard that sets the standard for all-mountain versatility. That is exactly what the Yes Standard promises and delivers. This board is designed to meet the needs of intermediate to advanced riders looking for a single board that excels in all conditions. Whether you dream of groomed slopes or crave deep powder fields, the Yes Standard is ready to make you shine.
Directional Volume Twin
What makes the Yes Standard so special? It all starts with the unique Directional Volume Twin Outline design. This innovative approach offers the best of both worlds: the balance and symmetry of a twin board and the floatation of a directional board. This means you can enjoy the versatility of a twin board while effortlessly gliding through untouched powder like a pro.
Slamback inserts
To further enhance the floatation, the Yes Standard is equipped with Slambacks. These are inserts placed lower on the board, allowing you to dive deeper into the powder with ease. The result is a smooth and responsive ride that gives you confidence in all conditions.
The hybrid design of the Yes Standard is a masterpiece in itself. With a mild camber between the feet and rocker in the tip and tail, this board offers the perfect balance between control and floatation. The camber keeps the contact points on the ground, allowing you to maintain control through your turns. When you apply pressure on the camber, the contact points rise, effortlessly creating floatation in the powder.
The shape of the Yes Standard is specifically designed for the snowboarder who loves riding a twin board, while also enjoying the pleasures of deep powder snow. Less volume in the tail of the board provides a twin board with impressive floatation, allowing you to cruise effortlessly through the deep snow.
And let's not forget the extra set of inserts that allow you to move the bindings even further back on those epic powder days. With the Yes Standard, you are ready for any challenge the mountain throws at you. So what are you waiting for? Embark on an adventure with the Yes Standard and discover the true meaning of all-mountain versatility.

A real sintered base is harder and more expensive than extruded, and it can be faster for those who ride aggressively. However, to achieve that, it needs to be well waxed and prepared.
This results in a lighter, more responsive core than the Full Poplar. The Poplar + Bamboo uses the same sustainable core, making it lighter by replacing 30% of the Poplar with Paulownia and then adding two bamboo stringers along the entire length for extra pop and responsiveness.
In triax fiberglass, the fiberglass layers are arranged in three different directions: longitudinal, lateral, and diagonal. This targeted placement of the fiberglass layers ensures a balanced combination of torsional stiffness, longitudinal flexibility, and responsiveness in the snowboard.
The MidBite draws the outline of the snowboard 1.5 mm inward, just inside the insert pack. This step is maintained (instead of going back out as with the Basic) until about 1/3 of the length of the sidecut, just inside the next insert pack. This single, long disturbance of the sidecut between the bindings narrows the waist width, resulting in faster edge-to-edge response. At the same time, we maintain a board width from your binding to the end of the sidecut that provides a stable platform for jumps, spins, and landings.
The response of camber with the float of rocker. By combining camber and rocker you can make the board both responsive and floaty.
