Key Features
C3 Camber Rocker Profile - Engineered for high performance, Mervin's C3 profile utilizes mild rocker between your feet with powerful camber sections towards the tip and tail. This provides maximum edge hold and stability at high speeds while maintaining unmatched float and precision for expressive freestyle riding in powder and across the whole mountain.
Control / Precision / Power
Asym Sidecut: Balance Through Asymmetry - Asymmetric Sidecuts and construction balance the different turning mechanics required for heel-side and toe-side turns. Your body is asymmetric, which means your snowboard should also be asymmetric. Ride better and have more fun through asymmetry!
Asym Level 2 - A deeper sidecut on the heelside and an asymmetric wood core with softer flexing wood on the heelside for precision/control on your toeside edge with added power on your heelside edge. In addition, the heelside contact is shorter for a more aggressive asymmetrical feel.
Magne-Traction Serrated Edges - Strategically placed bumps that create added contact points along each edge for increased grip and control in all conditions.
Core
G2 ASYM Eco Core - FSC certified and comprised of Aspen, Paulownia II (toeside) and Paulownia III (heelside), this core is light, poppy, and packs a ton of response. The Asymmetrical wood core layup allows the board to feel natural and effortless underfoot when engaging turns in all conditions.
Laminates
Tri-Ax/Bi-Ax - Fiberglass lay-up blend that provides a strong and responsive ride that is poppy and lively underfoot.
Topsheet
Eco-Sub Poly Topsheet - This Polyester topsheet is tough, sheds snow and adds traction.
Base
Sintered Knife Cut - Aptly named, this base is designed for speed, speed, and more speed. Sintered bases hold wax really well, but to get the most out of your speed machine, we recommend you setup your own waxing ritual to ensure you make fast, sharp, lines down the mountain every time.
Warranty
1 Year Warranty - Covered under manufacturer warranty for 1 year from the time of purchase. Warranty includes structural defects only and DOES NOT cover impact damage, abuse, misuse or normal wear and tear expected from aggressive riding.
