Gnu Women's Velvet C2 Snowboard 2026




Overview
The Gnu Velvet C2 is a twin-shaped board built for freestyle progression, making the entire mountain your creative playground. It's the board of choice for Gnu team riders who approach every slope like a park. The Velvet features a snappy flex and a hybrid C2 contour that work in synergy to provide pop and stability. Its intuitive geometry and Magne-Traction® ensure a catch-free and responsive ride. With an environmentally friendly FSC Certified wood core and a sintered base, combined with eco-sublimated plant-based graphics (conceptualized by Naima Antolin with art by Hannah Eddy), the Velvet offers a down-to-earth vibe. It's comfortable in any conditions and as balanced in the park as it is in banked slaloms or street sessions.

Features
C2 Rocker/Camber Profile - Combining central rocker for edge hold and float, with powerful camber towards the tip and tail for stability, pop, and control. Mervin's intricately balanced C2 profile is tuned to the exact specification of Travis Rice for all-terrain destruction.
Control / Precision / Float
Magne-Traction Serrated Edges - Strategically placed bumps that create added contact points along each edge for increased grip and control in all conditions.
G LITE 2 Core - FSC Certified Aspen + Paulownia Core: Light, Strong And Poppy
UHMW External Sidewalls - Ultra High Molecular Weight exterior sidewalls made from soy-based elastomer are laminated to five internal wood layers for totally bombproof sidewalls. Fast, rugged, hard, waterproof.
Bi-Axial Glass - 2-way fiber orientation. Engineered to make the difficult easy.
Tri-Axial Glass - 3-way fiber orientation. Engineered to make the difficult even easier.
Eco-Sub Poly Topsheet - This Polyester topsheet is tough, sheds snow and adds traction.
Eco Sublimated Sintered Base - Fast, tough, and holds wax so your days in the park or out in a more urban environment stay lit from the first trick to the last. Less time adding wax or doing repairs means more time snowboarding, and that's all anyone really wants, right?
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.
Handbuilt in the USA - Every Gnu snowboard is handmade by snowboarders with jobs in the USA.
Mervin Made: EcoUNREAL Manufacturing - Core materials are sources from fast-growing, renewable forest products. Water-based solvents used for cleansing instead of petrochemical-based solvents. All wood sawdust is recycled as a soil additive, plus scrap wood is donated to a local Mood Wood company that packages it as kindling and resells it.
