Never Summer Harpoon Snowboard 2023
Overview
The Harpoon is a killer all-terrain / freeride board built for high performance in the most demanding environments. Amazingly nimble, with smooth and freakish stability, the Harpoon is an apex predator on the mountain featuring Never Summer's Fusion Rocker Camber Hybrid Profile and a high tech damping system that even beginners will appreciate. Because of its solid surface area and width, feel free to downsize 3-6cm, or just go ahead and ride it in your regular board size, the Harpoon isn't picky!

Features
Fusion Rocker Camber - Fusion RC is like a two-headed magical beast. Up front, you get the floaty, playful vibe of Never Summer's Original RC while on the other side there's a more aggressive, incredibly poppy, camber loaded design.
Power Grip Sidecut - Deeper cut towards the tip and tail, to an almost completely straight section in the middle, the sidecut is cut on multiple radii for added control and response in any condition.
NS Superlight Wood Core - Taking their Custom Flight Core even further, Never Summer's Superlight Wood Core blends extremely light wood with durable hardwood for unmatched strength to weight ratio.
STS Pretensioned Fiberglass - A pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered fiberglass laminate producing a stronger bond. This gives the board unmatched strength and edge hold.
Carbon Max Laminate Technology - This laminate tech combines a top and bottom carbon makeup allowing energy to continue so you get the most response possible while maintaining torsional stiffness for control.
RDS 2 Rubber Damping System - This lightweight system uses three narrower laminated damping layers that provide the perfect combinations of vibration absorption and stability.
Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers - Rubber pads directly below the mounting area that provide optimum vibration absorption and increase high speed stability while reducing foot fatigue.
Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base - Crown Plastics has developed an exclusive, super fast, durable sintered base. Just the right amount of graphite has been added, making it the fastest they've ever made.
3 Year Warranty - Covered under manufacturer warranty for 3 years from the time of purchase! Warranty includes structural defects only and DOES NOT cover impact damage, abuse, misuse or normal wear and tear.
Co-Extruded Polymer Topsheet - This premium topsheet is made from co-extruded polymer thermoplastic fiber and is very durable, lightweight, scratch and chip resistant.
Extended Transition Area - A flat section on the outside of the feet that helps initiate turning, float, and delivers an overall increased consistency in board-feel.
Full Wrap Metal Edges - The edges wrap entirely around the board to create a protective barrier, not only keeping you clinging to the steepest icy faces, but helping to prevent damage when you don't quite make it onto rails.
P-Tex Tip & Tail Protection - Like their sidewalls, Never Summer adds durable P-tex to the nose and tail for added protection to their already bombproof boards.
Sintered P-Tex Sidewalls - Sintered P-Tex Sidewalls maintain their integrity at any temperature offering a smoother, faster ride.
Early Rise Nose - A lift in the nose to increase loftiness.
