Gnu Ravish 149 2023 Snowboard
MAXIMUM RIDE COMFORT FOR ANY TERRAIN
The Ravish is a comfortable all-mountain / freeride board that glides effortlessly through powder and feels at home all over the mountain. The Hybrid Rocker profile and Magne-Traction® edges ensure a stable ride without tilting. The medium flex is forgiving but offers enough reactivity and agility for more difficult lines.
Riding style
A fun all-mountain/freeride board for advanced female riders. Carving turns on the piste and surf turns in the powder. With this board the good times never end.
Shape
With the directional shape the nose is slightly longer than the tail. The bindings and the sidecut are slightly offset to the back. This increases the stability at higher speeds and the lift in powder. The Magne-Traction® technology provides improved edge hold with serrated edges. Especially on icy slopes they unfold their full potential.
Profile
The C2 profile comes with a rocker between the bindings combined with a camber under the bindings. This combination offers a good edge hold thanks to the camber areas, as well as good lift and unlimited freestyle action without catching an edge thanks to the rocker.
Flex
The medium-stiff flex ensures precise control and fast board response.
Construction
The G2 Lite construction is an environmentally friendly and durable construction design from Gnu. The core of aspen and paulownia wood is asymmetrically constructed, light, sustainable, robust and poppy. Bi- and triaxial fibreglass surrounds the wood core and provides the necessary stiffness and durability. The Eco Sublimated PolyTopsheet is sustainably produced. The sintered base is fast and stays that way if you take care of it.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
