Santa Cruz Snowboards SRX Hand 157 Snowboard

The SRX is ideal for speed-driven, hard edge carving runs. The blunt nose & tail design maximises it’s effective and contact edge grip on icy slopes, packed powder, and banked slaloms. The SRX is the team’s go-to board for BoarderX courses and speed competitions.

Riding Style
Perfect for tight turns at very steep angles. A board just made for the pure joy of carving at high speeds.

Shape
This snowboard comes in a True Twin Shape. Tip and tail are of equal length and width combined with a centred radial sidecut. The snowboard rides equally well in both directions. It also comes with a blunted nose/tail. The big advantage of this shape is that the board offers the same effective edge length as a bigger sized board with a standard nose and tail shape. Imagine if you’d cut the nose and tail of a board with 164 cm down to 161, the overall length gets shorter, but the effective edge length stays the same. The long effective edge give extreme stable and controlled carving ability, like on rails.

Profil
The traditional Camber profile is an advocate of powerful turns and poppy precision, camber speaks to the core values of board design. Offering a snappy suspension, camber distributes weight evenly over the entire length of the board for smooth, continuous edge control from tip to tail. If you like to haul ass and go big, camber is irreplaceable.

Flex
The stiff flex provides you with a lively board that allows you to stay in control at all speeds and pop over everything.

Construction
The HCM+ core was designed to provide maximum torsional strength without limiting the longitudinal flex ratio. Boards with a softer flex still maintain high torsional strength for maximum edge grip and control. The Xenogen Triax 45+ laminate offers precision flex and stability that delivers quicker edge to edge response and control at higher speeds. Xenogen Triax fibre laminate is used for boards in the higher-end performance category. The Super Speed S8000 Base is super fast and durable. Highest speed combined with the highest strength. Nano-additives boost acceleration up to formula one limits.

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.
