A basic for fun
The Basic by Yes Snowboards is a basic for a good shred day. The freestyle board, which riders like Austen Sweetin and Benji Ritchie regularly have under their feet, ensures that easy presses and jibs look even more stylish.
Riding Style
Presses, butters and iibs, that's what the Basic likes.
Shape
As True Twin, the Basic is completely symmetrical: shape, flex and sidecut. It rides switch like normal. The Underbite Outline increases turning ease and edge hold.
Profile
A unique rocker/camber flex pattern defined by an evenly balanced tip and tail rocker and camber between the bindings. CamRock improves freestyle finesse by keeping your tips playful while maintaining the power and pop of camber underfoot.
Flex
For presses and jibs, the Basic comes with medium flex.
Construction
Durability, flex and light weight, the Full Poplar Core has proven itself for a long time. The biax fibreglass ensures that the Basic is forgiving and increases its torsional flex. The Extruded Base is durable and easy to repair.

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.
