Riding style
An all-mountain/freeride board designed for experienced riders. A responsive, precise snowboard ideal for high-speed turns and steep powder lines. This snowboard offers the performance required for expert-level snowboarding across any terrain.

Shape
The tapered directional shape is ideal for all-mountain and freeriding. The nose is slightly wider than the tail, allowing controlled turns on any terrain. The offset of the bindings in the direction of the tail (setback) lengthens the nose slightly, providing an even greater uplift in powder.

Profile
The Alpine V1 profile consists of a camber between the bindings, a large nose rocker area and a smaller tail rocker. This keeps the board highly manoeuvrable in the pow and gives it an enormous uplift. The camber offers you good edge hold and fast power transmission.

Flex
The medium-stiff flex ensures precise control and fast board response.

Construction
The FC Hover Core™ is an energetic woodcore with carbon strips that is exceptionally light and strong with excellent cushioning properties. The Carbon Fleece Power Shield™ is a blended fabric located in the binding area to improve overall performance and stability. Carbonflex™ amplifiers are strips made of carbon and flax. These strips run from the inserts to the contact points, stiffening the nose and tail while cushioning vibrations. The sintered Hyperdrive™ ADV XT base is very fast and hard and absorbs a lot of wax for more durability and speed.
