At the forefront of this retro wave in the snowboard world, surf and vintage boards inspired shapes built to adapt to that new flavor in snowboarding as well as to endure the needs of contemporary snowboarding.

 

Keep in mind that even though snowboards have a retro style, they are still built with actual technology and technicalitie, only they have a shape adapted to the flavor of the day. The best of both world.
