Limited early release of the new 2014/15 Never Summer Ripsaw in 156cm, 159cm & Ripsaw X in 157X This new model from Never Summer features the new ‘ Camber Rocker’ profile, which has amplified camber areas that are both longer & deeper than Never Summers traditional Rocker Camber boards. This brings twice the amount of camber while still retaining Rocker Camber playfulness. The true twin Ripsaw provides superior edge hold, amazing playfulness, incredible float & gigantic pop. Specification: Profile: Camber Rocker (camber/rocker/camber) Running length: 1170mm Waist
Width: 252mm Sidecut radius: 7.3m (multiple radius average) Setback: Centred Flex (1 soft, 10 stiff): 7 (Specification based on the 156cm board)
Features: Matte Topsheet Carbon VXR Extended dual carbon V’s help to transfer more energy to the end of the effective edge, tip & tail without making the board too stiff for buttering & presses. Rocker Camber Profile has amplified camber areas that are both longer & deeper than Never Summers traditional Rocker Camber (RC) boards. This brings you twice the amount of camber while still retaining RC playfulness. Vario Power Grip Sidecut. This specific sidecut geometry combats the lack of stability & edge hold which is often a side effect of more traditional rocker profiles. A low profile in the nose & tail maximizes material contact with the snow for more powerful Ollie/ Nollie pop & adds stability to landings. Low Profile Tip/ Tail also reduces the plowing effect in the nose for superior float in soft snow. The worlds best snowboard fiberglass, period. STS Pre-tensioned Fiberglass is a pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, & layered laminate that provides unmatched strength, edge hold & performance. Bi-Lite Fiberglass uses an ultra light glass reinforced fiber matrix, which delivers incredible freestyle & freeride performance without sacrificing durability. Never summer’s exclusive Custom Flightcore is their most advanced core system. Designed & built in house at their woodcore facility, these cores fuse premium hardwood & ultra light softwood with vertical layers of elastomeric vibration dampers. The vibration absorption actually increases the faster you ride & maintainies an incredible amount of snap & liveliness & performance that only a Never Summer board can deliver. The lightweight RDS 2 Dampening System uses three narrow laminated dampening layers that provide the perfect combination of vibration & stability.
