...The Sauron to the Standard's Gandolf Sharing the same directional twin shape & high-end construction as the Standard, the high-performance 2021 Ye S Ghost eschews the Standard's versatile Cam Rock profile in favour of a powerful & dynamic traditional camber. This creates a responsive & powerful board that delivers outstanding performance across the whole mountain. However, where the Ghost stands out when compared to its sibling, is in the park. The extra pop through the length gives a more energetic ride, meaning not only can you go bigger off kickers, but you've also got the reassurance that no matter how hard you l&, the Ghost is solid enough to stop you blowing out. Rider Style: High Performance All Terrain The Ghost is aimed at intermediate through to expert riders who are looking for a powerful, high-performance snowboard that delivers a stunning ride no matter what or where you ride. Shape Overview: Directional Twin The Ghosts advanced directional twin shape is key to its stunning all-terrain performance. Heading this up is the unique blunt nose profile. Taking its inspiration from the highly acclaimed Optimistic, this state of the art design gives unrivalled levels of lift & float, without feeling long & unwieldy. To provide the Ghost with its responsive & stable underfoot feel, it utilises Yes's advanced Mid Bite edge profile. This innovative design pulls in the edges between the insert packs, cheating the board into riding like it has a narrower waist. This unique design works so well that it allows the designers to increase the width of the board under the feet, improving float in pow while also giving a more stable platform for popping off jumps & kickers. For this season the Ghost now features the new Slamback Stance, this adds an extra set of inserts allowing you to set back the stance for those bottomless powder days. Profile: Camber The Ghosts Modern Camber is an update of what we would call a traditional camber. By starting the full-length camber profile just after the contact points, you get all the benefits of a conventional camber, but you also create a smoother hook-free ride. The Modern Camber profile dissipates the rider's energy more evenly along the board's edge length giving a more stable & responsive ride as the edge is engaged along its full length. Construction As you would expect for such a high-performance board, the Ghost's construction utilises some of the most advanced technology available. Heading this up is the state of the art wood core. Combining durable poplar with lightweight paulownia & bamboo stringers running through the centre, the Ghost delivers a powerful & responsive flex through the length, while cutting weight to the absolute minimum. To this, Yes then add structural layers formed from a torsionally stiff tri-ax weave glass fibre. This beefs up the torsional flex & ensures that no matter how hard or how fast you ride, you just know that the Ghost won't let you down. Base As the Ghost is all about performance, Yes step up the base to a True Sintered material. True Sintered is harder & more expensive than extruded, & it can be faster for those that ride aggressively fast.
