The Velvet is the choice of Gnu team riders who approach the whole mountain like their park. It’s snappy flex and hybrid C2 contour work in synergy for pop and stability. It features intuitive geometry, and Magne-Traction®, so it is catch-free and responsive. The eco sublimated plant-based graphics give this ride a down to earth vibe. The Velvet is comfortable in any conditions and as balanced in the park as it is in banked slaloms or street sessions. Design conceptualized by Naima Antolin and designed by Hannah Eddy.
Features::
- Flex: 5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
- Camber Type: C2 - Mild rocker between your feet with powerful camber to the tip and tail gives you power and pop on groomers and in the park along with float and freedom to charge through powder. Carves the resort, plays in the park, and slays powder.
- Shape: Asym Twin - Identical tip to tail for controlled riding in regular or switch, with an asymmetric construction from toe to heel. Asymmetrical boards are built with a shorter sidecut on the heel edge and a different core construction from toe to heel, resulting in more precise carves on your toes, and easier and more powerful turns on your heels.
- Core: Light, environmentally nice, strong, and poppy. Combines Aspen and Paulownia woods with Triax and Biax alloy glass for a super smooth ride and lighter weight.
- Asym Sidecut: Deeper sidecut on heel side for increased power
- Base: Eco-Sublimated - A fast, tough, and easy to maintain base.
- Mounting Pattern: 2x4 inserts
- Magnetraction - 7 strategically placed serrations along the edges of the board grip onto the snow and hold a strong edge in any condition.
