Why We Like The Gnu Chromatic Snowboard
The Gnu Chromatic Snowboard is our top choice for full-spectrum fun in deep powder and on hidden runs. This board features Gnu's groundbreaking Original Banana profile, which provides an easy-going and floatatious feel. Its directional shape and Magne-Traction edges ensure a buoyant, light-hearted, and mellow ride that holds tight into carves on both powder and corduroy.
Details
This board is designed for all-mountain carving, allowing you to slide faster than the rest.
The OG Banana profile offers an effortless and playful experience on the mountain.
With its directional shape and setback stance, the Chromatic pushes the nose out of powder for enhanced performance.
The medium flex of this board makes it easy to control and provides stability when moving quickly.
The G1 Eco Core keeps the board light, strong, and ensures plenty of pop for jumps and tricks.
Equipped with serrated edges, this board provides a tight edge hold even on the most brittle snowpack.
The co-extruded base of the Chromatic holds wax deep, resulting in increased durability and speed.
