Description

Hovercraft Snowboard

Introducing the 2020 edition of the Hovercraft Snowboard. This revamped version features a new shape that not only enhances its appearance but also retains its exceptional maneuverability on deep snow and groomed trails. Its agility is a result of the directional shape, Directional Rocker profile, and long turn radius.

When combined, the directional shape and rocker profile work harmoniously with other innovative features like the swallow tail and 3D Contour Base 3.0 technology to effortlessly glide through deep snow. The cleverly designed spoon technology raises the edges strategically, minimizing edge catches and boosting your confidence, especially in inconsistent snow conditions.

This board also offers exceptional control, allowing you to engage the long side cut with varying levels of energy to achieve different turning radii on powdery forests, challenging terrain, and groomers.

Additional Details:

  • An all-mountain board that combines stability and agility for exceptional carving
  • Directional shape with a powerful swallow tail for precise turns
  • Medium-stiff flex for reliable edge hold and stability
  • Directional rocker profile ensures effortless floatation and solid edge grip
  • 3D Contour Base increases floatation and minimizes edge catches
  • Traction tech provides additional edge hold to inspire confidence on any terrain
  • Poplar core offers responsiveness and durability for consistent performance year-round
  • Quality sintered base ensures high speed across flats and groomers
