Description

Why We Like The YES. Standard Snowboard

We absolutely love the YES. Standard Snowboard for several reasons. First and foremost, its mid-stiff flex gives it the perfect balance between responsiveness and versatility, making it suitable for various riding styles and terrain. But what truly sets it apart is its innovative design that enhances float and stability on the snow.

This snowboard features a hybrid profile that combines the best of rocker and camber technology. The rocker tips provide a floaty and playful feel, while the camber underfoot boosts stability and control. This combination allows for effortless turns and smooth rides in any snow condition.

But the clever engineering doesn't stop there. The YES. Standard Snowboard has a unique shape that combines a centered twin shape with a lower-volume tail. This design gives it incredible performance in powder, allowing you to effortlessly glide through deep snow.

Another standout feature is the MidBite silhouette. This technology creates a narrower waist, which facilitates lightning-fast edge-to-edge turning. At the same time, the wide tips provide stability during take-offs and landings, making it ideal for park riding or hitting jumps.

Details

Aside from its impressive design, the YES. Standard Snowboard is packed with technical features that enhance its performance. It features a CamRock profile, which combines responsiveness and float. The directional volume keeps the tip width consistent while lowering the tail volume, resulting in improved balance and maneuverability.

The snowboard's flex is mid-stiff, allowing it to excel in powder and navigate through trees effortlessly. It is constructed with a lightweight wood combination and bamboo stringers, providing excellent pop and response. The Triax glass construction adds stiffness and responsiveness, making it suitable for fast and aggressive riding.

Lastly, the YES. Standard Snowboard is equipped with a Sintered True base, which delivers superior speed and performance across the entire mountain. Whether you're cruising groomers or carving through deep powder, this snowboard will keep you flying down the slopes with ease.
