Product Info
Forum Manual Snowboard: Riders who want an amazing, unrivaled jib snowboard will seek out the Forum Manual Snowboard. The shape is perfectly symmetrical with a long running length and short nose and tail. The Forum Manual’s short tips reduces “hooking” the nose or tail when jumping onto rails and obstacles. The long running length means you can downsize about three to four centimeters from your normal size snowboard. Shorter means lighter and in turn; easier to ollie. The Forum Manual’s Biax glass delivers smooth flex for kicked-up pressing, from street jibs to the terrain park fun boxes.

Terrain
Freestyle Freestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for snowboards, and still popular among high-level park and pipe riders because it offers maximum energy and pop. A cambered board has a smooth arch underfoot and touches near the tip and tail when unweighted; when the rider’s weight is added, it provides a long, evenly pressured running surface and edge.
