Product Info
GNU Street Series BTX Snowboard 2009: Do you ever wish you could just put a spell on your skateboard to turn it into your snowboard for the season? Well, now you don’t have to pay off that old hag on the street corner with your first born. The Gnu Street Series board is skate inspired. This is an urban jib Banana board with Magne-Traction in a mid- wide, twin freestyle shape. Banana tech jibs like no other with higher ollies and deeper presses. Don’t let the name fool you though - this board also kills the pow and everything else you might encounter.
Product Details
Other Features
True Twin Shape with Banana-Traction: BTX: Banana Technology and Magne-traction combined – Banana is revolutionary snowboard geometry (licensed from Lib Tech) featuring a “banana” rocker between your feet and flat to the tip and tails. The middle of your board is brought to life and the ends become more catch free to float or climb through tight transitions. Magne-traction gives you better control and edge hold with multiple points of contact on your edge. Slice through any snow condition, think of Magne-traction as a serrated knife blade cutting through the snow.
Sandwich construction with UHMW Sidewalls
Biaxial Glass: 2-way fiber orientation that is engineered to make the difficult easy.,Mervin A.5 Core: Full Aspen core with EISS 5 edge pop.
Graphics: Featured “Street” artist for 2009 is Rich Jacobs, an internationally acclaimed artist based out of San Francisco.
Wax Infused Base: A dual layer sintering process – the base layer of sintered material literally has One Ball Jay wax built in. New was is being exposed at the exact rate you ride.

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. Freeride Freeride snowboards are designed for the rider that spends most of the day off groomed runs and in backcountry terrain. They typically have a stiffer flex and are ridden in longer sizes than freestyle snowboards. Freeride snowboards often feature a directional shape that is designed to perform optimally in one direction.

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.
