United Shapes Deep Reach Snowboard 2025
Riding the deepest snow is one thing, but getting in and out of the zones where that perfect snow lives can be another. The United Shapes Deep Reach Snowboard has the perfect flex and shape to excel in the transition areas: those chopped up panels on the way to the secret stashes that can make or break your run. Once you get there, of course, this board's in its big-wave element, floating like a cork through the deepest drifts. What sets this board apart from other powder boards, though, is its versatility in less-than-perfect snow: that early rise nose and traditional camber do wonders on groomers and tracked-out snow, too!

Float Core – This magic blend of Poplar and Paulownia with carbon inlays creates a feather-light, float-centric, and responsive core -- for nimble handling and optimal powder performance.
Laminates
Carbon Binding Reinforcement – Added layer of carbon weave placed at binding impact zones for added strength and durability.
Carbon – Center carbon stringer runs tip to tail providing playful backbone and increased stability while keeping overall shape torsionally maneuverable. Woven carbon stringers run from front insert outward into nose for increased nose rigidity and responsive handling.

Terrain
Powder Powder snowboards love powder. Often associated with freeride snowboards, powder boards sometimes feature a wider nose and a tapered narrower tail. The binding inserts, which determine the rider's stance, are often set back on a powder snowboard to help the rider float the tip of the board through the deep stuff. Powder snowboards sometimes also feature rocker, a design element where the tip (and tail) rise starts farther back on the board, which also helps the rider maintain tip float through the pow.

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
More
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.

Flex Rating:
Medium

Flex Rating
Medium The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
