A mid-flexing twin with tons of snap, crackle and pop, the Sims Distortion Snowboard lets you crank it past "11" and alter the tone of your snowboarding world. Transform Camber - a cambered profile with a flat section between the bindings - delivers both edgehold and the easy surfy feel you love, and a Double I Carbon infusion gives this board tons of energy when you load it up and drop the hammer.
Transform Camber – Transform Camber combines the best of both flat and traditional contours, offering the secure edge hold of conventional camber and the loose flexibility of flat camber for a lively, intuitive ride that feels free yet controlled.
