Product Info

The mad scientists behind the Never Summer Funslinger Snowboard only had one concern: they feared such a concentration of power would cause the board to implode. Taken as a challenge rather than a warning, the NS team outfitted the deck with new-age tech to contain its force and properly named it the Funslinger. Its soft, constant, and durable flex is backed by a secret concoction of carbon and fiberglass laminates, and the Boost Flex Wood Core brings a whole new world of freestyle dominance by minimizing weight. A harmonic damper in both the tip and tail wipes away vibrations for the smooth ride that Never Summer is known for. Lastly, the Ripsaw Rocker balances freestyle performance and edge hold, attacking any feature without mercy. As one of the lightest freestyle boards on the market, the Never Summer Funslinger Snowboard is about break down our definition of freestyle shredding.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Ripsaw Rocker Camber ProfileThe Ripsaw Rocker Camber Profile features enhanced cambered areas for aggressive edge hold and tremendous pop while maintaining the versatility of Original Rocker Camber.

3 Pressure PointsThis snowboard has 3 Pressure Points. Pressure points make your board perform; The Rocker Camber gives you high pressure between the feet. This pivotal point gives your snowboard a playful feel that performs exceptionally in powder and when freeriding. With extra stability, precision and edge hold your turning abilities are enhanced too!

Flex

SoftSoft, forgiving flex tuned for freestyle riding.

Shape

True Twin

Vario Power Grip SidecutThe Vario Power Grip Sidecut enhances edge hold from the multiple radiuses that create contact points. The sidecut features a flat area where the snowboard is rockered for better flex and to prevent edge-catching. Towards the end of the snowboard, the sidecut is deep to render quick turn initiation.

Core

Boost Flex Wood CoreNever Summer's exclusive Boost Flex Wood Core features a new slimmer, streamlined side profile for an ultra-light yet solid feel. This core also provides a more consistent flex down the length of the snowboard for incredible snap and pop.

Laminates

Carbon VXR Laminate TechnologyCarbon VXR extends carbon fiber V's out from the inserts to the effective edge for quick response while stiffening the board torsionally. Additionally, V's are positioned to the ends of the board providing maximum boost and pop when loaded up. This is an ideal layup to transfer energy to the end of the effective edge, tip/tail and still give the board a softer more forgiving mid-flex for torsional control.

FDS Damping SystemSpecifically designed for some of their freestyle models, FDS utilizes thinner rubber foil for a lighter, snappier feel while still providing the legendary NS smooth ride.

STS Pre-tensioned FiberglassNever Summer's STS Pre-tensioned Fiberglass is an advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate. The added elastomer stringers between the 0° and 90° glass fibers produce a stronger bond between the laminations.

Bi-Lite FiberglassBi-Lite Fiberglass combines many of the strength characteristics of their STS fiberglass with an ultra light glass fiber matrix. This delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing durability.

Elastomeric Underfoot StabilizersElastomeric underfoot stabilizers directly below the mounting area provide optimum vibration absorption and increase high-speed stability while reducing foot fatigue.

Harmonic Tip/Tail DamperHarmonic dampers in the tip and tail take out a high percentage of residual vibration by quieting the nose and tail. This enhances stability at speed, in variable snow conditions and on board landings without deadening the liveliness and pop of the cambered areas.

Sidewalls

Sintered P-tex SidewallNS was the first snowboard company to use and perfect Sintered P-Tex Sidewalls, and they've never seen one crack. Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, Sintered P-Tex sidewalls maintain their integrity at any temperature.

Base

Durasurf Sintered 4501 BaseCrown Plastics has been the industry leader in sintered materials for over 36 years and has created the Durasurf 4501 sintered base exclusively for Never Summer. This new high-density base is extremely fast and will provide unmatched performance and durability.
