Yes. Optimistic Snowboard · 2021
This is a full camber board with a stiffness rating of 9/10, it's designed to charge. This trusty stead will take you anywhere you want to go with ease. It's "under bite" technology makes initiating turns effortless and it's shorter tail reduces the swing weight making this board VERY responsive for how stiff it is.
Scary, fast, and seriously powerful! The YES Optimistic can be ridden shorter than normal thanks to its extra width and is one stiff monster for charging through whatever you can throw at it! Steeps and pow be warned!!! 9/10 flex. Shorter tail for less swing weight - this stick can shred!
This board is a charger! The stiff flex and sintered base means it rips while holding an edge (underbite edges are excellent in ice as well). The mellow camber profile and reduced volume tail give it pow performance, turning response, and directional prowess!
Weston Eclipse Artist Series Snowboard · Women's · 2022
This board is highly sought after by women who love to ride big lines. A stiffer, directional deck that is meant for riding big mountains and slaying deep powder. Hybrid camber gives you that control when riding fast and hard, yet still adds the float you want in the deep stuff.
Kemper Snowboards Apex / Snowboard · 2021
The best of both worlds with camber and rocker gives you the pop without sacrificing the float! This chubby stub of a board is meant to ride a little shorter than your normal size.
Never Summer West Bound Splitboard · 2021
The newest member of the shaper series board family. Designed to be the slayer of pow the gods intended. Fusion rocker offers unmatched pop, grip, power, float, magic, Pokémon, sugar, and spice. Mid to firm flex puts this thing in the right range for playful and fatigue-free backcountry riding. Super damp board will mean less chatter over the hard stuff. Power grip side cut will grip in early morning crust on the decent and offer a really great 4 edge hold on the climb.

Head JR. Rowdy Snowboard · Kids' · 2021
