Riding this board is like driving a subaru in the winter. Not super fast, but very secure on your feet and makes you feel like you're glued to the slopes in any conditions and situations. I've taken this board through all levels of runs in resorts, a little bit of park jumps, side hits, and jibs, and it's carried me... Read more
Ideal for
- Super strong edge hold, rides locked in whether it's flat or carving like crazy
- Decent pop for a very stiff and durable board
- Zero speed chatter at high speeds
Not ideal for
- Needs a longer sidecut to get up to speeds it's truly capable of, go a little bigger to get a speed demon

This board is unreal! The triple camber grips into carves even on ice allowing you to really go all in without worrying about sliding out. Light weight construction and directional twin body makes this one really pop off the side hits and rollers. The RDS dampening system lets you ride all day without getting tired out.

Ideal for
- Carving on variable terrain
- Performs great on steeps and at speed
- One of the best all-mountain boards I've ridden
Not ideal for

PROTO For Real
Originally posted at neversummer.com on Mar 12, 2025Carves Ice and Floats Pow
6’ 3” 265lbs size 12 boot 165x is a good fit. Coming from a full Camber I would Highly recommend the triple camber for anyone looking to switch over. Nice work Never Summer!!! Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful online helping me pick the board. BTW like the graphics on the new Mavrix you brought the bear back!

Love this Board!
Originally posted at neversummer.com on Feb 22, 2025So I'm a old school rider that had been on the same deck for 20 years and bought this as basically my mid life crisis at the age of 45. Honestly can't say enough good things about it. The rocker profile was a new experience and I love it. The thing is so playful and the triple camber gives me so much control in carving it's crazy. Biggest thing is the acceleration. Compared to my old traditional camber, because I can get to the edges so easily it truly feels like I am up to spend in half the time. Seriously great board. I had demoed several before deciding on this one and I recommend it for anybody!

Erik was great!
5 /5
Erik was very helpful in assisting me to pick out my first pair of skis and ski bindings! I am an intermediate-level skier but have always used rental skis, so when looking to buy my own, I didn't have much of a knowledge-base. Erik was very helpful in answering my questions and with narrowing down which skis would be a good fit for me, taking into consideration my height/weight, skill level, skiing strengths and weaknesses, and price range. Thank you very much, Erik!

This was my first time buying snow sport gear of any kind. Tyler used the information I gave him to give me some really great choices and get me all set up with a board, bindings, and a helmet. He was very responsive to my questions and had recommendations for sizes and settings that I would not have been able to figure out on my own. He was great!

Brandon Nailed My Snowboard Setup!
5 /5
Brandon was awesome! He helped me choose the perfect snowboard gear, a Burton Cartographer with boots and bindings. He made sure everything fit perfectly and even scored me a great deal. Super pumped with my setup, the setup worked perfect for Midwest and East coast riding! Thanks, Brandon!

Tyler was super helpful!
5 /5
Tyler made great recommendations and really took the time to understand where my skill level is at and where I intend to ski. Ultimately, I was uncomfortable making the investment without trying the skis first, so I ended up buying a pair that I had rented several times and really liked. I had so many questions and came very close to purchasing skis a few months ago but now I that I have nearly finished this season I have a better idea of what I was looking for!

Nico helped me decide what length Atomic Mavens to get and bindings. He helped me decide that these skis will work on East Coast ice and Jackson Hole powder. I wish Curated was sticking around because it's such a great service. My cousin bought skis bindings and boots last year with curated and is stoked.

Great help.
5 /5
Tyler helped to reassure me on the board I have been eying, while also suggesting the best options for boots and bindings; he never tried to push the most expensive option, but rather gave me a number of choices to consider for myself (and in fact, recommended a cheaper boot option than the one I went with!). He was a great help and I feel confident that he helped me make a solid purchase.

Additional Board
5 /5
I was looking at updating my board and was just looking around. After a quick chat with John to narrow down which board to pick, he made it easier than going into a store. He helped out with an additional discount that no other website could beat. Too hard to pass up a great deal, I bought the board and bindings. Cheers to debuting it before the season ends!

She knew exactly what I was looking for...
5 /5
I already knew what skis I was trying to find, based on the conditions I wanted to ski and also based on my skill level. Not only did she recommend the exact skis that I had been looking for, but she also recommended a better set of bindings than the ones I had previously thought were a good fit. I love that she's a neighbor over in VT while I'm in NH, so she knows East Coast (Ice Coast) skiing like I do. I'm so excited for the deal I just landed on brand new 2025 skis, and I have Shannon to thank for helping me narrow down the perfect fit. I'm just so sad to hear this amazing company is closing its doors, but while the deals are good and before they go, I will be recommending them to everyone I know! Thanks again, Shannon! Happy skiing!

5 /5
Noah helped me tremendously. I kind of knew what I wanted but by asking the right questions, he helped point me in the best direction for my changing skill level and age and kind of terrain I'd be skiing more since moving to a different state. He took everything into account. He gave me choices for each item I wanted---skis, bindings, poles---and put together a perfect curation! I'm super stoked to be able to take advantage of the discounts of course, but I never would've been able to do that or even find such great equipment without Noah's help!
