CLOSEOUT ITEM!! (May not be available at all locations, while supplies last)
The 2024 Academy Graduate Snowboard is the high end charger in the Academy line. It’s a board meant to be put to the test. This board carves amazing on groomer, holds an edge like no other. It rides everything from park, powder, chutes, halfpipe, rails, you name it, but where it really shines is when riding fast on steep terrain. The response of this board will let you know when you’ve done something right and it will also let you know when you’ve done something wrong. Easy ride snowboards are fun and great, but in the end this board will make you a better snowboarder period. The energy you get from the real deal camber in this board after you land a trick or ride a new line will be better than any feeling you’ve ever gotten on a snowboard. It will never fold on you in harry runs outs, it will always be in control from the top to bottom and when it comes to powder the faster you go the better it feels.

- Extruded Base - Found on most beginner and freestyle snowboards. Durable and made to be easier to repair and maintain.
- Sintered Base - Absorbs and holds wax better for more custom tuning resulting in faster performance but does require more frequent wax application.
BASE TYPE
Die Cut
CORE
The material in the core of a snowboard is typically made of wood or other materials that enhance how the board rides and behaves on snow.
MOUNTING
The insert formation on the snowboard determines if a binding is compatible, how it is mounted, and your range of stance options.
SHAPE
- Twin - The nose of the snowboard is the same shape and rise as the tail to ride the board in either direction and balanced freestyle riding.
- Directional Twin - The nose of the snowboard is the same shape and rise as the tail with the binding inserts set back for more surface area in the nose and versatility when riding in different snow conditions and terrain.
- Directional - The nose is typically longer and/or wider than the tail for float in powder and downhill riding.
