Atomic Japanese Import: This board was produced by Atomic Snowboards Japan. As this is a Japanese import, these are not for sale anywhere else in the United States. The board is still award-winning Atomic quality, but this is a specialty import, and since its a Level9 exclusive, the price is insanely low. Atomic Board Flex Rating: 3: Atomic's Flex Ratings go from 2 (soft) to 8 (stiff), so this board is on the lower end of stiffness. Softer boards require less muscle to turn, and will be smooth and stable at a lower range of speeds. Soft snowboards are also much easier to manhandle in the halfpipe and terrain park. At a rating of 3, this rider would most likely be a beginner to intermediate rider, or a more advanced rider looking for a fun, easy terrain park board.

Atomic's Pop Rocker ET (Easy Turn): Atomic Pop Rocker ET is the best rocker profile for the snowboarders who are just learning, as the rockered sections in the tip and tails make the board easier to turn (requires less power from the rider), and also make the tips and tails virtually immune to edge catching. For riders looking to gain confidence, this is definitely the rocker of choice from Atomic.
4400 Easy Care Extruded Base This base type is highly durable, requires very little maintenance and will keep your board sliding nicely down the mountain. Since a lot of people ask, when we say "very little maintenance" that pretty much means get your ride tuned once preseason and you're good to go.
2.5 Degree (Park) Bevel: The 2.5 degree bevel eliminates rail and kicker hangups and lets you stick landings on spins that you didn't quite spin enough.
Truth 1 Wood Core Truth1 uses 100% Poplar for a consistent flex tip-to-tail, and long-term durability.
Biaxal Sandwich Construction: While stiffer than a Cap construction snowboard, this Biax Sandwich board is torsionally soft to help the rider manhandle the board and gain confidence. |
