Atomic 2012 Vantage Snowboard

Sale: $149.00
Retail: $299.00

Save 50%
The Atomic 2012 Vantage (and Vantage WIDE for bigger footed riders) is the true center of the Atomic board lineup. This board is a smooth rider on groomers, has a great edge bevel for terrain park riding and the Pop Rocker All-Terrain shape will give you the lift and float you're looking for on powder days. We highly recommend this board for the rider who has some experience under his belt, but maybe doesn't know exactly what he's looking for or doesn't know or care for all the jargon. Jargon aside, if that sounds like you this snowboard is awesome and will be the best snowboard you've ever owned, by far.

Atomic Board Flex Rating: 5: 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 5, the rider of this board would be a progressing intermediate or an advanced rider looking for a suitable All-Mountain flex.

Atomic All Terrain Snowboards: Want to compare this board to some of the other All Terrain Boards from Atomic? Check out or Learn Center to see how it stacks up!


Atomic's Pop Rocker AT (All Terrain) is a rocker shape that offers the benefits of a reverse camber snowboard, such as easier turn initiation and superior float in powder. The Pop Rocker AT shape has a longer rockered section in the nose than in the tail, so when you want to rip groomers fast, you will have a strong edge hold on your heelside (when riding switch, the stronger edge will be your toe-side).


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.




3 Degree (Easy to Ride) Bevel:
The 3 degree bevel minimizes edge catching and builds confidence via a shortened learning curve.


Truth 1 Wood Core Truth1 uses 100% Poplar for a consistent flex tip-to-tail, and long-term durability.

Triadic Progressive Sidecut: A sidecut of this shape allows the rider to ease into wider turns without hooking, then make the turn as tight as desired as the rider accelerates through the middle of the turn and come out of the turn without losing much (if any) energy.

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.
