Never Summer R.I.P Edge Hold Technology

R.I.P is an edge-hold technology exclusive to Never Summer snowboards, made possible by their new Triple Camber snowboard profiles. Both Triple Camber Hybrid and Triple Camber Recurve profiles feature R.I.P. Edge-Hold Technology. R.I.P. does not use the traditional bumpy sidecut found in other edge technology, the kind that protrudes from the sidecut of the board, which causes drag when on edge.

R.I.P Edge-Hold technology uses waves that come from the base down toward the snow.

This provides pressure when on edge and will flow more freely while providing superior edge grip.

Increased Glide
By lifting the base in strategic areas, R.I.P. minimizes friction between the board and snow. It acts as a permanent, maintenance-free base structure. This design allows for smoother, faster riding while maintaining grip and stability across various terrains.

Reduced Drag
There are no bumpy protrusions jutting out from the side of your board interrupting your fluid carves and slowing transitions. Our sidecuts, combined with Hybrid Triple Camber or Recurve Traditional Camber eliminate the drag and result in a smoother, faster ride with effortless transition from edge to edge.

Grip on Ice
The added camber zones in profiles that have R.I.P create high-pressure contact points along the edge, allowing the board to bite into icy surfaces with precision. This enhanced edge hold provides superior grip and stability, even in the toughest, most firm conditions.

Confident Stability
The combination of multiple contact points and strategically placed camber zones ensures the board remains locked in and responsive, offering a solid, stable feel underfoot. This design boosts rider confidence by maintaining control and balance at high speeds, on catwalks, and traversing.

Straight Tracking
The camber zone between the bindings creates a stable platform in the center of the board, helping it track straight and true, especially on flat sections or when coming off the lift. This design reduces saucering and enhances stability for a smoother, more controlled ride.

Complete Balance
R.I.P. Edge Hold Technology strikes the perfect balance between grip, glide, and stability, seamlessly blending the benefits of camber and rocker profiles. With its innovative design, R.I.P. delivers confident edge control, reduced drag, and effortless tracking, ensuring a versatile ride that performs across all conditions and riding styles.
