The 2024 Gnu Banked Country continues its legacy as a directional, all-mountain power-house of a snowboard, and when you see who designed and refined it, it's not hard to see why. Father-son duo, Temple and Cannon Cummins racked their brains to create this super-charged, fine-tuned ATV that was created to achieve one goal; a gold finish at the Legendary Mt. Baker Banked Slalom. The updated shape for 2024 features an oversized floaty nose, mixed with powerful construction, a cambered setback stance, and the exclusive Progressive Pro Magne-Traction tech, the Banked Country will get you ripping all over the mountain and make you feel like the legendary Billy Goater himself.
