Designed with a long directional shape and oversized nose, it naturally stays on top of powder while delivering the smoothest, longest turns when charging steeps or open faces. A Surfy CamRock profile pairs extended rocker in the nose with camber through the mid section, creating effortless lift in soft snow alongside precise edge hold and drive on firmer conditions. The lightweight poplar paulownia core keeps the board responsive without feeling heavy, while carbon reinforcements and Triax fiberglass add stability, pop, and vibration control at high speeds. Finished with a race grade N-9000 sintered base and Power Rails construction for extra edge power, The Gun is a stiff, fun riding snowboard built for advanced riders looking for the smoothest ride possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--split--\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBoard Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eFreeride-Powder\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFreeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain.
