Side Hit Euphoria™ has generally been considered an enlightened state. Understood as real on a conceptual level, yet intangible to most that lack an understanding of the methodology required to produce such an experience.
Now, the existential joy of enhanced board control and massive ollie-pops is attainable to all. The all-new Aeronaut series was designed in collaboration with The Rocket Man, Arthur Longo. The goal: to introduce the local-resort maximizer. The result: a semi-old school, respectful nod to the 90s; a directional, cambered snowboard that can meet the most demanding all-mountain pursuits your resort has to offer.
With high-grade components like a HyperDrive™ ADV base, Amplitex V-TECH Amplifiers, and a lightweight and extremely durable Panda Hover Core™, the Aeronaut has the power to charge through terrain at high speeds and pop off any enticing features.
RIDER TYPE: All Mountain
Shape: Directional
Flex: Stiff
Ability Level: Intermediate / Advanced
CAMBER
The ALPINE V3 profile has a deeper traditional camber that zeros out before the end of the sidecut. The small zero camber sections provide a more controlled ride while retaining the response and power of a throwback cambered board.
SHAPE
Directional Shape
Progressive Sidecut – This sidecut consists of two or more radii blended together to accommodate the three stages of a turn. It provides easy turn initiation while offering greater control throughout the turn and maximum power while exiting.
CORE
LAMINATES
Holysheet™ Fiberglass – The HOLYSHEET™ fiberglass configuration features fiber weaves with a high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity. With a higher roving count in the same weight of glass, you can have a stronger and more responsive board without adding extra weight. It features Triaxial fiberglass on top of the core and Biaxial fiberglass beneath, creating a perfectly blended ride while increasing strength and durability.
Magic Bean Resin – This advanced resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw material and is produced with no waste or greenhouse emissions. In production, it has a low-temperature requirement with a high yield output. Poppy, powerful, and extremely durable, MAGIC BEAN™ resin yields much stronger and more rigid qualities allowing a decrease in the wood core thickness. This means you get a lighter board while achieving higher energy return.
Amplitex™ V-Tech Amplifier – Amplitex™ is a next-generation natural flax fiber woven with carbon strands that is featured in high-end snowboard constructions. This fusion tape brings the best of two worlds: the reactive energy of carbon and the lightweight and dampening aspects of flax. The two fibers are highly compatible since they have similar properties regarding thermal expansion and failure strain, creating a uniformly flexing reinforcement that's light, snappy and durable all in one.
