Don't even think about trying to keep up with your ski touring friends on snowshoes or bootpacking. Get the GNU Beast DC3 BTX Splitboard and do yourself a favor. Besides making your uphill journey easier, the Beast DC3 BTX Split also delivers an insanely good ride thanks to the Direction C3 BTX - made for aggressive riders who demand improved floatation, stability and the ability to charge in varied terrain. Magne-Traction™ uses a multi-radius serrated edge design to give you insane edgehold on the inevitable boilerplate you find now and then in the backcountry. Make the terrain you once thought impossible a reality with the GNU Beast DC3 BTX Splitboard.
DC3 BTX – Mild Banana rocker is placed between your feet for carving, edge grip and improved floatation. The tip and tail have maximum pressure camber giving you precise control, power stability, and tons of pre-loaded pop. D is for directional.
Flex Rating: 7 - 7.5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – Freeriding tuned flex for big mountain powder slashing domination.
Directional Twin – Effortless freestyle and freeride geometry. Twin chassis (from contact to contact) but with an ever so slightly longer nose than tail. Floats on powder and blasts through crud, a Twin with an advantage.
Miraculous Aspen – The strong, powerful center beam of all Gnu cores.
Powerful Golden POP-lar – This light, lively wood reduces the snowboards weight while adding a crisp pop.
FSC Certified Wood Cores – FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.
Bi ax / Tri ax – This is a glass and fiber reinforcement combination to give the snowboard a long life and plenty of pop.
