Product Info
Time to get wild in the great outdoors with the YES. Pick Your Line Snowboard. Designed by backcountry boss DCP, the PYL features a directional shape and flex with a hair more rocker in the nose. This creates a board that wants to charge hard through deep pow and slash your way down gnarly lines. The wood veneer topsheet and tri/bi-ax fiberglass layup give the PYL plenty of pop and stability in all conditions. Plus, the rad Kowalchuck graphic is perfect for getting after it in the woods. The YES. Pick Your Line is a rider favorite for gnarly backcountry adventures.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Directional CamRock – 4 mm rocker on the nose, 4 mm camber between your feet, 2 mm rocker on the tail. A higher rocker in the nose offers better float in powder, while traditional camber between your feet creates aggressive edge contact and a more responsive release from turns.
Flex
Stiff – Hard-charging, adrenaline-filled fun
Shape
Directional Twin – Having a directional twin shape snowboard is ideal for riders who want to cruise the entire mountain. The nose is just a tad longer than the tail. The design is versatile enough for freestyle, with improved floatation and faster turning in the powder.
Taper, yo! – A slight taper (2mm) helps keep the nose up without loosing the tail's ability to hold on hardpack. Stance is only slightly set back from the center of effective edge because the difference in nose and tail shovel keeps you from going over the nose.
Core
PYL Core – Used exclusively on the Pick Your Line and designed with DCP in mind. Robust Beech rails enhance-edge confidence and high-speed stability while lightweight Poplar trims weight in non-critical areas. This core helps hold highspeed turns anywhere and plow through avy debris with confidence.
Laminates
Triax – Triax laminate consists of fiberglass that is braided in three directions. Meaning it gives the snowboard an asymmetrical flex with lengthwise stiffness. For you, this delivers a snowboard that has tons of pitch when jumping.
Biax – Biax laminate consists of fiberglass that is braided in two directions. The fibers are braided vertically at 90 degrees. This ensures a torsional flex that is more evenly distributed throughout the snowboard. For you, this translates to a snowboard that is easy to handle and jib friendly.
Sidewalls
ABS – Durable, flexible, infinitely reliable
Base
Sintered 2000 – Sintered bases are super fast. Polyethylene pellets are forced together under extremely high pressure. The result is a singular piece of connected pellets with tiny pores across the entire base. Sintered bases absorb hot wax really well.
Die-Cut Base – Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.

Terrain
Freeride Freeride snowboards are designed for the rider that spends most of the day off groomed runs and in backcountry terrain. They typically have a stiffer flex and are ridden in longer sizes than freestyle snowboards. Freeride snowboards often feature a directional shape that is designed to perform optimally in one direction. Powder Powder snowboards love powder. Often associated with freeride snowboards, powder boards sometimes feature a wider nose and a tapered narrower tail. The binding inserts, which determine the rider's stance, are often set back on a powder snowboard to help the rider float the tip of the board through the deep stuff. Powder snowboards sometimes also feature rocker, a design element where the tip (and tail) rise starts farther back on the board, which also helps the rider maintain tip float through the pow.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker shapes seek to give you both hard-carving edgehold on firm snow from camber underfoot with enhanced turnability and float in powder from the rockered tip and tail. This profile is increasingly popular for freeride boards designed primarily for soft snow.

Flex Rating:
Stiff
More
Flex Rating
Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
