Jamie Anderson thinks asymmetric shaping is where it's at when it comes to freestyle boards, and GNU is out to prove it with the new and decidedly earthy GNU Eco Choice Asym C2 BTX Snowboard. Built in the USA's most environmentally-friendly snowboard factory, the Eco Choice uses an FSC certified wood core and a Bio Beans topsheet, along with water-based screen inks, non-toxic resins, and recycled sidewall plastics. Not to mention that this board kicks ass on the snow.
C2 BTX – Rocker between your feet combined with radial cambers out to the contact. Freestyle freedom and carving of rocker between the feet for a more aggressive ride.
Flex Rating: 4.5 - 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – A medium flex ideal for a wide variety of conditions, from groomed runs to powder.
Asymmetrical – The human body is asymmetric. Turn mechanics on a toe and heel side turn are completely different. Gnu builds in asymmetric balancing concepts to each side of your snowboard harmonizing with nature and creating a more efficient, less tiring, unreal ride.
True Twin – A true twin snowboard shape is ideal for riders who want to ride switch or play in the park. The nose and tail are identical and the flex is evenly distributed throughout the entirety of the board. True twins are perfectly symmetrical.
Aspen / Columbian Gold / Paulownia
Tri-Ax / Bi-Ax – A glass and fiber reinforcement combination to give the snowboard a long life and plenty of pop.
Recycled UHMW – Ultra High Molecular Weight exterior sidewalls made from soy-based elastomer are laminated to five internal wood layers for totally bombproof sidewalls.
Sintered – This base material was made through an environmentally-friendly process without the use of toxic solvents or curtain coats. Compression hardened amorphous UHMW creates the toughest, fastest best wax holding base material around. For best results, wax regularly.
Magne-Traction® – Unreal edge hold; 7 strategically located and sized edge serrations provide unreal edge hold and control in all conditions.
Bio Beans – No toxic chemicals or coatings, just beans! GNU has made a commitment to using new earth friendly, bio-plastic top skin made from beans that feature the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any topsheet in the industry.
