Product Info
GNU Street Series BTX (Kills) Snowboard 2012: Holy street bananas! The GNU Street Series BTX Snowboard comes at you locked, loaded and ready to hit rails, olly, press and jib till you can’t any more. With a BA sustainable wood core and Banana Rocker Technology, the GNU Street Series not only kills it on the street, but also floats magically through the pow.
Product Details
Flex
Flex Rating: 4.5-5.5 (Depending on size) (1 Soft-10 Stiff): This middle-of-the road flex GNU Street Series BTX is an all-mountain beast that lives anywhere from urban jib sessions to backcountry booters and everywhere in between.
Construction and Core
BA Sustainable Woodcore is made of a birch and aspen combination; super damp and dense with solid pop and crud blasting stability and speed.
Banana Rocker Technology (BTX) applies more pressure inward to the edge area at and between your feet. While your stance presses out the rocker, the tip and tail are still flat for enough stability without sacrificing float.
Sandwich construction
Shape
True Twin combined with a centered radial sidecut, means this board rides perfectly in both directions on any terrain
Sidewalls, Edges and Base
Double sintered UHMW sidewalls
Magne-Traction 0.75 Shred technology gives better edge hold and makes for an easier ride. Magne-Traction edges cut into the snow like a knife giving you more edge hold and control. Magne-Traction has 7 distinct contact points strategically placed for tip/tail control while maintaining freestyle freedom
Sintered wax-infused base is ready to rip from day one

Terrain
Freestyle Freestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker

Rocker Type
Rocker A rocker board side profile is the opposite of a camber board, with a smooth downward curvature to it and less edge contact length when the board is weighted. Rocker boards float well in powder and pivot more easily underfoot. They also tend to be less “hooky” at both tip and tail and better for landing spin maneuvers when you don’t quite have enough rotation.
