Never Summer Proto Type 3 Snowboard 2026

Following in the legendary footsteps of the Proto Type Two, the all-new Never Summer Proto Type 3 Snowboard is here to redefine all-mountain domination. Built with insight from U.S. Snowboard Team Rider Chase Blackwell, this board is the result of two years of relentless testing and progression. With a perfected blend of power, pop, and precision, the Proto Type 3 is your go-everywhere, kill-everything weapon. From park lines to steep spines, it’s time to ride what the pros ride.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Recurve Traditional Camber

Flex

Flex6 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Dampness6 (1 Lively - 10 Damp)

Shape

Vario Power Grip SidecutVario Power Grip Sidecut utilizes multiple radii creating extra contact points to enhance edge hold. A flat section in the rocker area provides a broad contact point when flexed, but allows the board to track straight and not catch when unbent. Flanking this straight section are two shallow radii, which provide the second and third contact points. Towards the ends of the sidecut are deep radii which render quick turn initiation and the final contact points

Core

NS Superlite Wood CoreUsing a custom blend of wood species that was designed to be a lightweight yet durable core. The NS SUPERLIGHT WOOD CORE is CNC sanded in Never Summer's custom woodworking facility to a fraction of a millimeter. A tailored flex is perfected, giving the snowboards unequaled performance.

Laminates

Precision Stitched Carbon MatrixThis method involves precisely stitching carbon fiber into specific zones, particularly around the nose, tail, and between the bindings, to align with the board's intended flex and response characteristics. The result is improved energy transfer, increased torsional rigidity, and enhanced control, providing riders with a more responsive and stable ride across various terrains and conditions.

T3 Twin Carbon Mapping EmbossmentAn advanced snowboard construction technology designed to enhance performance by strategically integrating carbon fiber into the board's structure. The carbon is precisely woven and stitched into the core, creating a directional pattern that aligns with the board's intended flex and response characteristics. This design aims to deliver energy exactly where the snowboarder needs it, dramatically improving maneuverability and control.

Sidewalls

Sintered UHMW Polyethylene SidewallsNever Summer was the first snowboard company to use and perfect Sintered P-Tex Sidewalls, and they've never seen one crack. Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, Sintered P-Tex Sidewalls maintain their integrity at any temperature.

Edges

R.I.P Edge-Hold TechnologyNever Summer's R.I.P. (Rocker Integrated Performance) Edge Hold Technology enhances grip and stability across various conditions. This configuration allows for smooth turn initiation, a playful and forgiving feel, and explosive pop, making it suitable for riders who want a board that excels in diverse terrains and riding styles

Additional Features

Early Rise Float MechanicsNever Summer's Early Rise Float Mechanics is a snowboard design feature that enhances floatation and maneuverability in deep snow conditions. This technology incorporates an "Early Rise Nose," where the front contact points of the snowboard are moved closer to the rider. This adjustment eases turn initiation and improves the board's ability to stay afloat in powder
