Dinosaurs Will Die Kwon Snowboard 2020
The all-mountainest board in the DWD stable, the Dinosaurs Will Die Kwon Snowboard has a slight taper, a directional shape, and a setback stance, lending itself to a nose-dominant travel preference. It'll still perform admirably in freestyle situations (it is a Dino, after all), but it's the one you want if you have an eye for natural terrain. With Action Camber, a medium-bordering-on-stiff flex, and a blazing fast sintered base, this is a ripasaurus rex.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Action Camber – For all-mountain assault, this camber is packed with the three main ingredients, portioned out to perfection. Lowrider camber between the inserts for agility and control, transitioning to Goldiecam out the tips with reverse at the contact points, so it all feels easy.
Flex
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
Directional – A longer nose than tail, with sidecut and insert packs that are set back from the center between the contact points.
Elliptical Sidecut – A blend of multiple radii from tip to tail that contours to the mountain, helping initiate turns and shoot you out from the tail.
Core
Poplar Core with Birch Stringers – The benchmark standard in cores. Its used in the entire DWD collection and flex is adjusted for each model with core thickness, camber profiles, and additional tech.
Laminates
Biaxial Fiberglass – A flexible fiberglass layup that is used on the top and bottom of the cores in all of the DWD boards.
Basalt V-Booster – A natural material similar to carbon. Placed in a V formation at the tips, this adds power and pop while reducing chatter at high speeds.
Sidewalls
ABS Sidewalls – Tried and true. An industry-standard thermoplastic material used when creating sandwich construction boards, ABS adds stiffness and increased durability.
Base
Sintered Base – A strong, high density base with micropores that hold wax. It's finished with a structured texture that helps disperse water and slide fast when regularly waxed.
Additional Features
Envir-O-Resin – Plant-based bio-resin containing 60% renewable and raw materials. It consumes less energy during production due to its ability to cure at a lower temperature.

12 Pack 2x4 Insert Pattern

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. All-Mountain All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice. 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.

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/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:
Medium

Flex Rating
Medium 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.
