Other Features:
STS Advanced- The world’s best snowboard fiberglass, period. STS Advanced fiberglass is a pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate that has added elastomer stringers between the 0 degree and 90 degree glass fibers the length of the effective edge. This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates giving the snowboard unmatched strength, edge hold, and performance. TDS- The Titan Damping System greatly reduces vibration and provides unmatched high speed stability and control. Thin elastomeric rubber stringers reduce vibration from the metal edge and surrounding laminates. Stringers below the inserts and under the carbon dampen any additional vibration near the bindings, giving the Titan and the Summit a smooth riding feel underfoot without sacrificing snap and power throughout the board.
MicroLam Carbon Techonology- Eight individual layers of fiberglass combined with carbon uni-fibers and pre-tensioned STS glass stringers give the Summit the most advanced structural laminate combination Never Summer has ever developed. The four fiberglass layers closest to the core are 45 degree laminates providing torsional stiffness and edge response. The 4 layers furthest from the core are 0 and 90 degree laminates, giving the board its superior strength from tip to tail and edge to edge. Carbon “V”s above the core provide increased snap, strength, and power out of turns while the STS pre-tensioned glass stringers below the core enhance camber retention and provide unmatched durability.
Sintered P-Tex Sidewall- Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, Sintered P-Tex sidewalls maintain their integrity at any temperature. Durasurf XT 5501- Crown Plastics has developed an exclusive, super fast, durable sintered base specifically for the Titan and Summit. Just the right amount of graphite has been added making the Durasurf 5501 XT base the fastest they’ve ever used.
Tri Radial Sidecut- The Tri-radial sidecut makes use of 3 different primary sidecut radiuses. A moderate center radius between the feet helps to stabilize the board at high sped. The more aggressive front radius, from the front foot to the front edge contact points, initiate turns effortlessly. The most aggressive rear radius, from the back foot to the rear edge contact points, gives the Titan a quick and powerful finish to each turn.
Custom Flight Core- Never Summer’s exclusive Custom Flight Core is the most technically advanced core system we’ve ever used. Designed and built in NS’s woodcore facility, these cores fuse premium hardwood and ultralight softwood laminates together with vertical layers of elastomeric vibration dampers. These lightweight perimeter dampers actually increase vibration absorption the faster you ride while maintaining an incredible amount of snap and liveliness, providing a level of edge hold and high speed performance that only a never summer snowboard can deliver.
