Never Summer Ripsaw Snowboard 2016

This isn't a pow-destroyer, groomer-ripper, or park destroyer. This is the Ripsaw. Unlike you're niche board, anything tossed at the Ripsaw is shredded into oblivion. This all-mountain bomber features a unique Ripsaw Rocker Camber Profile which doubles the amount of camber from NS's original Rocker Camber Design for increased snappiness while carving through pow, chunder, corn, or groomers. Utilizing a SuperLight Wood Core, the Ripsaw doesn't have extra baggage holding back its performance and keeps a playful and lively attitude when you're tackling the big stuff. Show Mother Earth some appreciation by shredding everything she's got to offer with the Never Summer Ripsaw Snowboard.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Ripsaw Rocker Camber ProfileThe Ripsaw Rocker Camber Profile features enhanced cambered areas for aggressive edge hold and tremendous pop while maintaining the versatility of Original Rocker Camber.

3 Pressure PointsThis snowboard has 3 Pressure Points. Pressure points make your board perform; The Rocker Camber gives you high pressure between the feet. This pivotal point gives your snowboard a playful feel that performs exceptionally in powder and when freeriding. With extra stability, precision and edge hold your turning abilities are enhanced too!

Flex

FirmStiffer core for control and response at higher speeds and in bigger terrain.

Shape

True Twin

Vario Power Grip SidecutThe Vario Power Grip Sidecut enhances edge hold from the multiple radiuses that create contact points. The sidecut features a flat area where the snowboard is rockered for better flex and to prevent edge-catching. Towards the end of the snowboard, the sidecut is deep to render quick turn initiation.

Low Profile Tip/TailA low profile in the nose and tail of the snowboard maximizes material contact with the snow for more powerful ollie/nollie pop and stability to your landings. Low Profile Tip/Tail also reduces the plowing effect in the nose for better glide to the next feature and superior float when it's deep.

Core

NS Custom FlightcoreDesigned and built in NS’ woodcore facility, these cores fuse premium hardwood and ultra light 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 snowboards can deliver.

Laminates

RDS 2 Damping SystemThis lightweight system uses three narrower laminated damping layers that provide the perfect combination of vibration, absorption and stability. RDS 2 is the perfect balance of freeride stability and freestyle liveliness.

Bi-Lite FiberglassBi-Lite fiberglass is strong, durable and made of lightweight glass fibers. This delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing the snowboards impact resistance.

Carbon VXR Laminate TechnologyCarbon VXR extends carbon fiber V's out from the inserts to the effective edge for quick response while stiffening the board torsionally. Additionally, V's are positioned to the ends of the board providing maximum boost and pop when loaded up. This is an ideal layup to transfer energy to the end of the effective edge, tip/tail and still give the board a softer more forgiving mid-flex for torsional control.

STS Pre-tensioned FiberglassNever Summer's STS Pre-tensioned Fiberglass is an advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate. The added elastomer stringers between the 0° and 90° glass fibers produce a stronger bond between the laminations.

+/- 45 Fiberglass Laminate

Elastomeric Underfoot StabilizersElastomeric underfoot stabilizers directly below the mounting area provide optimum vibration absorption and increase high-speed stability while reducing foot fatigue.

Sidewalls

Sintered P-tex SidewallNS 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.

P-Tex Tip and Tail ProtectionBoards with P-tex tip/tail protection have UHMW plastic, or P-tex, which is a softer molecular material, that not only seals and protects the wood core, but also absorbs vibration and impact.

Base

Durasurf Sintered 4501 BaseCrown Plastics has been the industry leader in sintered materials for over 36 years and has created the Durasurf 4501 sintered base exclusively for Never Summer. This new high-density base is extremely fast and will provide unmatched performance and durability.

For hardpack days in the pipe, use the DialFLAD™ to crank up your forward lean angles for heightened heelside turns. Even hard landings will be mellowed out thanks to Burton's AutoCANT SensoryBED™. Comprised of plush EVA and injected with B3 Gel for a vibration free ride, all day. There is no doubt you'll be flying past your buddies with the Burton Cartel Snowboard Bindings.

Product Details

Flex

Flex Rating: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)This mildly stiff model helps riders make quick, technical maneuvers, even at high speeds. Great for all-mountain carving, powerful freeriding and charging through the terrain park.

Baseplate

B3 GelIn the footbed, B3 gel dramatically dampens vibrations and absorbs impacts. Formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temperatures.

Dampening PadUnder the baseplate, EVA absorbs vibration and impact while reducing the footprint of the binding on the board. Ultimately improving the board's flex and feel.

Single-Component BaseplateExtremely lightweight - 30% Short Glass and Nylon Composite create a consistent response and feel for all-terrain domination.

Re: Flex™ FootbedFully cushioned with EVA underfoot to encourage a natural and comfortable stance position. This anatomical boot-to-binding alignment maximizes comfort and board control while reducing fatigue. The trap door design makes it easy to access mounting hardware.

Highback

Canted Living Hinge™ Hi-BackBurton created a lightweight, minimal hardware hi-back that allows you to adjust your forward lean and rotation separately. In addition, the hi-back offers an ergonomic (canted) design. For you this means a seamless interface that contours to you and your snowboard boots, providing unmatched comfort and board control.

DialFLAD™Use the tool-free DialFLAD™ feature on your hi-backs for a quick and easy forward lean adjustment.

Zero Forward LeanRiders who prefer a more playful relaxed feel will love Burton's Zero Forward Lean hi-back design element. You can still crank them forward for the pipe or gnarly carving.

Straps

Reactstrap™Minimal, lightweight and low-profile. Burton's Reactstrap™ has a 3D curved, triple axis spine that wraps around your boot for exceptional grip which results in improved response.
