Product Info
What are the crucial features for a freestyle board? Lightweight, flexy, catch-free, twin...yup sounds like the DC Focus Snowboard. A 6mm rocker profile makes for playful, lively presses, and the Tear The Roof Off topsheet shaves so much weight it actually gives you wings. Conveniently, these features and a 3° edge bevel also add up to a forgiving beginner board, so whatever your style, strap on the DC Focus Snowboard.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Rocker Profile: -6mm – The board is flat between the stance & curved away from the snow outside the stance, resulting in a playful and forgiving ride.
Flex
Flex Rating – 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
Radius 2 Flat – Flat surfaces at the nose and tail provide essential lift in deep powder while the radius blends perfectly into the sidecut, enabling effortless edge-to-edge transitions while turning.
Core
Stratus Core – Using FSC certified wood, the stratus core consists of smooth flexing poplar with two stringers of beech running down the middle of the board for added strength.
Laminates
Biax Laminate
Base
TrueBase
Edges
3 Degree Bevel – By shaving 3˚ of angle off the traditional 90˚ edge, advantage is gained both for beginners who get a forgiving, catch-free ride, and experts looking for a board that's jib-ready right out of the wrapper.
Topsheet
Tear the Roof Off – DC's proprietary technology for reducing overall board weight. By removing the traditional topsheet, this technology delivers lively flex and increased pop while shaving off approximately 150 grams per board.
Binding Compatibility
2 x 4 Inserts

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
Beginner-Intermediate Whether you’re new to the sport or working on linking smooth turns, you fall into this ability level. Typical beginner skis and snowboards are usually built with softer materials, narrower widths, and feature cap construction for an easy to turn, forgiving ride. Beginner-intermediate boots and bindings are also built for ease of use and progression, featuring softer flexes and in the case of ski bindings, quick and safe release from the ski in case of a fall.

Rocker Type:
Rocker
More
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.

Flex Rating:
Medium
More
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.
