Jamie Anderson has a Free Spirt. That is the secret to her success in competitions around the world. This is the board she chooses when she’s not competing, but living life to the fullest, with no limitations, no judges, no boundaries. Her Free Spirit floats in pow, stomps big landings, and navigates variable terrain with effortless ease. It shreds the resort and beyond with a C3, camber dominant contour, Magne-Traction®, and a volume shifted profile. Eco sublimated graphics on Gnu’s clear nylon bio beans topsheets feature Sarah King’s magical mountain scene and our sustainably harvested FSC certified wood cores. The Free Spirit floats above it all, like Jamie, in a state of zen, at one with the snow and in harmony with nature.

Profile:

Camber

Precision, control and pop.

The side profile of camber looks like a rainbow. Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Adopted from the bend of alpine skis, camber snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop due to the bend in the board, providing better jumping characteristics. Advanced riders tend to prefer this bend, especially for hard carving and high-speed riding. Even when it comes to softer park snowboards, camber boards deliver exceptional pop and control.

However, they are not as forgiving of mistakes and can be more difficult to learn or progress on than a rocker or hybrid bend.

Shape:

Directional

A smooth, reliable ride.

Directional shapes generally feature a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail. These shapes thrive in an all-mountain environment, as they possess the ability to ride more smoothly than their twin-tip counterparts and behave more reliably in variable snow conditions, anywhere from choppy snow to deeper powder. More twin-looking directional shapes where the difference between nose and tail appear minimal will perform best as crossover freestyle snowboards for those looking to still access the park, while more exaggerated differences will excel for additional float in deep powder.

Base:

Sintered

High-end base material that is harder, more durable, and faster than extruded bases.
