3BT (Triple Base Technology)
3BT can be likened to a boat or a pair of aircraft wings being shaped in a specific way to handle the environment in the best way. It is a unique design of the snowboard's nose and tail to prepare the board on all the challenges the mountain will bring.
The base of a 3BT snowboard has raised edges that make the board easier to ride and to make it playful and versatile. Between the bindings, the board is flat like other brands, but outside the bindings, things start to happen. In the nose and tail, it is a big lift that decreases the closer you get to the bindings. 3BT makes the snowboard forgiving, easy to turn and controllable with a better float in pow. A snowboard with 3BT thus becomes very all-round and inspires self-confidence so that you can push yourself Stiffer!

Construction:
Directional Twin 3BT: A versatile 3BT-profile to provide power and response.
BI AX LAMINATE: Fiberglass reinforcement above and below the core. Gives the board strength, pop and response.
Core Core: A core consisting of poplar and beech Stiffwood to get extra pop.
Super Tubes D.S.T: Reinforcement along the center of the board to provide better pop.
HYPER GLIDE S: A sintered base that is fast but still does not require too much maintenance.
FlexWalls: Poured-in Urethane Sidewalls allows for better bonding of the sidewalls to the core, creating a more durable snowboard. On top of this, the unique dampening capabilities of Urethane create a much smoother ride than traditional sidewalls.
Sidekick: Extra raised edges for an even more forgiving experience. Especially noticeable in uneven terrain and in landings on the nose and tail.
