Fangtooth
If you are searching for a dependable board for hard charging and directional riding look no further than the Fangtooth. The swallow tail design allows the tail to drop further into deep snow keeping the nose afloat. The tail design also elongates the effective edge allowing for the more edge to snow contact without making the tail too catchy. The maximum width of the board lies just in front of your front foot to further aid with flotation. This allows you to ride evenly weighted without fear of burying the nose and prevents the dreaded back leg cramps often encountered when riding powder. The traditional 8 meter sidecut radius and longer effective edge gives the board more drive through turns and better grip through turns in varying snow conditions.
Each surfer comes equipped with the grippiest CNC cut foam grip and a coiled leash. The foam grip maintains traction in any conditions and does not clog with snow. The coiled leash is more compact and stays out of the way but stretches to allow for more distance between you and the board during a crash.
Carabiner Clip color may vary.
All boards are built on demand. Due to this nature please allow for two weeks for board manufacturing. We build each board on demand to ensure the highest quality product.

MORE ABOUT THE DESIGN
The turn feels more locked in and similar to powder turns on a traditional snowboard. The wide nose, taper, and traditional sidecut gives the board a very reliable and stable ride making it great for any skill level. The MPH (Modern Plaining Hall) nose mixed with long drawn out rocker lines make the board quick, agile, and floaty. The rock to concave edge gives the edges more bite into the snow when engaged. It also allows the board to have a large waist width while maintaining easy turn initiation. We are able to achieve this by the raised edges and adding flat section down the midsection of the board where the main points of contact are located. This results in the ability ride flat based easily while having the response needed to turn on a dime with the slightest lean. It also gives you the mechanical advantage of leverage over the edge allowing you to dig in the edge better than if the board was flat. The waxable 4001 Durasurf sintered ptex base is of highest race grade quality which will keep you riding fast all season long. Our powder surfers are designed to be ridden much smaller than a traditional snowboard. By changing concave, rocker lines, and width, we are able to achieve incredible float in a much more maneuverable package allowing you to take them anywhere. The powder surfers are great for smaller lines than you would typically ride on a snowboard. They can turn a less than ideal conditions into a fun day by allowing you to ride mellower and different lines. That being said, when heading out into the backcountry use the proper safety gear and precautions. It’s better to skip a day than miss the rest of your days.
