Product Info
Every day in the mountains is its own story. From surprise storms to new friends sharing laughs, our connection to Nature is heightened when we hit the snow together. The Niche Story Snowboard was made by like-minded folks who know this very well. From its eco-friendly construction to graphics dealing with threatened lands, this board is an example of how we can better coexist with each other and our surroundings. With a slight taper and setback stance, this is an all-mountain beast. Traction bumps and a stiff directional flex profile help you hang on in critical situations, with camber-rocker-camber bringing the float and control. No matter where your story goes, this one definitely has a happy ending.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Multi-Camber – A camber medley which gives you the pop and edge control of regular camber with the float of reverse camber. Reverse camber between your feet and camber zones extending to the contact points for a super loose, catch-free feel.
Flex
Flex Rating: 7 – Stiff directional flex pattern. Powerful, snappy, and stable.
Shape
Directional – All-mountain performance with a slight taper. A setback stance and stiffened tail makes for a snappy board that can tackle the entire mountain.
Core
Sustainable Wood Core – A combination of paulownia, poplar, and bamboo.
Laminates
Basalt Stringers – Similar vibration dampening and pop characteristics to carbon fiber, but much more eco-friendly.
Recyclamine® Resin System – Niche's revolutionary new recycling system, utilizing their Snappy Sap Bio-Resin combined with Recyclamine®. All manufacturing wasted and end-of-life products will be reclaimed, recycled, and made into new products.
Snappy Sap™ Bio-Resin – More elastic and snappier than normal resin, it dampens vibrations and has extremely high adhesion properties to help keep your board from delaminating. Traditional resins can also be extremely toxic to people and the environment. As opposed to traditional petroleum-based materials, Snappy Sap is composed of bio-renewable materials from the industrial waste streams of the paper pulp and bio-fuels industries.
Sidewalls
Recycled ABS Sidewalls
Base
Recycled Sintered Base – Fast, strong, and smooth - like a good whiskey.
Edges
Recycled Steel Edges
Magne-Traction® | 7 Bumps – Extra edge contact points give your board more edge control and stability, especially in icy conditions. Working like the serrated edges of a knife, it fixes the "squirrely" feel that can come from reverse camber.
Topsheet
Digi-Print Topsheet – Direct digital print, lacquer-free, matte finish topsheet.
Graphics
Water-Based Inks – Non-toxic, solvent-free, uv-based inks.
Additional Features
Eco-Friendly Construction – From Snappy Sap™ Bio-Resins to recycled materials to sustainable wood cores, Niche's manufacturing process is the most environmentally friendly on the planet.
