2008 Gnu Rider’s Choice Magne-Traction Snowboard — Originally the “factory choice” board, the Gnu Rider’s Choice Snowboard is now designed—and ridden—by pros Zach Leach, Kyle Clancy and Dennis Bonjourno (alias: Sketchy D). This Rider’s Choice comes complete with Magne-Traction geometry for the ultimate high-end freestyle board performance. When combined with the freestyle-friendly twin directional shape, and a new-for-2008 blunt tip/tail shape, Magne-Traction construction is unstoppable. You’ll be unstoppable too, thanks to the sinfully fast Sintered 9900 Base, UHMW Sidewalls and feather light Mervin AG1 Core. And for the 1980s-licious graphic, Soldier Design plundered the musical antiquities to produce a raw mosaic collision of full-scale musical revelry. Jib a few (hundred) rails to celebrate the fine art of mix tape personalization, not to mention quality kick-ass freestyle performance, with the pro-designed 2008 Gnu Rider’s Choice MTX Snowboard.

Twin Directional Shape, Sandwich Construction
Magne-Traction — Revolutionary snowboard geometry (licensed from Lib Tech) based on the needs of a snowboarder. Better edge hold, better freestyle, and all-around easy to ride
-
Mervin AG1 Core — Lighter. Stronger. A perfect combination of Aspen wood, ultra lightweight genetically-altered wood core and Eiss 9 Sidewalls
-
EISS (External Internal Sidewalls System) 9 — Tough UHMW sidewalls on the exterior laminated to 9, count ‘em, N-I-N-E layers of endgrain birch on the inside. The end result is a bombproof board that rules on rails and promises massive pop with ultra light spin weight.
-
Quasi-Isotropic Fiberglass — 4-way fiber orientation, combining triaxial and biaxial glass for maximum pop and control
-
Sintered 9900 Base — Continuous compression formed for molecular elongation preserving its amorphous polymer blah blah Science blah maximum wax absorption and durability. Tough + Fast
