Why We Like The YES. Hel YES. Snowboard
The Hel YES. Snowboard is our top choice for adventurous riders seeking a high-performing deck that can conquer challenging terrains and deep powder. Its directional twin shape enhances stability and float, while the Slamback inserts allow for a more setback stance. The Directional CamRock profile elevates the nose rocker, providing excellent buoyancy in powder for a blissful surfing experience.
Thanks to its camber underfoot, the CamRock equips the board with superb response and locked-in stability for slicing through chopped-out runs and carving up groomers with ease. Featuring a tri-blend wood core, biax glass, and a resilient sintered base, the Hel YES. is the ideal choice for a variety of scenarios, from backcountry jumps to narrow chutes and even the occasional visit to the park.
