Deep Dive
Why We Like The Yes. Pick Your Line Snowboard
The Yes. Pick Your Line Snowboard gives us the freedom to choose our own adventure on the mountain. With its tapered directional shape, this board is designed for high-speed descents, powder slashes, and aggressive carves. The mostly camber profile provides a powerful and lively ride, while the subtle rocker at the ends adds float and forgiveness. Whether we're riding steep terrain or deep snow, the tapered tail and setback stance keep us buoyant and in control.
One standout feature of this board is the UnderBite technology. By pulling in the edges directly alongside the bindings, this innovative technology redistributes pressure to the tip and tail contacts. The result is enhanced edge hold and drive, especially when carving at high speeds.
