The 2026 Gnu Antigravity was designed to rip the resort from the very top to bottom, on any given day, under any condition. The mid flexing, C3 directional profile of the Antigravity makes it incredibly stable on groomers, holding an edge like no other, but is still able to handle deep powder with ease. Throw in added contact points through Mervin Magne-Traction and this one board quiver will serve you well every day you are on the mountain (and hey, the price tag isn't bad either!).
Board Type: All Mountain - Freeride
All Mountain snowboards are versatile boards that excel across various terrains, from groomed runs to off-piste. These boards offer solid edge control and responsiveness, making them a great option for riders who want one board to do just about everything.
Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.
Flex: 6/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.
Ability Level: Intermediate
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Shape: Directional Twin
A directional twin snowboard has a symmetrical shape but with a slightly shifted stance, making it ideal for riders who want the versatility of a twin for freestyle, with the added stability of a directional design. It performs well both regular and switch but excels in one direction, offering improved control on varied terrain.
Camber Type: C3
Very mild rocker between your feet with powerful camber to the tip and tail. This is Mervins version of traditional camber, offering maximum edge hold, pop, power and precision with extra float and carve.
Width: Standard, Wide
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Wide boards are for those with large boot sizes and provide extra flotation, reduced drag, and never feel clunky or cumbersome underfoot.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
Board Construction
Topsheet: Eco Sublimated Poly Texture Topsheet
Similar to the untextured Eco Sublimated Poly Top, this topsheet uses eco-friendly sublimation that is strong and environmentally friendly but has texture to it making it stronger and more resistant to snow build up.
Laminate: Tri-Ax/Bi-Ax Fiber
The Tri-Ax and Bi-Ax alloy glass offers a smooth ride while keeping weight low.
Core: G Lite 1 Core
The G Lite 1 core is made of FSC certified Poplar and Paulownia wood for a core that is both easy riding and light. The combination of both creates a core that is light, poppy, and strong.
Sidewall: UHMW Sidewalls
Made of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, this plastic is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and impact
Base: Eco Sublimated Co-Ex Base
This base is made of a fast and tough extruded material that is easy to maintain with a solid sublimated graphic.
Additional Features:
Seven strategically placed serrations along the edges of the board grip onto the snow and hold a strong edge in any condition.
