The Korua Shapes Pencil is an ideal choice for anyone who loves effortless carving in any condition imaginable. The Pencil can hold an edge with the best of them when powering through a turn but still offers a more playful feel thanks to its swallowtail cut out. The torsional stiffness, mixed with the taper makes it quite natural feeling while carving edge to edge while its pointed nose keeps your speed up when coming out of a turn in powder while keeping spray out of your face.
Board Type: Freeride
Ideal Conditions: Any
Riding Level: Beginner - Expert
Camber Type: Float Camber
Float camber is a blend of traditional camber throughout the body of the snowboard with an early rise in the nose. This provides stability and power while riding but also gives lift in powder to improve float and power while maintaining your turns.
Flex: 7/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Shape: Tapered Directional
This board has a wider nose and narrower tail to help with float in powder and provide forward facing performance. This taper helps to provide agility in your turns and adds float in deep snow.
Core: Poplar Light
Fibreglass: Biaxial
Base: P-Tex 2000 Sintered
Sintered bases do the best job keeping you moving fast by absorbing the most wax. Keep them waxed regularly to get the most out of your board.
