If you’re one of those riders that loves nothing more than charging down the mountain at warp speed, then Amplid’s Snomellier might just be your dream board. As part of Amplids Future Shape collection, this stunning snowboard is undoubtedly the big mountain gun of the collection. Taking full advantage of Amplid’s legendary owner and designer Peter Bauers extensive knowledge of fast snowboarding, this stunning snowboard delivers a powerful and responsive ride both in the pow and on the piste. But, more importantly, its stability at even the highest speeds gives you a level of confidence and control that is nothing short of mind-blowing and encourages you to attack every run like it’s your last. Coming in at a 7 out of 10 for stiffness, the Snomellier is powerful and responsive, but, it’s not overly aggressive to ride and what that means, is that this is a gun that you’re going to want to ride all the time because unlike a lot of boards in this category, it’s not going to be tiring to ride and it never feels like it’s going to kill you if you make any mistakes.
Flotation Tips
Ultra-wide, low rising tips create lift in powder without sucking-up speed. They add a surfy feel to snowboards.
Directional Cruise Camber. Mellow Camber Early Rise in nose
This is the perfect camber-line for no-compromise, all-mountain inspired powder shredding. Subtle rocker in the tips generate lots of lift at low speeds and an out-of-this-world, weightless feel at speed. Underfoot camber transmits power at its best.
CONSTRUCTION
Lite Core with Hexo 2 Honeycomb
Uber light wood varieties are cut, treated and aligned in a way only our factory knows. Its strength to weight ratio has scientists baffled. HEXO2 core replaces specific areas of weightier wood at the tips with featherlight recycled paper honeycomb, practically eliminating swing weight.
Pre Cured Impact Plates
Thick Cut
Pre Cured Impact Plates
Lasercut plates made of pre-cured hard glass are milled out of the core and laid in below the main
laminate. Prevents ugly binding dings.
Thick Cut
Thick Cut Cores have a thicker profile in the tip and tail for several reasons: This flex profile suits a larger variety of rider‘s bio specs, it reduces vibrations and increases stiffness where you need it. The reduced nose and tail deflection improves deep snow float, adds control and increases stability.
Bi-ax glass 0°/90°
Using Biaxial Glass in the construction of our shreds gives them a flawless blend of response and playfulness whilst keeping them ridiculously lightweight.
Carbon Pop Band
A narrow band of uni-directional carbon stringers run through the centreline of the snowboard from tip-to-tail, increasing pop and extending flex memory without altering torsional stiffness.
Sintered 7 Base
Amplid’s ultra-high density sintered base goes like sh**-off-a-shovel in all snow conditions. It is extremely hard and therefore more resistant to damage.
