Souly Grail Snowboard

Directional boards are designed to travel forward. The Shape differs from front to rear, whilst the flex, sidecut and stance are setback from the centre. Directional boards have a longer nose and shorter tail; this increases lift and float. The setback stance and flex enhance carving performance.

Taper is where the nose of the board is wider than the tail. Taper has two main benefits. Firstly and most importantly, it allows the tail to sink in deep snow, making powder riding easy. Secondly it makes turn exit smooth as the sidecut fades out at the narrow tail.

Ultra–wide, low–rising tips that exist purely to create lift in powder without sucking-up speed. They add a surfy feel to snowboards

A convex nose profile which improves tracking and fluidity in three-dimensional snow. To retain responsiveness, the contact points are not lifted.

Swallow tail splits the tail of the board into two sections with a gap between them. This gap helps sink the tail of the board in deep snow by releasing the pressure of the snow, so it has little float, allowing the nose to rise. It can also add whip out the back of the turn, as the forks deflect more than a traditional tail shape.

Stainless steel in the tail edges prevent rust and protect against consequential delamination, ensuring durability while keeping traditional steel elsewhere for the perfect balance of tunability, flexibility, and performance.
