Empire

snowboards

In the conquest of new territories

 A true master of slashes and big turns, the Empire evokes the great outdoors. Supple and light, this board to fly in your favourite kind of terrain, the powder. Thanks to its shape and rocker, it has been customised to allow linking wide carves and zooming straight down the large open virgin powder fields. Both the board’s flex and Sintered 8000 Base are apt for this purpose and will make for an equally intoxicating ride on the slope.

«The main idea for the design of this model was to modernise and recreate the sensations of riding a swallow tail.»

Camber
Pop and control plus forgiveness The best of both worlds, the board has a camber between the feet, and symmetrical rocker in the tip and the tail. Camber makes the board more efficient on the slope, more snappy in the park and the rocker allows better floatability in powder snow.
Technologies
  • Woodcore PP2 Dual core

    Lightweight and precise The PP2 Dual core was designed to reduce the weight as much as possible and increase performance levels as much as possible. The blend of poplar and paulownia makes the boards ultra responsive and precise for ultimate versatility.

  • Fiberglass 2D Basalt fiberglass

    Dynamism and lightness A mixture of our traditional 2D fiberglass and basalt strips (added underneath the core), blending the control and response provided by the fiberglass with the lightness and durability of basalt.

  • Carbon V

    Comfort on the edge V-shaped carbon strips place on the tip and the tail of the board improve the rider’s feel on the edge by limiting board torsion during turns.

  • Bases Sintered 8000

    The formula 1 The best base you can get, it’s the formula 1 of gliding on snow.

  • Base Finition Stone Grind

    Increased speed in spring snow Stone-ground bases glide much better on wet snow thanks to the structure that enables water drops to escape more efficiently from under your board.

  • Sidewalls Slanted

    The sidewalls are slanted, made of ABS and are silk-screen printed.

  • Flex Double Flex

    Maneuverable and nimble The wood core has a slight dip in thickness between the inserts to make the board more maneuverable without losing it’s flex and energy.

  • Shape Freeride

    For big mountain riding 100% Directional: A longer progressive tip, significant insert setback, pintail (wider tip than tail), soft tail, and a longer side cut radius make freeride boards more stable and efficient on and off the slope.

  • Edges Power Grip Edge

    Grip is good but only when you need it Bringing your board to the next step of versatility, our new sidecut technology gives you more grip than ever, making your turns on iced or packed snow as precise as a Katana cuts.

  • Waxed Factory Waxed By WEND

    All our snowboards are factory waxed.
