With such an evocative name, you can imagine that
Its atypical tail has been cleverly thought out, like its shape and flex. It features a directional shape and 20mm taper which improves floating and turning. It is impossible to get covered with snow once on the
Be careful, just because it's small and wide doesn't mean you can't slash and carve with it. Its FSC® Certified Super Fly II® 700G Core provides essential stiffness for versatility and the Triax fibreglass provides a response for all types of riding, from aggressive to soft.
In short, try this



Camber - Flat top : The directional Flat Top profile offers a flat profile with Rocker nose, for stability and a relaxed float, perfect for intense days on challenging terrain.
Shape - Directional (taper: 20mm): Its directional shape is designed with a nose that is slightly longer than tail in order to concentrate pop in the tail, while providing a lot of float, fluidity and control on all terrains and in all conditions.
Flex - Twin : The Twin Flex is perfectly symmetrical from nose to tail for a balanced and versatile ride in a classic or switch style.
Core - FSC® Certified Super Fly II® 700G Core with Dualzone® EGD® and Squeezebox : The Super Fly II 700G core features a stronger, lighter wood to provide a high level of responsiveness and strength, while reducing overall weight. Wood grain is designed with Dualzone EGD and positioned along the edges, under the toe and heel in two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the wood core, for consistent edge hold and enhanced energy.
Fiberglass - Triax® : Triax fiberglass offers versatile flex and response for all types of riding, from smooth to intense.
Sole - Sintered WFO : The WFO sole features specially formulated wax deep into the pores of its high-density, extra-absorbent material, making it extremely durable for season-long riding in all conditions
Technology:
- The Channel® : The Channel® snowboard mounting system is designed to allow you to find the perfect position, and is compatible with the major brands' bindings.
-Frostbite Edges : edges that extend out slightly around the mountings for better edge grip.
- Epoxy Super Sap® Super Sap® is a resin made from biological materials which reduces the carbon footprint by 50% compared to conventional petroleum-based epoxies. Reduced oil consumption means a smaller carbon footprint for every snowboard, which definitely works in our favour.
- Infinite Ride™: a technology which ensures that the snowboard retains its initial flex, pop and behaviour throughout its lifespan.
- Pro-Tip™: the nose and tail are thinner than the rest of the board, for more lightness and improved handling.
La family Tree Pow Wrench n'est pas à sortir dans toutes les conditions. C'est une planche situationnelle. Cependant, dès que les conditions se présentent c'est un phénomène. Sa forme permet de flotter sans effort, son tail de prendre des virages dynamiques et se faire plaisir. Elle avance toute seule en neige profonde c'est un régal.
Sur neige un peu plus dur ou trafollée on ressent une certaine limite mais elle se laisse plutôt bien faire. On peut s'amuser à prendre de la vitesse et carver sans problème.
Les plus : Portance, look, maniabilité.
Les moins : Presque réservé qu'a la poudreuse.
