Of all the tricks and tweaks, it is the feeling of turning a snowboard in powder that hooks most riders. The Solo is our modernization of the Sims 1983 FE. We’ve updated the outline and juiced the construction with the technologies of today to offer a ride from the past that is so dang fun it feels like it must be from the future. An
Set back Pow Camber starts right after the
MOD 5 core is enhanced with Sims Directional Wave Form. We slightly increase core thickness underfoot for even flex and heightened dampening characteristics, the taller profile also providing increased leverage when rolling the Solo onto edge.

The NUB is a freerider’s freestyle board and a freestyler’s freerider board. The Long Nose Twin shape and progressive side cut make it look like a directional board, even though it is a twin tip based on the contact points. It rides and lands switch without the twitch of directional shapes. The long nose provides plenty of float in the powder, and the optimum stance puts you in the sweet spot of the traditional camber and side cut. The NUB is the favorite board of team riders John Jackson, Scott Blum, Keegan Valaika, and Shuhei Sato.
MOD 4 construction features a blend of poplar, bamboo and Paulownia wood with thin bands of bamboo wood running along the edges for increased edge hold and stability at speed. Sims Twin Wave Form technology takes core construction one step beyond by thickening the core under the binding hole patterns, resulting in greater shock absorption and quicker

The ATVX is a pairing of the legs and body of the ATV with the more voluminous head of the Vanish; our All Terrain Vehicle chassis with a longer, fuller nose outline.
Not so much nose that you can’t go backward though. The All Terrain Vehicle X will walk anywhere like skis, and then, as long as you did it right, turn back into a snowboard. Pretty much magic.
The ATVX has a set back Pow Camber that transitions into an early rise nose above the front contact point. The perfect powder profile for reducing front leg fatigue without losing power. For the ATVX we use our MOD 5 core, overlay tip to tail with two stringers of carbon fiber, and finish with Liten Fiberglass, a
