Forum The Manual Snowboard 2012
Don’t Read the Manual, Ride It
If your riding is split between park laps and street sessions, the Manual is here to join you. ChillyDog with Pop features the forgiving feel of rocker but has specific pop zones outside your feet and in the nose and tail, which make it a menace to park jumps, while the beveled edges come ready to hit up urban slabs. In any zone, this board will get you up when you need to get down.
Flex and Rider Style:Flex Rating 3 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff) // Keeping it light and playful, the Forum Manual Snowboard will have you thinking you are floating on clouds every time you go riding..
Construction and Core:Popular core - the freestyle feel of Poplar laminates makes this a core with mass appeal. Light, flexible and forgiving with more pop than foam, this core brings the smooth and predictable rip of 100% natural wood to the shredding masses.
Shape:ChillyDog with Pop: playful, precise and poppy.ChillyDog profile features all the stability, predictability and forgiving feel of Continuous Rocker with special focused Pop zones just outside of the stance. The core profile is matched with poppy sections in the nose and tail, softer between the feet. Load up the increased surface area in the nose or tail for awesome ollie power when you need a little extra. // Twin shape allows you to switch things up with ease
Sidewalls, Edges and Base:Biax: with a configuration to make any board smooth, forgiving and fun to ride, Biax is constructed with strands that criss-cross at a 90-degree angle. // FreeBase slick material waxes easy for speed, emphasizes die-cut graphics, and protects the core from getting worked on run-outs through the parking lot. // Bad Ass Beveled Edges are pre-ground right off the rack; forget catching your edge on the rusty rail or rutted-out transition, this 3-degree slant gives you the confidence to stomp the double kink first try.
