evo.com | Public Snowboards Snowboards > The Public Snowboards Research Snowboard features a directional profile with a cambered design that provides excellent edge hold, control, and pop for confident all-mountain performance. The early rise in the tip and tail offers enhanced forgiveness, with the more pronounced tip rise delivering improved float in powder and smoother turn initiation. This refined camber profile gives you the versatility to handle everything from groomers to deep snow with precision and ease! 2 x 4 Insert Pattern Urethane Sidewalls More durable against impact on rocks or rails to prevent your board from delaminating when you get caught slippin' in the park or backcountry. Flex Rating 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) Sintered Base More porous for maximum wax absorption, and more abrasion-resistant. In other words, it makes the board faster and more durable!
