What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "The Element is that board I grab when I’m not sure what the day will throw at me. It’s playful enough for mellow resort laps but still holds an edge when things get firm. The rocker profile makes turn initiation feel almost effortless."Who It’s For Beginner Through Advanced All-Mountain Riders: The Element is made for riders who want one board that can handle groomers, side hits, powder stashes, and spring slush alike. From newer snowboarders looking for something approachable to experienced riders who want all-day versatility, it strikes the right balance of control and play. What It’s For Everyday Resort Riding with Sidecountry Capability: This board is designed to shine in a wide range of conditions, from crisp hardpack mornings to storm-day pow. Its rocker profile and Grip Tech edges keep turns smooth and catch-free, while the Directional Twin shape ensures stability when exploring all-mountain lines. Why We Like It Balanced Versatility with Edge Confidence: We like the Element because it has that smooth, easy feel of a rocker board without sacrificing stability. The Highland II core and triax/biax layup make it strong yet responsive, while the Grip Tech edges bite into variable snow. It’s reliable, fun, and ready for whatever the mountain delivers.
