evo.com | Never Summer Snowboards > The Never Summer Proto Swift ST Snowboard brings a new shape to the search for effortless powder flow, blending surf-inspired freedom with hard-charging mountain performance. The 178cm swallowtail design pairs a buoyant nose, stable underfoot drive, and a Rocker/Camber profile to deliver deep snow float, powerful carves, and that unmistakable surf-the-snow feeling. Drop the tail, let the nose rise, and turn every storm day into a lesson in fluid motion. Directional Shape Flex 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) 2x4 Inserts STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass An advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate that has added elastomer stringers between the 0 degree and 90 degree glass fibers (the length of the effective edge). This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates giving our snowboards unmatched strength, edge hold and performance. Most bows use this type fiberglass due to it's unmatched ability to spring back and cast an arrow at a tremendous velocities without breaking. Powersurf Wood Core A high percentage of lightweight Paulownia is combined with Poplar and Birch running down the middle of the core and Poplar along the sidecut edge. Adding strength and the optimum amount of torsional rigidity. THE POWERSURF WOOD CORE strategically combines these woods in crucial areas of the core for a durable yet lightweight feel. | Never Summer Proto Swift ST Snowboard 2027 - 178
