What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying"The Velvet is one of those boards that just feels right from the first run. The C2 Contour Hybrid keeps it catch-free and poppy, and the twin shape means you're comfortable wherever you point it - park, groomers, side hits. The Magne-Traction gives you confidence on firmer snow that you don't always expect from a board with this kind of playful flex. It's a versatile, well-rounded setup for riders who like to keep things creative."Who It's ForIntermediate All-Mountain and Freestyle RidersThe Velvet is built for riders who treat the whole mountain as their creative playground. Its twin shape and soft-medium flex suit intermediates looking to progress their freestyle skills, as well as all-mountain riders who want a board that's equally at home on groomers, side hits, and park features. What It's ForAll-Mountain Resort Terrain and Park FeaturesThe Velvet handles groomed resort runs and park features with equal comfort. C2 Contour Hybrid keeps the ride catch-free and responsive across all terrain, while Magne-Traction adds edge hold on firmer snow for riders who want to explore beyond the park. Why We Like ItTwin Shape with Hybrid Contour and FSC Certified ConstructionThe Velvet runs a G Lite 2 FSC-certified Aspen and Paulownia core that's light, strong, and poppy.
