The Matriarch Snowboard uses an Alpine V4 camber profile built to flex playfully off natural features while holding a stable, floaty line through deep snow. A higher traditional camber through the mid-section delivers pop and drive, while elevated contact points and big-radius tip shapes keep the nose up in soft conditions without going vague underfoot. A Transcend Core reinforced with full-length Bamboo Power Beams keeps the chassis light and responsive, adding power transfer exactly where a rider needs it through variable terrain. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I pop off a natural feature expecting the landing to feel unstable in a board built this playful, and it holds. The elevated contact points keep the nose up through soft snow right after, so I never have to choose between popping something and floating the line that follows."
