19/20 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A youth freestyle deck inspired by the award-winning Gnu series, balancing pop and predictability through hybrid camber. It's an all-mountain freestyle board that's forgiving and good for building skills while offering serious performance rather than toy-level.
It's an ideal choice for the transitional stage as a growing youth rider builds their ability.
A closer look

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
A next-generation hybrid camber design combining a camber board's pop and responsiveness with the predictability of reverse camber.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
An FSC-certified Select core and Special Blend fibreglass give a light, poppy flex with uniformity and consistency. It's forgiving and comparatively soft.

Intermediate
A board for riders in the middle ground between camber and rocker, promoting skill building with high forgiveness that suits progressing intermediate riders. Its main target is tweenage riders whose skills are starting to outstrip their parents'.
