Quick overview

The Furberg Freeride is made for the deep days, but holds its own in other conditions. The large radius (+/- 10m) and reverse sidecut with rocker in the tip and tail make this board calm and forgiving. To improve both the powder and piste properties, Furberg has a low camber with rocker in the tip and tail. A perfect match between buoyancy, grip and ease of turning. The small fishtail has enough lift to land a switch every now and then.

Details

PROFILE

  • Low Camber
    The best compromise between the flotation of full rocker, responsiveness and grip of camber.

 

  • Rocker and Reverse Sidecut
    When a board is ridden flat on the snow, a long rocker transition will make the nose of the board impact irregularities with a low angle of incidence and slide over with little resistance. Furberg combined the rocker with a reverse sidecut in nose and tail to maintain this low angle of incidence when riding the board on edge.The long transitions of the reverse sidecut make the board turn more effortlessly since the typical pressure points at the end of the effective edge do not exist. The overall result is a very catch-free and surfy board.

 

  • Long Turn Radius
    It is standard to use a longer turning radius on a freeride ski than on a slalom ski in the skiing industry; however, Furberg Snowboards is the only brand to adapt the turning radius for freeride snowboards. A longer turning radius generates better stability at higher speeds and, more importantly, gives the boards a calmer and more forgiving behavior by distributing the edge pressure over the entire contact length.


CORE

  • Poplar/Paulownia/Ash Core
    Along the edges, Furberg uses ash instead of poplar for improved durability. The rest of the core is a mix of poplar and paulownia, with the lighter wood in less critical areas. 250g and 350g lighter then the Poplar core.


REINFORCEMENTS

  • Triax Fiberglass
    Triaxial fiberglass is used to get a good torsional stiffness of the snowboard.


BASE

  • Isosport 7500 Sintered
    Isosport 7500 Sintered is one of the fastest bases available on the market. The base is 1.3 mm thick, which is thicker than industry standard. This means that you can hit rocks harder without getting core shots and you can stone grind the base more times. The thicker base does add a few grams on the weight, but more importantly it gives the board a much longer life.


TOPSHEET

  • Isosport Brushed Polyamide Topsheet
    The Isosport Polyamide topsheet is one of the most durable topsheets on the market. The texture makes the topsheet very scratch resistant and less snow sticks to it. Furberg also makes all their topsheets in light colors to further avoid snow sticking to them. Dark colored topsheets get warmed up more by the sun and therefore more snow will freeze to them. This is a simple, yet effective way to save weight without compromising on durability and performance.


SIDEWALL & EDGES

  • ABS Sidewalls
    Provides enhanced durability while keeping the core safe from moisture.

 

  • Rockwell Hardness 48 Edges
    The edges are considerably beefier than the industry standard, to be able to withstand harder impacts without cracking or deforming. The edges are fully wrapped around the board for maximum durability.
