Quick overview

The Gentemstick Slasher is the mellow version of the TT. The TT (Taro Tamai) has been the famed flagship of the Gentemstick range, however the TT is quite narrow for the average rider. The Slasher is the solution to this issue. The larger nose, wider waist and deeper sidecut makes the Slasher way more accessible than the TT. Float and stability are the two pillars on which the Slasher was designed.

PROFILE

  • Flat Camber

  • Shape

The shaping is the most essential factor in board design. The beauty of snowboard design is to create an ideal three-dimensional curve resulting from a harmonizing outline, bottom-line and the actual warping of the board when riding it. GENTEMSTICK's commitment is to create a shape that allows a smooth and stable riding whether in powder or on packed snow. In order to realize this concept, we have adopted classical designs, such as swallowtails, which were already established in the '70s, and modern designs driven by our own experiences.

 

CORE

  • Wood

A full woodcore creates a natural flex and feel.

  • Soul

Having been involved in the snowboarding circle and its promotion for a long time, I could not help feeling awkwardness in the industry. It wasn’t hard for me to turn my back to the temptation and to return alone to the quiet mountain slopes where freedom reigned. When standing in a company’s meeting room or in front of the media with weird glimmer eyes, my thoughtful soul kept telling me to avoid the dangers. Whereas, on the slope, all I had to do is to be alert of the outstanding risks, trust my instinctive decisions and act upon it. I could just be and exist there, just as naturally as the birds circling above me, or as fish swimming along the river flow, and find the one real line to ride.

 

BASE

  • ISO sintered black

This board uses a ISO Sintered base for added speed.

 

TOPSHEET

  • Bamboo/ sandwich

Using a bamboo for a topsheet dampens the ride and offers chatter-free performance. The natural material also eliminates some plastic and lacquer which improves board sustainability.

 

SIDEWALL

  • ABS / single

ABS plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. We improve the sustainability of our snowboards by using only recycled plastic.
