SNOWBOARD HSP TAKAHARU NAKAI 2025
Description anglaise fournie par le manufacturier:
The HPS Taka EP is a soft and nimble freeride board with an extra-long nose and a tapered tail for superior float on the deepest days. While this board is intended to be ridden 3-5 cm longer, it remains extremely agile and maneuverable in everyday conditions thanks to a tapered directional shape and Powder Camber paired with a radial sidecut.
Product Details
Rocker Type: Powder Camber – Camber between feet for carving and precision, and huge rocker in the nose for flotation in very deep powder.
Flex: Flex Rating – 3 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)
Shape: Tapered Directional – Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
Radial Sidecut – Radial is the classic sidecut for consistent response forward and switch.
Core: Ghost Green Core – Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light paulownia wood.
Popster – Popster's shaped core profile is strategically milled inside of the insert packs, allowing the board to flex more naturally underfoot and transfer energy into the nose and tail for added pop.
FSC® Certified Wood Core
Laminates: Ghost Carbon Stringers - Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light paulownia wood.
ABC Wrapper – More dampening, less plastic ! ABC Wrapper is a process using wood veneers to reduce fiberglass in each board.
Biaxial Medium Density Fiberglass – Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls: Bamboo / Cork Rails – The liveliness of eco-friendly bamboo, mixed with cork composite for the best direct feel and dampening ride in the industry.
Base: Sintered EG – Engineered for a super fast glide in everything from fresh pow to sticky spring snow. Sintered material provides superior wax retention, Gallium strengthens impact resistance, and the Electra finish gives a turbocharged glide
Fine Stone Finish – Fine stone finish helps speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
Edges: All-Mountain Edge Bevel – A 1° edge holding tune throughout the key parts of the sidecut meets a 2° bevel between the feet. This delivers the most solid edge hold with no hang-ups.
Binding Compatibility: 2 x 4 Insert Pattern
