GNU Rider’s Choice Snowboard 2026

The GNU Rider’s Choice is an award-winning asymmetrical all-mountain freestyle snowboard, engineered for riders who want playful versatility without sacrificing precision. Featuring GNU’s C2X hybrid camber profile, Magne‑Traction edge tech, and an asym twin shape, it excels everywhere from park lines to steep powder faces.

Why It Works

• C2X Hybrid Camber Profile: Rocker between the feet for float and easy turn initiation, with longer camber zones underfoot for stability, power, and edge hold.
• Asym Twin Shape: Balances power and control between heel and toe turns with a deeper heel-side sidecut for a more natural, effortless feel.
• G Lite 3 Core: FSC-certified Aspen and Paulownia blend with lightweight balsa for pop, response, and reduced swing weight.
• Tri‑Axial & Bi‑Axial Fiberglass: Balanced torsional flex for freestyle play with responsive carving ability.
• Sintered Knife‑Cut Base: Fast, durable, and wax-absorbent for all‑season riding at top speeds.
• Magne‑Traction Serrated Edges: Seven strategically placed serrations for unmatched grip in icy or variable snow.

Perfect Match For

Intermediate to advanced riders who want one board that can dominate park jumps, carve corduroy, and rip pow lines. The Rider’s Choice is playful enough for freestyle, yet powerful and precise enough for freeride adventures.

The Details

• Shape: Asym Twin
• Profile: C2X Hybrid Camber
• Flex: Medium (~6–7/10)
• Core: G Lite 3 (FSC Aspen/Paulownia/Balsa)
• Glassing: Tri‑Axial & Bi‑Axial Fiberglass
• Base: Sintered Knife‑Cut
• Sidewalls: UHMW External Sidewalls

The Difference

Compared to directional all-mountain boards, the Rider’s Choice keeps things symmetrical for freestyle progression while adding asym tech for more intuitive turns. It’s looser and more playful than a full camber deck, but more stable and powerful than a pure rocker.

Bottom Line: The GNU Rider’s Choice is a true all-terrain twin that blends freestyle creativity with freeride capability, thanks to its hybrid camber profile and asymmetrical design.
