There's no great secret to good times at the resort; there's no VIP area, no velvet rope to wait behind until your number comes up. That said, it does help to have a board that comfortably eats up terrain like the Gnu Asym Velvet C2 Snowboard. It's a capable all mountain twin with a twist, designed to complement the body's natural asymmetry with a softer core and shorter radius on the heel-side for better response and a velvety smooth feel that'll keep you hopping back on the lift for one more lap.

C2E Technology – Mild rocker between your feet with camber toward the tip and tais means full contact and control in all conditions so you can float, rip, and jib with precision and confidence.
