Product description
Back to the roots
The Shaper Twin is the newest member of Never Summer’s Shaper Series, designed by Snowboard Shaper Tim Canaday. This series focuses on fun and brings us back to the roots of snowboarding.
Riding Style
If you’re into park riding, groomers and carving, the Shaper Twin is exactly the right board for you.
Shape
The Shaper Twin has 10mm of taper and a centred stance. This ensures best switch ride-ability and insane park performance.
Profile
The Fusion Rocker Camber: Edge gripping hold, the snap out of turns, and the huge pop of Ripsaw Rocker Camber in the back combined with the float and surfy feel of Original Rocker Camber in the front. Fusion is here to bring back the fun and fluidity that will make snowboarding dynamic again.
Flex
Presses, butters and some jibs: the medium-soft flex is super playful.
Construction
The NS SuperLight Wood Core features a custom blend of wood species to create the lightest weight yet durable core on the market. The NS Superlight Wood Core is CNC sanded to a fraction of a millimetre. A tailored flex is perfected. The lightweight RDS 2 Damping System uses three narrower laminated damping layers that provide the perfect combination of vibration, absorption, and stability. RDS 2 is the perfect balance of freeride stability and freestyle liveliness. Bi-Lite Fiberglass used underneath the core delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing durability. STS Pre-Tensioned Fiberglass, used on top of the core, is an advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate that has added elastomer stringers between the 0° and 90° glass fibres (the length of the effective edge). This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates giving the snowboard unmatched strength, edge hold and performance. The Carbon Max Laminate Technology combines an advanced top and bottom carbon matrix to maximize response and strength here it’s needed most. The result is a lightweight yet powerful configuration that provides torsional rigidity and energy transfer without sacrificing the control a rider needs. Sintered P-tex Sidewalls maintain their integrity at any temperature and the exclusive, super-fast, durable Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base has just the right amount of graphite making it Never Summer’s fastest base ever.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
