The Best Snowboard for: Powder + Freestyle - Powder, Trees & Pillows
The Hatchet is a powder & all-mountain hybrid with a freestyle twist - designed for dreams of endless pillow lines and the terrain in-between. To achieve its dominance in freestyle powder, we shrink the overall length, stretch the waist to over 270mm in the 152cm and pair it with our Twin Powder camber-dominant profile. With these modifications, the Hatchet is designed to be ridden significantly shorter. For the profile on the Hatchet, the nose is slightly longer and wider than the tail, but the stance is centered on the camber profile. This combination makes landing switch comfortable, railing carves stable and float effortless. A lightweight core of poplar and paulownia stringers keeps this board light and nimble and S-Weave carbon stringers woven through the core supercharge pop. The castor bean based, Rugged Nylon topsheet, helps shed snow and adds durability while the Sintered 4001 base provides top of the line speed in a minimalist black design to create seamless repairs. All of this helps the Hatchet pop pillows all day long and stomp powder landings with ease.
