ALL MOUNTAIN

All-mountain models are the daily drivers of snowboards. And because they’re for riders who ride the whole mountain in every condition, they’re typically designed to be capable on and off the trail—on groomers, in powder, and helping you adapt in variable conditions. But they’re not experts in any one terrain and there isn’t just one type of all- mountain board. The key is determining what type of riding you do most and then choose your go-to model.

DIRECTIONAL

As the name indicates, directional boards are designed to be ridden in primarily one direction. The directional shapes are great for freeride and all-mountain models and often feature binding mounts that are set farther back (closer to the tail) with stiffer construction to make them more stable at speed.
