Why the Sidecut is a Game-Changer
Heard about sidecut and think it’s just technical jargon? Let me break it down for you. This “”cut”” is the curve along the edge of your snowboard and trust me, it’s a detail you shouldn’t overlook. It’s the key to unlocking your full potential on the slopes.
Sidecut: A World of Possibilities
- Radial Sidecut: This classic shape features a uniform curve that provides a smooth, consistent ride from start to finish.
- Progressive Sidecut: Imagine having two distinct curves: one from the nose to the center and another from the center to the tail. The result? Faster and more dynamic transitions between edges.
- Degressive Sidecut: Here, the curve from the center to the tail is wider than the one at the front, allowing for quicker and smoother edge changes.
- Triple Sidecut: The SUV of snowboards. With three distinct curves, you get maximum control through every turn.
- Traditional – Magne Traction: Think of it as extra grip on icy slopes. This profile uses seven different radii to provide unmatched edge hold.
