NEVER SUMMER Swift Snowboard 2025

Swift snowboards were the inspiration for the Shaper Series. 20mm of taper, a mid-firm flex and Fusion Rocker Camber allow for awesome everywhere performance, in or out of powder. Now, with new aesthetics on nose and tail and the same smooth, surfy, all mountain functionality you’ve grown to love, this is the powder board you’ll choose to ride in all conditions.

Flex: 7/10

Shape: Freeride Directional - Directional Shape is the classic snowboard shape, designed to be ridden with a slightly longer nose than tail to concentrate pop in the tail while providing plenty of float, flow, and control to rip any terrain or condition

Bend: Fusion Rocker Camber - Fusion is here to bring back the fun and fluidity that will make snowboarding dynamic again. Fusion Camber takes the best of our Original Rocker Camber Profile and transforms it into a power driven, yet surfy ride for all different conditions on the hill. With Fusion Camber, surf powder, slush, ice, and any other variable snow you may come in contact with on the mountain.

Core: NS Powsurf Wood Core - A high percentage of lightweight Paulownia is combined with Poplar and Birch running down the middle of the core and Poplar along the sidecut edge. Adding strength and the optimum amount of torsional rigidity. THE POWERSURF WOOD CORE strategically combines these woods in crucial areas of the core for a durable yet lightweight feel.

Fibreglass: STS Pretensioned and Bi-Lite Fiberglass - Our STS PRETENSIONED FIBERGLASS is an advanced pre-hardened, pre-tensioned, layered laminate that has added elastomer stringers between the 0 degree and 90 degree glass fibers (the length of the effective edge). This produces a stronger bond between the individual glass laminates giving our snowboards unmatched strength, edge hold and performance. Most bows use this type fiberglass due to it's unmatched ability to spring back and cast an arrow at a tremendous velocities without breaking. BI-LITE FIBERGLASS combines many of the strength characteristics of our STS fiberglass with an ultra light glass fiber matrix. This delivers incredible freestyle and freeride performance without sacrificing durability. The world's best snowboard fiberglass, period.

Base: Durasurf XT Sintered 5501 Base - Our suppliers have developed an exclusive, super fast, durable sintered base specifically for our boards. Just the right amount of graphite has been added making the DURASURF XT SINTERED 5501 BASE one of the fastest and certainly the most durable P-Tex bases on the market.

EXTRAS

Co-Extruded Polymer Topsheet - The PREMIUM TOPSHEETS are our very durable, lightweight, scratch and chip resistant fiber backed thermoplastic. These premium topsheets also provide extremely vibrant colors along with more grip than other topsheet materials, working as a built in stomp pad. Our Co-Extruded premium topsheet (Nylon and Polyester) include our Hex-Tech, Carbonium, Matte and TruGrit Topsheets.

Carbon Max Laminate Technology - More carbon equals more power and performance. The CARBON MAX LAMINATE TECHNOLOGY combines an advanced top and bottom carbon matrix to maximize response and strength where 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.

Extended Transition Area - A flat section of a snowboards profile, the TRANSITION AREA, that lies at the end of the camber zones just before the tip/tail rise. This area smooths out the transition between the camber area and the tip rise for fluid turn initiation and enhanced powder floatation.

Power Grip Sidecut - POWER GRIP SIDECUT utilizes multiple radiuses creating extra contact points to enhance edge hold. A flat section in the rocker area provides a broad contact point when flexed, however when unbent allows the board to track straight and not catch. Flanking this straight section are two shallow radiuses which provide the second and third contact points. Towards the ends of the sidecut are deep radiuses which render quick turn initiation and the final contact points.

Early Rise Nose - EARLY RISE NOSE is a longer tip section that comes off the snow closer to the front binding area. This front end rise and float design gives a board incredible lift in powder, slush and heavier snow conditions. This also provides very smooth turn initiation compared to a traditional steeper kick transition that tends to plow or push snow when engaging a turn.

RDS 1 Dampening System - The laminated damping layers of RDS 1 are the most extensive in the line. Utilizing a high amount of elastomeric rubber along the effective edge provides unmatched vibration damping and edge hold in variable snow conditions. This substantial damping system also supplies a snowboard with optimal high speed stability.

Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers - Elastomeric Underfoot Stabilizers are placed directly below the mounting area, providing optimum vibration and shock absorption and increase high-speed stability. These underfoot stabilizers also add cushioning while reducing foot fatigue.

Sintered UHMW Polyethylene Sidewall - We were the first snowboard company to use and perfect UHMW POLYETHYLENE SIDEWALL (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), and we've never seen one crack. Unlike conventional ABS sidewalls, that have a tendency to crack in colder temperatures, UHMW POLYETHYLENE SIDEWALL maintain their integrity at any temperature. UHMW Polyethylene sidewalls also enhance damping characteristics above the metal edge.

P-Tex Nose/Tail Protection - P-TEX TIP/TAIL PROTECTION places UHMW or Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene out to the ends of the board for incredible durability. This material protects these crucial ends of the boards from impact damage and will not crack or break. It not only absorbs impact but also a high amount of residual vibration, while sealing and protecting the wood core.
