Darrell Mathes's pro model features all sorts of tenacious tech to break down the walls of freestyle and get you running wild on all types of terrain. Carbon Stringers and Aramid Strips provide strength, snap and stability, while the stiffer flex offers enough control and response to take into the backcountry and hit the steep stuff without sacrificing the comfortable feel of a flat park board.
Frame Camber - Flat between the feet with gradual rise toward the nose and tail.
Poplar Light Wood Core - Poplar Light is a premium version of Public's tried and true Poplar core and uses 100% FCS certified wood. They’ve strategically placed super lightweight paulownia wood throughout the core to reduce weight but maintain a snappy feel. Strips of hardwood are placed underneath the bindings to reduce board breaks at the binding line and increase insert retention. The Poplar Light Core is only used on Public's highest-end boards.
Aramid Stringers - Aramid stringers are strategically placed in a V pattern in the tip and tail for increased durability, damping and a dose of added pop! Aramid fibers are used to make bulletproof vests so you know every board made with Aramid stringers will be more durable and hold its pop longer, season after season.
Carbon Stringers - Carbon increases pop and liveliness while enhancing the strength of the board.
Biax Glass - All Public Snowboards are made using Biax fiberglass. Biax fiberglass creates a consistent and smooth flexing snowboard tip to tail while allowing the board to stay nimble and predictable.
Sintered Base - A Sintered base absorbs wax better than Extruded, meaning you get more speed than with an Extruded base. They are however not as durable as Extruded.
Urethane Sidewalls - Urethane sidewalls are used in all Public boards for their superior dampening properties compared to the industry standard ABS and P-tex sidewalls. Urethane sidewalls are more durable against impact on rocks or rails to prevent your board from delaminating when you get caught slippin’ in the park or backcountry.
