DESCRIPTION: The COLLECTIVE Series was created for the die-hard big mountain and back country enthusiasts. These true directional boards feature an increased progressive side-cut and a set back stance that gives the rider superior control even in the tightest tree spots. This series is also cap constructed with Academy’s above average standard features. These boards also have increased effective edge for excellent stability in high-speed turns and a longer nose/radius profile for maximum surfacing in the heavy pow days. The full-length urethane dampeners help reduce chatter on the rutted hard pack and ice in turn providing the rider with better edge control and a smoother ride. The Collective 158 Wide is a freeride design for the big footer. This series’ running widths are wider, but do not sacrifice sidecut or turning technologies. This is a functional wide board that gives the rider more stability and better edge to edge energy transfer than most wide boards out there.
