GNU Banked Country Snowboard 2026
The GNU Banked Country is a high-speed directional freeride powerhouse conceived by Temple and Cannon Cummins. Featuring a C3 camber profile with subtle rocker between the feet, progressive Magne-Traction edges, and a tapered directional shape, it’s built to slice groomers, slash chunder, and surf pow with unmatched edge control and rebound power.
Why It Works
- C3 Camber-Dominant Profile: Strong camber zones deliver explosive pop and precision, with a minor rocker midsection for easier turn initiation and maneuverability.
- Progressive Directional Magne‑Traction: Tapered edge serrations and flared tail geometry improve turn exits and rear control.
- Directional Shape with Setback & Taper: ~1.5″ setback stance and mild taper enhance float and carve precision in deep or variable terrain.
- Carbon Power Bands + G Lite 3 Core: High-energy Aspen/Paulownia blend reinforced with carbon for strong pop and stability.
- Tri‑/Bi‑Axial Fiberglass Laminate: Balanced flex and torsional strength for versatile all-mountain control.
- Sintered Knife‑Cut Base & UHMW Sidewalls: Durable, fast base and high-impact protection for aggressive riding.
Perfect Match For

The Difference
The Banked Country fuses the raw carve power of camber with surfy float and fluid responsiveness. It’s stiffer and sharper than most freeride boards and more aggressive than hybrid all-mountain models—perfect for fast laps, banked slalom style runs, or charging when conditions demand confidence.
Bottom Line: The GNU Banked Country is a directional freeride titan—built for precision, pop, and flow on any terrain.
