The Yes. The Y. Snowboard takes the powerful shape of the Optimistic, adds a little rocker to the tip and tail and tones down the innards for riders who don't check "madman" on the questionnaire. The result is a board that floats, carves, grips, and shreds just like one of the best in the business, but goes a little easier on both the rider and the wallet.
Rocker Type
CamRock – The response of camber with the floatability of rocker. Camber between your feet acts as a spring, keeping your contact points on the ground as you go in and out of turns and allowing you to keep that edge hold longer. Once compressed the camber will accentuate the rocker and lift the nose out more, allowing it to float.
Flex
Flex Rating – 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
UnderBite – UnderBite edges re-distribute a rider’s weight in such a way that it enhances turning ease and edge hold. Creating divots inward at the binding area reduces and disrupts the surface area of the edge that has contact with the snow while the board is turning. This segmentation of the sidecut into 3 key zones focuses your body weight onto areas that initiate, hold and release turns.
Core
Full Poplar – Yes.'s baseline core for tip-to-tail woodcore snowboard construction. A core that strikes a predictable balance between durability and consistent flex and lightweight feel.
Laminates
Biaxial Glass
Base
Sintered Spec – The raw material is pre-consumer recycled (meaning it never left the factory) sintered base material. The heating and extrusion process softens it slightly, but it's still much harder than true Extruded.

2 x 4 Inserts
