Freestyle Snowboards
Freestyle snowboards are usually designed softer for boxing over rails or kicking in fun parks. They are also slightly shorter in length, which makes them suitable for beginners. For those who like to ride big kickers, freestyle boards with a higher degree of hardness offer more control, but require advanced riding skills. Mostly, freestyle boards are offered in a twin shape. Tip and tail are identical and the bindings are positioned exactly in the middle, so that backward and forward riding are equally well possible.
Medium
The flex of a snowboard describes how hard or soft the snowboard is. The right flex depends on your individual ability. Medium snowboards are suitable for advanced snowboarders as they offer more support and are suitable for all piste conditions. They are in the golden mean between forgiving and aggressive. This gives them a certain hardness that controls the edges when carving, but they are not too stiff for freestyle tricks and slopes. In short: they are perfect for all-mountain adventures.
Twin Tip
A twin shape is absolutely symmetrical. If you were to cut it in half, both parts would lie perfectly on top of each other. This makes twins the perfect boards for switch riding. Because no matter which direction you want to ride - twins perform equally well. The profile of the board is also the same. So if it is a camber, it is equally pronounced from the center to the front and back. As this shape allows so much freedom, it is particularly popular for freestyling.
