All Mountain vs Carve Specific - what's the difference?
|
The WCR Metal Series is the result of more than 18 months of research and development. It utilizes the most advanced materials available including Titanal (aluminum alloy), carbon and a specially formulated dampening system. The WCR Metal Series is 25% lighter than the traditional WCR yet provides a more stable, damp, grippy, forgiving and faster ride in all snow conditions. |
Riders: The WCR - Metal Series is perfect for advanced alpine riders who require the best equipment available.
Ride: "Smooth, stable, damp responsive - this is the best race board we have ever built...and a full blown corduroy ripper!" - Chris Prior
Conditions Ice, groomers, fall-line, gates, rutted race courses.
Design Shape: Smooth lines, narrow waist, medium profile tip, World Cup proven technology and shape. All WCR - Metal Series boards come with a rounded tail for less hang-up in variable riding conditions.
Turning Radius: Moderately long.
Flex: Titanium/carbon/rubber technology produces superior torsional rigidity together with a more forgiving longitudinal flex resulting in superior edge hold, stability and incredible dampness. Carbon also adds pop to give the board increased energy during edge to edge transition.
Strength: The WCR Metal Series is designed to maintain camber
and pop for several years of regular use. Unfortunately, damage caused
by metal baseplate bindings that do not have sufficient rubber gaskets
underneath them does not fall under the coverage offered by warranty.
Damage due to improper storage, repeated jamming of the tail, etc. may
facilitate delamination and is not a warranty issue but is a repairable
situation. For winter 2007 we have adopted a new epoxy system and added
shatterproof UHMW sidewalls resulting in our strongest boards ever.
