Matt Cummins has the longest running pro model in snowboard history. He has been designing boards with us for over 20 years. This year we cut him loose again on his latest dream board and he came up with an aggressive all terrain C1 freestyle, freeride board he calls the La Niña. The La Niña is a directional shape banana in the front, rocker between your feet and camber (C1) in the back design with Magne-Traction. Matt rides a lot of resort accessible steep pow terrain and the often brutal, to the point of comedy, terrain necessary to get in and out of the pow stashes… and then hits every jib or cat track hit on the way back to the lift. He loves the banana float in the front and suspension and power of camber (C1) in the rear. Fantasy terrain techno quiver killer. Ryan Davis did the art and worked with Matt on the personal photo collage.

C1 Banana Camber Combo Blend (C1BTX)
Matt Cummins’ directional Mt. Baker freeride set up: banana in front, camber in the rear. Rocker between your feet with flat-to-mild camber from the front foot to nose contact, blended with camber from the back foot to the rear contact area. Focuses pressure between your feet for easy turns, great edge hold on ice and a mild amount of pressure to the tip for unreal catch-free float and shifts our maximum amount of pressure to the tail for power, stability, pop and control in critical situations.
MAGNE-TRACTION FREESTYLE ADVANTAGE:
One of the best things about Magne-Traction is that the extra edge hold you get allows you to ride your board de-tuned for the park and rails and still get great edge hold all over the mountain. Take a file and round your edges so they don’t hang up on the rails, boxes, or ledges. Then go ride everywhere!
