The Endeavor Archetype Snowboard is a high-performance, all-mountain board designed for intermediate to advanced riders who crave versatility and unique design. 

Its standout feature is the large swallowtail, inspired by classic surfboard shapes, which provides exceptional float in powder and allows for smooth, agile turns. Despite its powder-friendly design, the Archetype performs well on hardpack and varied terrain, maintaining edge hold and stability even at high speeds. It's a great choice for riders looking for a distinctive board that can handle a variety of conditions and riding styles.

QSL Series

Do you confirm receipt of my transmission?

The inspiration behind the QSL series is derived directly from the QSL cards that are a visual representation of two-way radio communication.

The history of two-way radio dates back to the
late 19th century, however, it gained significant prominence during World War I, when it was used for military purposes. After the war, it found applications in public safety, transportation, and amateur radio.

The term “QSL” originates from the radio Q code used for confirmation or acknowledgment. In the early days of amateur radio, operators would send postcards
or cards to confirm successful radio contacts. These cards evolved over time and became personalized, often featuring unique designs, illustrations of radio equipment, call signs, and artistic elements.

It is from these cards that the QSL Series takes its graphic inspiration. Each board acts as its own unique QSL, featuring graphic hits inspired by original cards, a series of coordinates and a hidden call sign; all the information needed to send a return QSL.

Absolutely the best board .This was for my wife as I purchased a 160W a few years ago. We took them to Japan, and as advertised, they slay in powder and are the best overall board to lay down speed runs on a variety of conditions as they hold like a GS board .

Holy $#@& crap

This is hands down one of the most fun snowboards I've ridden in my 32 years of snowboarding. Fast responsive and supportive. It's there when you need it like AAA. Seriously if your thinking about buying one just click the damn button. You will not be disappointed. I swear.

*A board like no other from a great company*

Been riding for 30+ years and have never experienced a board like this. The float and pop are off-the charts. The shape is perfect for high-speed long low angle turns AND unrivaled performance in tight/steep trees - in which I was previously too intimidated to hit with other brands/shapes.

Also, the customer service and support is everything you'd expect from this highly reputable brand.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - buy this board

A solid board for any quiver

I've got a 2022/23 version of this board it's been all around a nice surprise. I picked it up as a 'resort powder' board, something I could have fun with on the groomers, and also work well as I venture into the trees to find little stashes around the mountain a day or two after a storm. It's been described by Endeavour as "The ultimate powder board", which it's not. What it is is a very competent powder board that gets you the bonus of 'pop' in jumps and turns due to it's relatively long tail, but general float suffers somewhat. The tradeoff is worth it for most days, but I've had at least once this season already when I wished I was on my 'deep powder' board. To be fair though, that was after two successive storms and the powder was over a meter deep in places.

So it's only got above average performance in ~deep~ powder, but the sweet spot seems to be in >20cm stashes where you can float, but really push to the bottom when needed with the full-length tail. It really shines in between these stashes on the groomers. Where most 'powder' leaning boards flat out suck to carve groomers on, this thing RIPS. It's fast, the tail is forgiving, and the taper gives it an old-school feel (the good kind). If my day is going to be exploring the mountain for powder stashes and carving packed powder in between, I can't think of a better board to do this on (and after 36 years riding, I've ridden a few).

I don't know if this would be a daily driver, but if you're looking to add to your quiver, it'd be a fantastic second board complimenting something more park oriented. Overall I'm very happy with this board, and stoked I got one before they introduced the 'acetate' graphics (seriously, WTF?).

Strongly recommended.
