The Alpha is the speed addicts choice. The short nose and tail lengths combined with a long effective edge to board length ratio allows fast lengthy carves at ludicrous speeds. A full traditional camber profile ensures stability and grip on the toughest of snow whilst the worlds hardest sintered base ensures unmatched speed in all conditions. New for 2021 is our Diamond Weave Carbon that is woven into the triax fibreglass layer for rapid edge to edge response and power transfer.

Our Diamond Weave Carbon layer is integrated into the triax fibreglass layer to produce construction that is lightweight, stiff and aggressive. With rapid edge to edge response and lively tip to tail pop our Diamond Weave Carbon turns the Alpha into a board that rides like the supercars that inspired it.
The Alpha remains one of the most physically striking boards in our collection with its sharp lines that scream aggression, and a refined, dynamic shape inspired by nature and icons of automotive power. These V12 machines match exclusive materials with outstanding performance to draw their user into a different world. Our new Diamond Weave carbon can be seen through the clear topsheet cutout that mimics the clear hood windows of these exclusive automobiles.
Strong, faster, easier and designed to help dial-in the perfect stance for you. The Channel® gives you the ultimate control of your stance and your board in a design compatible with all major bindings.
Infused urethane sidewalls which reduce vibration and impact, similar to how urethane skateboard wheels create a smooth ride on rough concrete. Dampening the ride, reduces board chatter and leg fatigue and provides the ride with the smoothest ride ever.
