Description

The Pioneer is designed for advanced riders who demand performance in across the mountain. With a directional shape, blunted nose, traditional tail and multi camber profile it performs in all conditions. Our lighter weight core is blended with half Phonon Pre-Tension Fibreglass and half Oak Wood Veneer topsheet, an innovation in snowboard construction that harnesses elastic energy through continuous lamination, supercharging the board’s ‘pop’. Construction is streamlined by combining carbon and fiberglass with resin, eliminating the need for the traditional plastic topsheet and UV Lacquer. The result is a super lightweight and powerfully reactive board built with less materials. Finished off with our Smoothride Sidewalls to cut down on chatter and you'll always be the first to clear the path for your crew.

Due to the unique manufacturing process of the wood veneer and Phonon Topsheet, subtle variations and imperfections in finish may occur which give these boards their unique character. The wood veneer on this board has been manufactured without a plastic topsheet protecting it as we felt feeling the wood and the riding characteristic was essential to keep. As such, the veneer can be maintained for longevity by applying a natural wood oil coating, we recommend Osmo Polyx®-Oil.

Graphic Inspiration

Born in Denmark, Niels Bendtsen has always been immersed in design and craftsmanship. After emigrating in 1951 to Canada, Bendtsen began an apprenticeship under his father, a cabinetmaker who worked under Jacob Kjaer. In 1963, he opened his own retail store where he sold his father's designs, as well as other pieces from Scandinavia.

Moving around the world while gaining different types of experience in the world of furniture, Bendtsen started his own manufacturing company, Bensen, combining Italian craftsmanship with contemporary designs. Along with his staff, Bendtsen designs and oversees production on every piece.

Niels was one of the founders of Never Snowboards (later changed name to Option Snowboards) who Endeavor founder Max Jenke was first sponsored by but also worked during the summers sanding top sheets and screen printing.

WOW!
I'm 57 and have been riding since 1989.
Being one of the first two snowboard instructors hired at Mount Snow, West Dover, Vermont I have ridden Burton exclusively my whole life. You get older and life gets in the way so I haven't been able to ride as much like I used to. I couldn't justify buying new equipment so my last purchase was 20 years ago. My kids are in their 20's and wanted dad to "put up or shut up" after hearing all my stories and looking at old pics so I decided it was time. I researched many manufacturers but always new Burton would be the one I'd go with. I came across Endeavor being "sister' to Burton and saw that the channel design was being used and came across a great deal on your site that I couldn't pass up. Not only did I get the Pioneer Bensen I also got an amazing deal on a jacket and pants!
Let me say that on my first run on cord I felt like I was 25 again! This board was very responsive and popped me from edge to edge effortlessly. I can't believe how technology has progressed so far since my last board.
As for the pants I didn't ever think I would find full side zips since my old yellow Burton padded knee pants! So warm and plenty of room. Sub zero day and only a pair of flannel pajama pants on underneath.
The only thing I would change about the jacket and pants is the pocket zipper should close in the up position with a small patch of velcro to keep the zipper from moving down.

All in all you have a new rider and with the family growing you will have at least 4 more soon.
Thanks!

Love this board so far!

A lot of thought went into this board when designing it. You can tell that the moment you point it down the mountain. I got it for when the snow is poop and need to have something playful. Actually took it on a pow day and was very surprised how well it did. Highly recommend this board or any endeavor product if its as good as this deck. Probably will be riding many endeavor boards in the future! Buy this board!!!

Replacement snowboard for the win!

Broke my new board on the first day riding due to a construction defect but Endeavor was amazing and replaced the board within a week and no time lost on the hill. My new board is amazing and is one of the best boards I have ever rode on. Switched it to the Endeavor Pioneer Legacy model and it is a total beast. If you are reading this review to help with your purchase decision, let me make this easy for you. Buy the board. Great products, great company. You will not be disappointed!
