GNU Facts Snowboard 2026

The GNU Facts is a fun, all-terrain directional twin built for progression riders who want floaty freestyle play with Magne‑Traction stability. Featuring a hybrid Banana profile, poppy G Lite 1 core, and a catch‑free feel, it rips corduroy, jib lines, and side hits alike.

Why It Works

• Original Banana Hybrid Contour: Mild rocker between the feet with gentle camber toward the tips offers playful float and easy turn initiation with smooth edge control
• G Lite 1 Core (Poplar/Paulownia): Lightweight and poppy wood construction that delivers responsive stability
• Tri‑Ax / Bi‑Ax Fiberglass Laminate: Balanced flex with consistent feel for freestyle and groomer performance
• Sintered Knife‑Cut Co‑Ex Base: Durable fast base with strong wax retention and low maintenance
• Magne‑Traction Serrated Edges: Seven-point edge serrations that grip ice and hardpack with ease
• Directional Twin Shape: Symmetrical outline with slight setback for both switch capability and directional float

Perfect Match For

The Facts is built for riders progressing through freestyle terrain who also crave all-mountain fun. It’s ideal for intermediate-level riders wanting to boost jumps, slash groomers, and explore side hits with confidence

The Details

• Shape: Directional Twin
• Profile: Hybrid Banana (rocker between bindings, mellow camber at tips)
• Flex Rating: Medium (approx. 5/10)
• Core: G Lite 1 Core (FSC Poplar / Paulownia)
• Glassing: Tri‑Axial & Bi‑Axial Fiberglass
• Base: Sintered Knife‑Cut Co‑Ex
• Sidewalls: UHMW Sidewalls
• Edge Tech: Magne‑Traction Serrated Edges

The Difference

Compared to other playful twins, the Facts offers more edge grip and stability courtesy of Magne-Traction. It’s more forgiving than full camber freeride boards but livelier and easier to spin than flat-rocker cruisers.

Bottom Line: The GNU Facts is a well-balanced, fun-loving directional twin built to help riders progress across park, resort, and pow—without sacrificing control or comfort.

Grab the Facts and ride with playful power on every terrain.
