Never Summer

Onyx Mini Snowboard - Girls'

Most companies skimp on the design and construction of their kid-specific offerings in favor of cheap, inferior materials and cute graphics. Here to buck the industry trend, the Never Summer Girls' Onyx Mini Snowboard uses the same freestyle-focused shape, Original Rocker Camber, and Press Flex Core as the park-crushing Onyx, but in a smaller, easier-turning package that's optimized for lighter riders. Balmy, tropical-infused graphics are borrowed from the full-sized Onyx as well, keeping her stoked on riding this board for seasons to come.

Borrowing heavily from the full-sized Onyx, the Onyx Mini features a true twin shape and buttery-soft flex that's perfect for absolute beginners and up-and-coming freestyle riders alike. Blunted tips reduce swing weight in the park, also instilling a looser, skate-like feel. Original Rocker Camber places generous rocker underfoot, maintaining a catch-free ride that's great for beginners first learning to carve and freestyle riders jibbing through the park. And since there's still camber running outside the bindings, she'll reap the benefits of springing into turns, as well as popping off jumps and side hits.

Inside this pint-sized freestyle board, Never Summer's Press Flex Core keeps things soft-flexing for easy turn initiation and effortless jibbing. Its FDS Dampening System soaks up small bumps and vibration at speed without reducing the board's lively, poppy persona. Other ride-enhancing features include a Vario Power Grip sidecut for extra bite in hardpack, as well as a Durasurf sintered base for reliably fast glide all-season long.
