Afterblack Snowboard - 2027

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying

"I ride the Afterblack as my main park board and it just works. The twin shape makes switch feel totally natural, and it pops off lips the way you want a park board to. What surprised me was how well it held up outside the park too — I took it on some groomer laps and a powder day and it didn't embarrass itself. But make no mistake, this thing is happiest when there's a feature in front of it."

Who It's For

Intermediate to Advanced Park and Freestyle Riders:

Riders who spend most of their time in the park or pipe but want a board that won't let them down when they venture out onto the mountain. The Afterblack suits anyone working on their freestyle progression — from nailing park basics to pushing tricks in the pipe — while still being capable enough for groomer laps between sessions. The medium flex (5/10) keeps it accessible without feeling soft or washy underfoot.

What It's For

Park and Pipe Riding with All-Mountain Backup:

The Afterblack is built around park and pipe performance first. The true twin shape and centered stance make switch riding second nature, and the board has the pop and response you need to hit features with confidence. It scores well in the park and pipe, and holds its own on groomers and occasional powder days — but the park is where it belongs.

Why We Like It

Park-Ready Construction with Room to Roam:

The Afterblack earns its park credentials through smart build choices. The Carbon DarkWeb™ laminate delivers the torsional snap you want when launching off lips, and the Sintered 4000 Stone Ground Base stays fast lap after lap. The Twin Combination Camber Profile gives it the edge hold and ollie pop of a cambered board with just enough rocker in the tip and tail to keep things forgiving. It's a park board that doesn't punish you for leaving the park.
