THE HPS - SICKSTICK
The original freestyle powder board!
The Sickstick, was an instant classic upon its inception. Having evolved over time, this hybrid board maintains its freestyle DNA and premium, natural construction while also meeting modern freeride demands with a responsive flex and tapered twin shape. Turn 6-inch days into 12 and stomp those switch landings.
Details
Rocker Type: Rock Out Camber – Flat between your bindings for stability, camber near the feet for response and a rocker on the tip/tail for pressability.
Flex: 4 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)
Shape: Tapered Twin
Quadrilizer Sidecut – Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.
Core: Ghost Green Core – Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light wood.
FSC Certified Woodcore
Popster – The core is strategically milled inside of the insert packs, allowing the board to flex more naturally underfoot and transfer energy into the nose and tail for added pop.
Laminates: Bio-Based Resin 30% – High performance with low environmental impact, this bio-based resin is made with 30% of its molecular structure derived from plants.
BA MD Fiberglass – Medium density European Made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls: Recycled ABS Sidewalls – The molecular structure of ABS can be described as a concrete bar with rubber nuggets inside, combining toughness for energy transfer and dampening properties for impact absorption.
Base: 50% Recycled Sintered Base – 50% recycled base materials. Reducing waste without sacrificing glide!
Natural Wax
Fine Stone Finish
Edges: All Mountain EB – All mountain ready, right out of the wrapper. Equipped with 1.5 degree base edge bevel and a 1.5 degree side edge bevel for superior edge hold and no hang ups.
