YES Hel YES. Womens Snowboard 2022

Always Best in Class.

After winning four consecutive Good Wood Awards, the Hel YES. has anchored itself as one of the industry’s top standards for women’s free-riding. A directional twin layout, UnderBite outline, sintered base and a bamboo stringer core has allowed Helen Schettini to carry her unique mark on women’s snowboarding.

Rocker Type

Directional CamRock – The response of camber with the floatability of rocker. Camber between your feet acts as a spring, keeping your contact points on the ground as you go in and out of turns and allowing you to keep that edge hold longer. Once compressed the camber will accentuate the rocker and lift the nose out more, allowing it to float.

Flex

Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Shape

UnderBite – UnderBite edges re-distribute a rider’s weight in such a way that it enhances turning ease and edge hold. Creating divots inward at the binding area reduces and disrupts the surface area of the edge that has contact with the snow while the board is turning. This segmentation of the sidecut into 3 key zones focuses your body weight onto areas that initiate, hold and release turns.

Core

Poplar / Paulownia / Bamboo – Creates a lighter, more responsive core than the Full Poplar. The Poplar + Bamboo uses the same durable core, lightens it up by replacing 30% of the Poplar with Paulownia and then inserts two bamboo stringers down the full length for added pop and response.

Laminates

Biaxial Glass

Base

Sintered True – True Sintered bases are harder and more expensive than extruded, and can be faster for those that ride aggressively.

Binding Compatibility

2 x 4 Inserts

Additional Slamback Inserts

Base colours are not guaranteed (Base Colours May Vary)
