GNU Banked Country Snowboard

The GNU Banked Country Snowboard is an advanced directional all-mountain board refined by Temple Cummins and Cannon Cummins for powerful resort riding, powder, and variable conditions. A large float-oriented nose, mild taper, switch-friendly tail, and directional C3 camber with a 1.5-inch setback balance deep-snow float with responsive carving and landing stability. Directional Progressive Magne-Traction® combines a radial entry sidecut with strategic edge serrations for smooth turn initiation and strong tail hold. The FSC®-certified G Lite 3 aspen and paulownia core, tri-axial/biaxial glass, and Carbon Power Bands create a light, powerful, and poppy ride, while the sintered knife-cut base and UHMW sidewalls emphasize speed and durability.

Directional C3 Camber & Setback
Directional C3 camber supplies responsive turning and pop, while the 1.5-inch / 3.8 cm setback supports powder float and a stable directional ride.
Float-Oriented Directional Shape
A large nose and mild taper help the board plane in deep snow, and the refined switch-friendly tail retains versatility for landings and switch riding.
Directional Progressive Magne-Traction®
A radial entry sidecut and strategically placed serrations create smooth turn entry and powerful fin-like edge hold through the tail.
G Lite 3 Wood Core
FSC®-certified aspen and paulownia form GNU’s light, strong, and poppy G Lite 3 core for high-performance all-mountain riding.
Carbon Power Bands
Carbon Power Bands work with tri-axial and biaxial fiberglass to increase response, strength, and pop without giving up the board’s all-terrain focus.
Sintered Speed & Durable Materials
The sintered knife-cut base is fast, tough, and wax absorbent. Eco-sublimated poly topsheet material and UHMW sidewalls and tip/tail materials complete the durable construction.
Temple & Cannon Cummins Design
The father-and-son design collaboration refines the Banked Country as a freestyle-minded resort and powder board with carving, float, and landing performance.

Sintered Base & Wax
Clean the base as needed and wax it regularly with a snowboard-appropriate wax matched to conditions. The sintered knife-cut base absorbs and holds wax; scrape and brush after waxing, and have deep gouges or base separation repaired by a qualified snowboard shop.
Progressive Magne-Traction® Edges
Dry the edges after riding and inspect for rust, burrs, cracks, or impact damage. Use an appropriate diamond stone for light maintenance while preserving the entry sidecut and strategically shaped serrations; avoid aggressive filing and leave major repairs to a technician.
Topsheet, Sidewalls & Core
Inspect the topsheet, UHMW sidewalls, tips, tails, and insert areas for delamination, cracks, or water intrusion. Promptly seal cosmetic damage and seek professional assessment for structural impacts near the core or Carbon Power Bands.
Bindings & Setback
Check mounting screws before riding and tighten them evenly without over-torquing. Use compatible hardware and treat the 1.5-inch setback and length-specific stance ranges as setup references rather than forcing an unsuitable stance.
Drying & Storage
Wipe the board dry after each session and let it air-dry at room temperature away from heaters and prolonged sunlight. Store it clean and dry without heavy loads on the camber; apply a storage wax for the off-season and remove it before riding.
