Gnu Headspace Snowboard

The Headspace is primarily a freestyle board designed for park laps, street riding, and creative jibbing. While its twin shape and C3 camber make it capable of handling the rest of the mountain, it shines brightest when you are hitting rails, jumps, and side hits.

The C3 profile features aggressive camber underfoot with a mild rocker between the bindings. This gives you the pop, stability, and edge hold of a traditional camber board, but with a slightly more forgiving feel that makes pressing on rails and buttering easier.

Magne-Traction edges provide serrated contact points that significantly improve grip on ice and hardpack. While they might feel slightly different than a smooth edge when you first initiate a turn, most riders quickly adapt and appreciate the extra confidence and control they provide in firm conditions.

Like any sintered base, it is porous and designed to absorb wax efficiently, which keeps you moving fast. To maintain its performance and durability, you should plan on waxing it regularly, especially if you are riding in warmer or abrasive snow conditions.

Yes, the Headspace is a great choice for an intermediate rider who wants to focus on freestyle progression. It offers enough stability for jumps and high-speed riding, but the twin shape and flex pattern are approachable enough that you won't feel like you're fighting the board while learning new tricks.
