Flow technical rep Don Bergeson explains the Flow Elation 2011-2012 board at Alpine Accessories.
Flow's Elation is a snowboard built for any woman looking to shred any terrain. The Flow Elation has a slightly directional shape, which allows for all-mountain domination. If you add up all the great features in this board you've got yourself a world-class women’s-specific board that can take your game to new levels.
The 2011-2012 Flow Women's Elation Snowboard features...
RIDER TYPE- Intermediate to advanced ALL Mountain riders
Rocker- The Pop-Cam is a three-phase camber to make the most fun cambered snowboard on the market. Under the feet is a traditional camber that is flat between the bindings for added grip on ice, better float in the pow and to lock onto rails, while the tips are mellow for a more forgiving ride. Pop where you need it!
CORE- TruFlex core technology features a high strength-to-weight wood construction utilizing different density poplar woods uniquely profiled to give you excellent all-around response when riding the mountain.
CONSTRUCTION- Flow's Whiskey Royale technology utilizes Biax Fiberglass beneath the heel and toe areas of the binding, eliminating chatter and making for a smoother ride. By directing the glass toward the edge, we increase the edge hold while allowing for quicker, easier turn initiation and delivering a responsive ride and increasing the life of the board. A smooth, easy, torsional feel, the majority of the fibers are in the 0 axis to add extra pop and an easy torsional flex to the board. Easy carving for all-mountain or park performance.
BASE- Speed, wax absorption and durability are the main ingredients of the Sintered 4000. This is done through focusing on quality over speed-robbing additives. For an even faster base, the Graphite Sintered 4000 only has speed on its mind.
SHAPE- The directional board shape has a little more nose than tail, a setback insert pattern and flex for more performance and better float in powder. The Directional boards in Flow's line thrive in any terrain. From the park to the pipe to the pow, the directional twin takes shape to do it all.
SIZING- Like all manufactures, Flow sizes their boards to your weight, not your height. If you are between sizes, go shorter if you are cautious, go longer if you are agressive.
145 cm- 85-140 lbs.
149 cm- 90-140 lbs.
153 cm- 105-150 lbs.
Our comments- Many of our women customers purchase the Flow Elation as their second board. But if you've been renting for a few years, you should consider the Flow Elation snowboard.
