A Directional Twin board with full cambeR for full control. This is the original board I shaped as my

pro model with the vision of creating a powerful, lightweight and reactive ride. Shape-wise I’ve taken a minimalistic yet fun approach with a re-curve on the nose and tail, which saves material and weight but also stands Up WitH oUt tipping oveR like rounded boards can do! By combining our vision with some serious testing we created the all new FoReveR Wood coRe. Clearly this board is treated very special using nothing but the best materials around in a unique but functional shape that will take you anywhere you want to go.

Johnnie worked hand in hand with Noah Butkus on his pro model artwork. Creating a graphic that

AvAilAble SizeS: /149 /152 /154 /156 /158

encompasses his very own story. He specifically selected our newly designed snap-cRackLe-pop woodcore for it’s strength and liveliness. We topped it off by adding our sWeet-spot carbons from the tips to the middle of the inserts to let him pop the highest ollie with ease. His deck also features Reactive FLeX allowing the board to ex edge to edge. If Johnnie jumps boardslide onto a rail,

the board automatically creates a skateboard-like concave that lifts the edges a bit to keep it from hooking up.

Our newly added Landing Strip fiber is placed from the tips to the inserts, reducing high velocity chatter while our new Forever Wood Core makes this board incredibly light.
