INSTINCT DCT i. KERS ALL-MOuNTAIN MEAN MACHINE
FEATURES
The Instinct DCT is hot out of the heads of our engineers and pro team; a gold star addition to Head’s table of sticks, incorporating the freshest tech. This includes Head’s take on combined camber, DCT, from which a rider can muster the response and precision of camber and the smoothness of flat camber; and Framewall - the world’s first 3D sidewall – which improves the torsional performance of a board as well as delivering supreme power distribution to the board’s edges. Add to this Kers chips, for the harvesting and redistribution of kinetic energy, power shovel tip and tail, 40mm Basalt stringers on top and base for smooth pop and a slim waist for improved torsional performance and you have a high-end slayer of the whole mountain.

INSTINCT DCT i. KERS N° 331003
The Frame Wall is the latest innovation resulting from the HEAD intelligence loop. Making the product better, HEAD’s engineers and pro riders were seeking for a solution to address the issue of unbalanced distribution of edge pressure.

SIDEWALL
EvEN POWEr DISTrIBuTION
MICrO-SuSPENSION
Comparing to traditional sidewall constructions, the unique FRAMEWALL evenly distributes applied edge pressure from tip to tail, while eliminating pressure peaks underneath the binding areas. Better power distribution along the edges results in more balanced turns and improved edge grip without needing to invest higher efforts into riding.
While sidewalls are covered and therefore stiffened by different kind of laminates top and bottom, our all new FRAMEWALL is wider and only partly overlapping with the top layers of the board construction. Hence, the FRAMEWALL’s exposed top edges can flex more freely to the upside with the effect that disturbing vibrations and micro-shocks get filtered and leveled out.

FORCE i. KERS Aggressive All-mountain Freestyle Slayer
Features
The Force i. KERS is a progressive all-mountain freestyle machine, endowed with regular camber and a high-end directional twin shape, on which the bindings are set back by 1cm. It is packed with performance enhancing features, like the 40mm Basalt stringers on top and base for smooth pop, KERS chips in the tip and tail for stability and a sintered base for sick speed off the blocks. For these reasons it is the board of choice of team rider Tom Klocker, and features artwork by his tattoo artist Sandor Pongor.

Add to this a lightweight FT1 baseplate and you have an easy-riding binding that’s light on purse and legs. FeatureS

PEAK FELLOW YOur ONLY FrIEND ON A POWDErDAY
DETAIL
With the newly-developed PEAK FELLOW, the HEAD development team has surpassed itself and developed a product that combines all the features you need for a perfect day’s skiing or snowboarding. The result is a freeride backpack that provides as much security and functionality as you could ever wish for. The PEAK FELLOW is the ideal accessory for backcountry use. In addition to storage space for avalanche emergency equipment, including a shovel, a probe and a first-aid kit, the packsack’s ABS® compatibility offers yet more safety on insecure terrain. The ABS® system is a TÜV-approved airbag system that can save you from being buried in an avalanche. Pull the handle and the ABS® twin bags are pyrotechnically and pneumatically activated, inflating to full size in a split second. The inflated ABS® twin bags provide additional dynamic lift in a flowing avalanche, and help skiers and snowboarders to stay on top of the avalanche. The separately available ABS® VARIO BASE UNIT can be zipped onto the HEAD PEAK FELLOW packsack in just a few steps. The removable back protector built into the PEAK FELLOW’s carrying compartment is CE EN 1621-2 certified and offers additional impact protection. On the outside of the backpack there are attachments for poles, an ice axe and a helmet. The main compartment provides enough space for anything you can’t do without for a long day on the slopes, and closes tight with the help of the water-repellent YKK zipper. Smart storage compartments for a hydration system, tools, a mobile phone and other small items complete the list of features. Despite its compact outer dimensions, the PEAK FELLOW offers a unique variety of attachments for carrying skis or snowboards. Skis can be attached either one on each side or diagonally. Boards can be mounted across the backpack during trips on the snowmobile, or vertically down the length of the body while climbing on foot. PEAK FELLOW N° 374563

TECHNIC FEATURES HEAD SNOWBOARDS 2013/14
BOARDS CAMBER DCT The DCT shape is a evolution of our classic CAMBA shape. The DCT shape has Camba under the bindings and a flat part between the bindings combined with a more narrow waist and a more aggressive sidecut in this area for sharpe turns and quicker initiation of rotation during the take off on big kickers. The pop loaded camber starts just inside of the binding area and goes all the way to the conact points in tip & tail.
CORE FRAMEWALL Our all new Framewall has a higher sidewall working as a torsion frame that adds extra stiffness and control to the board. The Framewall also helps your board to absorb smaller shockwaves: The profile of the FRAMEWALL creates a continious pressure over the whole edge.
WOOD The Select Core is made from handpicked full-length poplar stringers – lively and long-lasting.
POPLAR core The Select Core is made from handpicked full-length poplar stringers – lively and long-lasting.
BAMBOO STRINGERS Our lightweight poplar core combined with 2 bamboo stringers in the center also covering the insert area gives the board a very poppy feeling. Another benefit is the added strenght and a more stiffer feeling but without loosing the liveliness of the board.
SHORTtail CAMBA Camba is Head’s traditional camber profile. The board is convex from the tip and tail contact points to an apex in the center of the board, which delivers optimum power transfer for pop and intense manouverability and grip.
flocka Flocka delivers the best of both worlds, with the precision and predictability of camber and the playfulness of and “catch-free” ride of rocker. In short Flocka has a broken in feel but with the solid pop of a new stick.
rocka Rocka is Head’s easy-riding, “catch-free” concave camber profile, ideal for smooth presses and butters, lift in the pow and an effortless slide in the street or on the mountain.
These boards have a slightly shorter tail but it will give you the ability to crank those turns even better or perform better in the Pipe. Worried about riding switch? You will not notice it, it will feel like a twin!
TECHNOLOGY LAMINATES BASALT 30 STRINGERS Basalt fibers are stronger than regular fiberglass with the same weight. This means we can build lighter boards with better flex properties. Basalt fibers are not as rigid as Carbon fibers, this means the board breaks not that easy! Basalt 30 features 2 stringers on top & 2 on the bottom for our pop loaded and forgiving flex pattern.
KERS KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) is a system we’ve adapted straight from Formula 1 to harvest kinetic energy produced during edge-to-edge transferred to electric energy via piezoelectric fibres and stored in the KERS chip. This is then fed it back to you when you ollie or power a carve. The upshot is you’ll be fired out of turns and get insane pop off transitions.
INTELLIFIBERS Intellifibers are piezoelectric fibers that absorb energy from edge-to-edge turns and stiffen up to give more control and power to the board.
BASALT 40 STRINGERS
SHAPE TWIN DIRECTIONAL Our Directional Twin boards are not only precision allmountain riding tools, they are equally adept in the park and pipe.
biaxial CONTROL JACKET
TWIN
The Biaxial Control Jacket is a tight glass laminate weave within our snowboards that optimises control. The Control jacket, well, puts you in control.
Head’s Twins are built for the trickster whose domain extends from pipe and park kickers and rails to the metal and concrete of the street. Switch tricks and fakie landings have never been so easy.

Basalt fibers are stronger than regular fiberglass with the same weight. This means we can build lighter boards with better flex properties.

The result? Finally, you can unleash your board’s true potential.

AUTO OPEN TOE STRAPS Our patented solution to making entry and exit from a traditional two-strap binding as hassle-free as possible.

LINER TYPES AUTOFIT
THERMOFIT pro W
Entry-level liner for rookies learning the ropes, this pre-molded liner offers a super cozy fit.
We removed the lower lacing (not needed because of IPS and Hybrid lacing on the shell) to eliminate pressure points and allow easier entry. These are heat moldable, with a natural antimicrobial Bamboo charcoal lining and there’s a 3D molded insole with a solid heelcup to prevent heel movement and give proper arch support. Women also benefit from a lower heelside collar to accommdate women’s calves, soft ankle pads and a warm lining mesh.
THERMOFIT Metal loops and a Tetoron lace material make for easier sliding laces and an easier entry and exit. These liners are heat moldable, come with a 3D molded insole with a solid heelcup to avoid heel movement, and give proper arch support.
THERMOFIT PRO This liner dispenses with lower lacing (not needed because of IPS and Hybrid lacing on the shell) to eliminate pressure points and give even easier entry and exit without compromising on fit. It is custom heat moldable, the lining is made of natural antimicrobial Bamboo charcoal and there’s a 3D molded insole with a solid heelcup to prevent heel movement and give proper arch support.
LINER CUSTOMIZATION POWER TRANSMISSION POCKET Fine-tune the liner’s toebox volume by adding/removing EVA pads to the Power Transmission Pocket. It provides great support for the toes when doing heelside turns.
TOE WIDTH ADJUSTMENT A velcro strap around the toebox allows you to adjust its width to avoid slipping in the boot if you have a narrow foot. Pull out the liner, tighten the strap according to your needs and step into the boot again. You will feel the difference.
THERMOFIT HYBRID W Because a woman’s foot is different than a guys, the Thermofit Hybrid W Liner is designed specifically just for the girls but with all the same great features as the unisex brother.
INSOLES
ASYMMETRIC TOE BOX A foot is thinner on the lateral toe side than on the medial side. This is why our liners come with an asymmetric toe shape – for the perfect anatomic fit.

THERMOFIT HYBRID
THERMO INSOLE
Our most advanced liner. The lower section has a Velcro strap to customize the width and a Power Transmission Pocket holds your toes down securely on heelside turns. Bamboo charcoal lining is natural and antimicrobial and the breathable foam used helps wick moisture away from your foot. A Collar Velcro strap allows you to crank it tight for direct power transmission and the triple density insole has a strong heelcup, significant arch support and a shock pad in the heel. Heat moldable too.

FPG INSOLE
HYBRID LACING
The FPG (Foot Precise Guidance) insole features a cupped heel shape and curved arch under your instep, providing you with maximum support for your entire foot. No more cramping means a more fun riding!
Hybrid Lacing is a combination of a lace secured with the Easylock on the lower section and a Velcro collar strap on the liner’s cuff. Individually adjust the liner’s sectiona with precision according to your needs.
AUTOFIT W Our liner for women still learning to ride, the Autofit W is pre-molded and has a lower collar to fit a woman’s calf precisely.
thermofit W Like the men’s version, they come with easy sliding metal loops for a convenient entry and exit. These are custom heat moldable, and come with a 3D molded insole and have a lower heelside collar to accommodate women’s calves.
FPT INSOLE Our FPT (Foot Power Transmission) insole is put together using 3 different densities for maximum performance: 1) A stiffer material that surrounds your heel for that locked-in heel grip feel. 2) A shock absorbing pad under the heel where you need it most to soak up heavy landings and to keep your feet relaxed on hard packed days. 3) A softer forefoot construction giving additional comfort and keeping your hard working toes warm all day long.
LINER LACING breathable Our breathable liner foam allow air circulation in the liners, sweat can diffuse out of the liner for a dry and cozy feeling of your feet.
warming lining mesh Hollow fibers store the heat and provide it back to the foot when it is getting colder.

TEAM
HEAD SNOWBOARDS 2013/14
CHRISTOPHE SCHMIDT
AI KUNIOKA
Christophe is a leading player in the German snowboard scene, whose talents span both competition and film scenes. He is a veteran of the groundbreaking Isenseven crew but also threw down in the 2006 and 2010 Olympics, as well as a list of other contests too long to mention. He rides the Instinct DCT i. Kers , the NX Five DF bindings and the Team Boa Hybrid boots
Ai’s preferred terrain is powder and backcountry, which is pretty lucky considering she hails from Japan, home of the mythical steep and deeps. Her board of choice is the She´s Good Flocka, which she complements with NX Fay Five DF bindings and Jinx D-Boa Coiler boots.
NATIONALITY GER DATE OF BIRTH 1983-06-15
NATIONALITY JP DATE OF BIRTH 1978-05-12
FREDRIK EVENSEN Fredrik Evensen can be describe as all-round, as comfortable tearing up the streets as he is throwing roosters in the backcountry or stomping doubles off booters. His preferred setup includes the Evil i. Flocka, Team Boa Hybrids and NX Five DF bindings. NATIONALITY NO DATE OF BIRTH 1986-04-21
ALEX TANK
SHAYNE POSPISIL Shayne is a Jersey boy and earned his snowboard proficiency badge in Vermont’s school of hard knocks. He has since gone west and can be found riding the winters away in Mammoth filming with the People Crew on his Evil i. Flocka, Team Boa Hybrid and NX Five DF bindings.
NATIONALITY US DATE OF BIRTH 1985-05-15
TOM KLOCKER
Like Head teammates Klocker, Evensen and Schmidt, Alex Tank lays it down for the Isenseven crew and if you want proof of his technical abilities then look no further than Fool´s Gold and GIVIN TOO. Alex is responsible for the design of the Evil Flocka, which he complements with NX Five DF bindings and the Team Boa Hybrid boots.
If you’re a fan of Isenseven, then Tom Klocker will be no stranger. Hailing from Hippach, Austria he likes nothing more than banging hammers off booters in the park and backcountry but is also not adverse to a little street action. Together with his tattoo artist Sandor Pongor, Tom came up with the design of his chosen ride, the Force i. Kers. He also rides the NX Five DF bindings with the Team Boa Hybrid boot.
NATIONALITY GER DATE OF BIRTH 1988-06-02
NATIONALITY AUT DATE OF BIRTH 1990-12-05
ATTI HOLST Atti hails from Sweden’s snowboard incubator, Umeå, and is mad keen on slopestyle. She likes to hit up jibs and kickers on her self-designed She’s Good Flocka. Atti rides the Jinx D-Boa Coiler boots and NX Fay Five DF bindings. NATIONALITY SE DATE OF BIRTH 1987-02-19
