FNTC AND

A limited concept board for mixing carved turns and tricks in the same run.
Introduced for 2025 as a limited model for "run-tori", the style of linking carved turns and tricks down a run. The name stands for carving and trick, with neither given up for the other. It was developed and tested by Kenichi Takizawa, known as Snowboard Sensei. It pairs a low double camber, with a camber under each foot and rocker in the centre and at the tips, with a 16 mm setback and a degressive sidecut, plus honeycomb in the nose and tail and the ultralight deck. The catalogue rates the flex medium to hard, softer in the centre (5, 4, 5 out of 5 for nose, centre and tail). It launched in 153 cm only; a 156 was added for 2026.
