YES Handsign - 2011
Japanese snowboarding hero Tadashi Fuse moved to YES from Burton last year in one of the biggest team moves of the season. Tadashi is only a little guy, he’s got small feet and he likes camber; YES didn’t have a board with any of these features so for 2011 they had to design and build him one. All of the high spec materials you expect like a speedy 8800 grade sintered base and triaxial glass with carbon reinforcement meet a cambered profile and a narrow waist for smaller aggressive and powerful men or strong female snowboarders.
Manufacturer's Description:
Tadashi wanted a series of colourful boards that with an old school skateboard feel to best represent his style of riding. Rather than using words, Tadashi likes to express himself through his riding and the HAND SIGN boards help him communicate his style and love for snowboarding. The bold YES branding says “YES! I’m representing!” and you’re throwing shakkas, the thumbs up or the horns, you’ll be having fun with these boards on the mountain Tadashi style.
