Tired of riding what seems to be a solid plank of wood? The Archetype is your solution. With the ultra light wood core shaving off about 18% of the finished board weight, and carbon glass instead of fiber glass removing another half pound, the Archetype is Endeavor’s latest innovative prototype. Designed to maximise floatation and create a new riding sensation. The Archetype features regular camber under the feet allowing for great pop, there is earlyrise out to the contact points at the nose creating a seamingly unmatched floatation device. The quirky slit tail reduces back leg fatigue and is torsionally incredibly soft. Quit sinking in the powder and start hovering… so long as you can afford the hefty price tag.
In 2011, Endeavor Snowboard built a prototyping facility in Vancouver called Archetype. This lab was created to build snowboard that would enhance the riding experience. The Archetype Series is Endeavor’s lightest and preferred board on a pow day.
