Prior ATV - 2011

It’s not just us Europeans that like a good carve. The Japanese are putting together some great videos and even though it’s still in the closet in the US, there’s a growing hard boot carving scene. For snowboarders who want a snowboard that carves like a race board but floats in the powder for days of fresh, Prior has been hard at work creating the ATV. The ATV is slightly wider than your average hard boot snowboard to accommodate soft booters. Perfect for anybody wanting to experience the thrill of a race board without the pain or stigma of hard boots.

Manufacturer's Description:

The ATV is a wider version of our Alpine 4WD model with a longer, more gradually inclined nose for improved float in powder and soft snow conditions. It rails the groomers with the stability and control you would expect from a Prior alpine board.

The ATV is a go-anywhere-do-anything directional alpine freeride snowboard. Its generous sidecut, shape and flex provide a stable, damp ride on all snowpacks.

Best For -

Groomers, fall line, powder, hardpack, ice, moguls, steeps, and crud.

Rider type -

New and learning hard-boot riders, advanced alpine riders looking for a high-performance powder board, and soft boot riders with angled stances searching for their ultimate carving tool.
