First you take the Rossignol Angus’ shape and AmpTek camber profile. Next you remove some of the posh materials like the Kevlar and Carbon reinforcement and the 7500 Sintered base. What’s left is the Rossignol Taipan AmpTek, a great beginner and intermediates snowboard with a flex that’s dialed to aid progression and a price tag that won’t have you breaking into a cold sweat.
The Taipan AmpTek takes all-terrain freestyle antics to the masses with accessible and award-winning versatility. AmpTek All-Mountain rocker keeps the board playfully loose with rockered tip and tail, while camber between the inserts provides the pop and strong edge grip. The Taipan is a directional twin designed with a broad array of riders and styles in mind, so bury the needle or nose-press a new feature…progression is gonna be an afterthought.
