Discover the Yes Pyl
Meet the Yes Pick Your Line, a tapered directional snowboard that adds a whole new dimension to your riding experience. This board stands out from other tapered snowboards thanks to the innovative Tapered Underbite technology. You will be amazed by the unparalleled grip that the PYL offers during hanging turns, giving you the confidence to push your limits.
Tapered Underbite is designed to give the board both float and edge grip. Viewed from the tip, the steel edge steps inward at the level of the inserts, creating a distinctly tapered shape. This improves the board's float, allowing you to effortlessly glide through powder snow. At the same time, the wave in the steel edge provides exceptional grip on groomed slopes.
What makes the PYL truly remarkable is the progressively shortening radius towards the tail. This gives you the ability to launch your turns powerfully and precisely, maintaining control over your ride no matter the conditions. Whether you prefer to surf the mountain or adopt a more aggressive style, the Yes Pick Your Line holds its ground and keeps you on your line.
With the Yes Pick Your Line, you can truly choose your own path. Whether you want to explore the deepest powder fields, make technical turns on steep slopes, or just enjoy a smooth and responsive ride, this board is ready for it. It offers a unique riding experience that you won't soon forget.
In short, the Yes Pick Your Line is the ideal companion for adventurous snowboarders seeking performance, grip, and versatility on the mountain. "Pick your line" and discover the excitement of the Yes Pick Your Line.

A real sintered base is harder and more expensive than extruded, and it can be faster for those who ride aggressively. But to be able to do that, it must be well waxed and prepared.
By using poplar wood with a lower density in areas that are not so structural and Paulownia in the areas where that is the case, they can remove precious weight from the beloved 420 and now the 20/20. This helps a board not only to float, but also to "feel" like it is floating. As a result, a board not only stays afloat but also "feels" buoyant.
In triax fiberglass, the fiberglass layers are arranged in three different directions: longitudinal, transverse, and diagonal. This oriented placement of the fiberglass layers ensures a balanced combination of torsional stiffness, longitudinal flexibility, and responsiveness in the snowboard.
Each side of the board is segmented into 3 different parts. The sidecut begins at the nose and has a radius of about 8 meters. At the front binding, the edge steps in 2 mm, the sidecut changes to about 7 meters and maintains that radius until the rear insert pack. Then the edge steps in again by 2 mm and the sidecut tightens to about 6 meters. Traditional "tapered boards" take the full sidecut and pull the tail inward, which moves away from the arc of your turn - that’s why they tend to wash out during hard carving.
The response of camber with the buoyancy of rocker. By combining camber and rocker, you can make the board both responsive and buoyant.
A directional shape provides improved performance and stability when riding in one direction, especially in freeriding and on powder snow.
