Snow CarverTM works best on 6" or more of fresh powder versus hard pack snow. The Snow CarverTM floats on deep snow using a hand held controller so that the rider can twist and lean using weight shift while the leading competitors try to plow thru the snow using a handle bar. The board pictured above is not representative of the board to be shipped with your order.

Anatomy of a PowerBoard
There are only a few ways to power a snowboard. Once you power a snowboard, you automatically turn it into a directional powerboard. Other powerboard designs have limitations. A snowboard with the track attached directly to the back of the board without a suspension, losses ability to carve (roll), or turn (yaw). This design limits the board’s ability to maneuver causing the rider to fight physics. Simply put, this simple design makes the board "want" to go straight. Also, when the board begins to "plane out" in more than 6 or 7 inches of snow, the track will begin to spin freely because the small track used for this design doesn’t have adequate traction. This will result in losing forward motion. This is only good if you want to go straight in less than 6-7 inches of snow. Unlike other powerboards, the Snow CarverTM allows movement in three dimensions in relationship to the drive unit. This is a very important distinction when choosing a powerboard. The Snow CarverTM is the only patented powered snowboard that moves in three dimensions in relationship to the drive unit. The track in the rear is independent of the board. The Snow CarverTM allows the rider to have directional control and maintain traction at the same time: -side to side carving, -left to right turning, -and up and down traction for uneven terrain. Because of the unique patented design, the Snow Carver’sTM power unit maintains traction, power, and speed. The detachable power unit design of the Snow CarverTM is independent of the board. The Snow CarverTM is designed to propel the rider with speed combined with the thrill of carving and maneuvering turns in the open space. |
