The freestyle board that team riders choose as the main board is "ARCHITECT".We support the performance of players who are active in the freestyle category and promise to be active in the competition.This is the standard freestyle model for head Snowboards.

A hybrid camber pop structure is adopted for the shape, and it is good at slide tricks using the repulsive force of ollies and the nose and tail.By setting a wide area of ​​the nose and tail, slide tricks and press tricks are stabilized, and if the whole is set thick, it requires power to handle, but the waist between both feet is set 2 mm thinner.The effect is to improve operability, and when you step on the edge from your feet, the thin part from the thin part bites the snow surface, and it demonstrates outstanding carving performance.Being able to use torsion means high operability.It's an essential element of freestyle.

A directional twin structure is adopted, the insert hole is placed at a position set back by 1 cm, and the board shape is finished in a real twin.It incorporates freestyle elements that allow switch riding and tricks.

The flex has a little more elasticity than the middle flex, and has both stability and repulsive force.The secret is the characteristics of poplar wood core.Lightweight, durable and repulsive, it enhances snowboard performance.

The sole is made of high-speed sole material of sintered sole.It is a material that can run comfortably even in the snow of Japan, which has high humidity and running performance at the competition.By doing the waxing firmly, you can enjoy more gliding.However, please note that if waxing is neglected, the gliding property will be particularly reduced.

The biggest feature of ARCHITECT is the basalt stringer with a V shape in the nose and tail.Supports freestyle spins, carving acceleration, and diagonal spins required for jibbing ya ground tricks.In addition, it leads to stickiness when landing or losing balance, and enhances recovery ability.
