The System MTN CRCX Snowboard, System’s top seller, has been enhanced with the innovative CRCX camber profile-a rocker-dominant "camber-rocker-camber" design that boosts powder float and lifts contact points to prevent edge catches.
Key Features and Construction
Let's delve into the specifics that make this snowboard stand out.
CRCX Camber Profile
An all new design, this is a rocker dominant "camber-rocker-camber" profile. Overall rocker creates tons of float in powder and prevents edge catches for a super smooth ride. The subtle cambered zones in the nose and tail activate on demand, delivering powerful pop for jumps and ollies.
3D Core
Lightweight and explosive pop and response are the name of the game when it comes to our new triple density 3D Core. Hand selected Poplar runs tip to tail with added stringers of higher density wood for strength and response.
We then place a powerful, artisan grade, heartwood stringer down the center of the board to create one of our most explosive cores. Whether it’s jumping through the park, or powering through turns, the 3D core offers unparalleled power and performance.

All of this is accomplished by avoiding the particle board, presswood, wafers, and other inferior products that you find in so many of the other boards on the market.
Outline: Directional Twin
With a similar nose and tail, the MTN charges hard and rides great in powder while offering tons of catch-free play and control when riding switch.
Laminates: Biaxial and Triaxial Fiberglass
Biax over Triax fiberglass laminates create a perfect blend of flexibility and pop to the board. A soft flex topsheet creates an easy and forgiving ride, making butters and park days a breeze. The stiffer triaxial fiberglass underneath then takes control when charging groomers or steeper or aggressive lines for a true all mountain design!
Edges: Fully Wrapped Rockwell 48
Rockwell 48 steel edges are the epitome of durability and strength. Designed to stay sharper longer and take a beating, no edge will hold up better. Cut through ice, slash powder and ride with confidence all day long.
Top Sheet: UV Protected Gloss
Durability is the name of the game when it comes to our entire line of boards. As such, all models feature a full UV protected topsheet. UV protection is an integral part of the construction process, yet is skipped as a cost saving measure on many boards.

Base: Extruded

Inserts: 2x4 12 Pack
Our full 12 pack of inserts creates maximum stance options in the industry standard 4-hole insert pattern. This allows for complete binding compatibility across all standard models and maximum placement options. No cheap 6-pack or 8-pack inserts with restricted stance choices here.
