NEVER SUMMER PROTO TYPE 3 SNOWBOARD

The Never Summer Proto Type 3 Snowboard is the definitive “ride everywhere, slay everything” weapon in the Never Summer lineup. Developed over two years with U.S. Snowboard Team Rider Chase Blackwell, this asymmetrical true twin is engineered to deliver peak performance across all mountain conditions—from heavy terrain park laps to fresh powder bowls. Featuring an identical, perfectly balanced 6 out of 10 rating for both flex and dampness, the Proto Type 3 seamlessly bridges the gap between playful freestyle agility and locked-in all-mountain stability.

The core technology of this deck is centered around Never Summer’s Triple Camber Recurve profile combined with R.I.P. Edge-Hold Technology. This innovative geometry places three distinct camber zones under and between the bindings, creating deep, predictable edge bite on hardpack and ice while keeping the tips catch-free. Structural energy transmission is optimized via the Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix and T3 Twin Carbon Mapping Embossment, which channels explosive pop and torsional stiffness directly to the contact points without adding unyielding weight. For deep storm days, the addition of dedicated Blower Stance inserts allows for an extra setback stance, giving this premium twin-tip deck an unexpected, effortless float profile in deep powder.

Specs

Key Features:

True Twin Asymmetrical Geometry: Symmetrical nose and tail shapes provide seamless switch and regular tracking, while an asymmetrical sidecut balances edge-to-edge response.
Triple Camber Recurve Profile: Three independent positive camber zones maximize edge connection, supplying superior stability, pop, and turn initiation.
Precision Stitched Carbon Matrix: High-performance carbon fiber layer intricately stitched to ensure fine-tuned torsional control and instantaneous reflex.
T3 Twin Carbon Mapping Embossment: Symmetrically placed carbon matrix layers that evenly distribute load forces to maximize board pop and high-speed dampening.
R.I.P. Edge-Hold Technology: Advanced sidecut contact zones bite confidently into slick ice and hard resort snow without creating edge drag.
Blower Stance Inserts: Extra sets of high-utility binding inserts allow for a massive stance setback to optimize nose lift on deep powder days.
Durasurf XT Sintered Base: An ultra-fast, competition-grade running base engineered with premium porosity for superior wax retention and speed.
