NEVER SUMMER SWIFT SNOWBOARD

The Never Summer Swift Snowboard is a highly regarded freeride and powder board that has become a staple in Never Summer’s “Shaper Series.” Designed for riders in Millcreek, Utah, who crave effortless float in deep powder but still demand strong performance on groomers and through diverse terrain, the Swift offers a unique, surf-inspired ride with impressive versatility.

Key Features for Dominating Utah’s Varied Terrain:

The Swift’s standout feature is its Fusion Rocker Camber Profile (sometimes referred to as Original Rocker Camber on older models, but Fusion is the more recent designation). This hybrid profile combines:

A generous rocker section between the feet: This provides incredible float in powder, making it feel like a “speedboat” on deep days, allowing for easy maneuverability in tight trees and effortless surfing.
Camber sections underfoot and a more aggressively bowed camber in the tail: This ensures excellent edge hold and powerful turn initiation on harder snow, allowing the board to carve surprisingly well for its powder-focused design.
Early Rise Nose: Contributes significantly to the board’s exceptional flotation by lifting the nose out of deep snow.

The Swift features a Directional Shape with a significant taper (typically 20mm) and a setback stance (around 3.25 inches). This design pushes the volume towards the nose, allowing the tail to sink slightly and the nose to stay high, further enhancing powder performance. The swallowtail (or crescent moon tail) on some models also contributes to the board’s surfy feel and quick maneuverability in powder.

With a medium-stiff flex (rated around 7 out of 10), the Swift offers a blend of stability for charging at speed and playfulness for slashing and navigating varied terrain. Its high dampness rating (often 8 out of 10) means it does an exceptional job of absorbing vibrations and muting chatter, providing a smooth ride, especially at higher speeds or in choppy conditions.

For riders in the Millcreek area who live for powder days but still want a board that can carve and handle the resort effectively, the Never Summer Swift is an outstanding choice.
