Made with sustainability in mind

From park laps to powder lines, the MAAX moves across the whole mountain with precision and control. Its dual-radius sidecut links quick turns with stability at speed. Directional hybrid camber balances edge control and float, while a spoon-shaped nose glides through deeper snow.

Dura-LT Carbon and Carbon X45 fiberglass add smooth response, power, and snap with less weight. A lightweight poplar and balsa core keeps the ride lively, while a sintered base carries speed across varied terrain.

Poplar + Balsa

We combined carbon-infused fiberglass layers with full-length running strips of Poplar and Balsa wood, expertly blending stiffness and playfulness for a more responsive and fun ride.

Our sintered bases absorb more wax and offer greater durability, helping maintain speed across varied snow conditions.

Dura-LT Carbon

Dura-LT Carbon combines a dense 45° fiberglass weave with carbon inserts for a smoother ride with less weight underfoot.

Fiberglass Bottom

Carbon X45

Carbon X45 pairs tri-axial fiberglass with 45° carbon inserts to add power and snap while reducing weight.

Resin

Plant Based

Our plant-based bio-resin helps bond the board’s layers while reducing reliance on petroleum-derived materials.

Thermoplastic ABS

Our recyclable thermoplastic ABS sidewalls resist impacts and dampen vibration for a smoother ride.

Printing

Water-Based Inks

Our water-based inks reduce harmful pollutants in the printing process while bringing the board’s graphics to life.

    Amazing board

    I’m hopeful of a great winter for 26-27. This winter was not a great one. I’m looking forward to seeing exactly what this board can do in powder and trees.

    Incredible board!!

    I got the 160 because I wanted the surf feel while going through powder and man this board is amazing!! It literally feels like I’m floating over the snow. Riding on deep untouched powder felt like I was hovering on a cloud. Super smooth ride, and super responsive on tight turns which really surprised me! Made the whole experience feel like I was a pro surfer carving back and forth through the terrain. Not to mention this board is fast…. like REALLY fast. Even at some of the faster speeds straight-lining down the mountain, the board was super stable and didn’t feel like it was going to give out under me. It’s also really light and just an absolutely beautiful look. Overall, exceeded my expectations and definitely worth the price. I plan on using my old board for icy terrain (Mad River mountain, OH) but use the MAAX for softer snow. I got lots of compliments on it and can’t wait for next season already!

    Great playful yet stable board

    The MAAX is an awesome soft to mid flex board that holds a great edge when carving and is still playful and poppy! with variable conditions this season ('25/'26 season in Vail) it still performed amazingly! Couldn't be happier with this board. For reference, I'm 5'9'' and 155lbs and the 156cm MAAX was the ticket
