As one of the best-known models in the Amplid collection, the Paradigma has gained itself a well-earned reputation as one of the best all-terrain boards on the market. Aimed unashamedly at experienced riders looking for a board that can deliver outstanding performance across the whole mountain, this stunning snowboard is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to get the ultimate out of whatever or wherever they ride. Built around a versatile state of the art directional twin shape that features Amplid’s advanced blunt profile all-terrain tips, the Paradigma delivers the perfect combination of freeride feel but with a more balanced freestyle inspired ride. So, no matter if you’re lapping the park, laying out turns on groomers or even hunting out fresh lines, this stunning snowboard is always going to be at the top of its game. In terms of stiffness, the Paradigma is a 7 out of ten, which means you get a dynamic and responsive board, but also a board that’s still pretty rider-friendly for those days when you don’t want to bomb around.Directional Twin, 10mm of extra nose, stance centred to sidecut, 20mm Pow setback Stance option.All-Terrain Tips. Blunt Profile, fuller widthThe smooth kick radius and fuller tip outline improve deep snow floatation without adding swing weight.Directional Cruise Camber. Mellow Camber Early Rise in the noseThis is the perfect camber-line for no-compromise, all-mountain inspired powder shredding. Subtle rocker in the tips generate lots of lift at low speeds and an out-of-this-world, weightless feel at speed. Underfoot camber transmits power at its bestSidecut 156 7.45m 159 7.7m 163 8.05mOmni Core with Pre Cured Impact PadsThis superlight wood core is the industry standard for lightweight, durable and versatile performance. Amplid has tweaked this core multiple times over the years, so there’s nothing left to improve. To add additional strength to the core and help reduce core compression at the binding edges, Amplid inserts tough, pre-cured composite impact plates placed beneath the bindings. These significantly reduce the risk of top sheet dings and breakages.Viscodamp Dampening TechnologyFull-depth channels are strategically CNC-ed into the nose and tail of the snowboard core. A low-shore-hardness Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), a softer version of the material used in skateboard wheels, is poured into the channels and cured. Vibrations create shear forces between the upper and the lower laminate. The TPU material is bonded to the top and bottom fibreglass laminates and absorbs energy during initial shear deformation. During the elastic return to its original shape, the TPU sucks up vibrational energy and delays successive vibration oscillations.Bi-ax glass 0°/90°Using Biaxial Glass in the construction of our shreds gives them a flawless blend of response and playfulness whilst keeping them ridiculously lightweight.Basalt Suspension stripsRunning under the top sheet in a V-configuration from the contact points towards the bindings, these narrow bands of Basalt fabric dampen unwanted vibrations, reducing rider fatigue and keeping your edge engaged with the snow for improved control. Get the Rolls Royce feeling!Sintered 7 BaseAmplid’s ultra-high density sintered base goes like sh**-off-a-shovel in all snow conditions. It is extremely hard and therefore more resistant to damage.
