Amplid Big Kahuna
Say goodbye to boot drag with the Big Kahuna, a board crafted for bigger-footed riders who want performance without limitations. With a substantial 27.6cm waist width, this board has all the surface area needed for effortless float in powder, while a smooth sidecut and tapered outline make for nimble, precise carving on hardpack. HEXO2 honeycomb in the nose keeps the weight manageable, allowing for easy maneuverability. The Big Kahuna is more than just a wide board for larger boots - it’s a fine-tuned machine for gliding through powder and cutting deep carves, delivering big performance for big riders.

Bend
Cruise Camber : A half-fat camber for all-mountain dominance. Cruise Camber’s toned-down dimensions deliver a precise and lively feel, much like Pop Camber, but with much improved deep snow performance and a more “broken-in” feel out of the shrink-wrap. In Amplid’s directional snowboards a touch of early rise is added to Cruise Camber to improve buoyancy even further.

Core
LITE CORE: Uber light wood varieties are cut, treated and aligned in a way only our factory knows. Its strength to weight ratio has scientists baffled.
THICK CUT: Thick Cut Cores have a thicker profile in the tip and tail for several reasons: This flex profile suits a larger variety of rider‘s bio specs, it reduces vibrations and increases stiffness where you need it. The reduced nose and tail deflection improves deep snow float, adds control and increases stability.

Fiberglass
BIAXIAL GLASS: Using Biaxial Glass in the construction of our shreds gives them a flawless blend of response and playfulness whilst keeping them ridiculously lightweight.
IMPACT PADS: Lasercut plates made of precured hardglass are milled out of the core and laid in below the main laminate. Prevents ugly binding dings.
CARBON POP BAND : Une bande étroite de longerons en carbone unidirectionnels qui traversent la ligne centrale d'un snowboard de la pointe au tail, augmentant le pop et prolongeant la mémoire de flexion sans altérer la rigidité en torsion.

Base
SINTERED BASE: Amplid’s ultra-high density sintered base goes like shit-off-a-shovel in all snow conditions. It is extremely hard and therefore more resistant to damage.

Edges
Shred ready Boards come factory-tuned with a 90°/0° edge setup, leaving all options open for customizing your own edge angles.
Bezièr Curves We replace standard radii with Beziér curves in our sidecut and nose design, allowing us to precisely calculate the core’s flex curve for the most harmonious ride imaginable.

Additional Details
HEXO2 Lite : Spin to win with effortless style. Amplid’s HEXO2 core replaces specific areas of weightier wood at the tips with featherlight honeycomb, practically eliminating swing weight.
Floatation Tips : Ultra wide, low rising tips that exist purely to create lift in powder without sucking-up speed. They add a surfy feel to skis and snowboards.
