Shape
Tapered Directional
With a setback stance, longer nose, and narrower tail, this shape is built for freeride domination. Tapered Directional boards offer superior float, smoother turns, and added stability at speed, making them the go-to for big mountain missions.
Camber
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.
3D Crust Buster Nose
Bite through Crust with ease!
This subtly convex nose makes edge-to-edge transitions smoother and more predictable, especially in crusty or inconsistent snow. By keeping the contact points engaged, it maintains precise responsiveness where you need it most.
Wingered Swallowtail
Where physics meets surf aesthetics.
The wingered swallowtail reduces the surface area behind your back foot, helping the tail sink in powder so the nose rises naturally—giving you effortless float and a surf-like ride. The wingers, however, maintain effective edge behind your rear foot, so you still get solid grip and control when carving.

3D Crust Buster Nose
A convex nose profile which improves tracking and fluidity in three-dimensional snow. To retain responsiveness, the contact points are not lifted.
A smooth kick radius and fuller tip outline improves deep snow floatation without adding swing weight.
An advanced composite damping technology, developed in house at Amplid, which reduces unwanted vibrations for a smoother more controlled ride.
Running along the topsheet 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 you edge engaged with the snow for improved control. Get the Rolls Royce feeling!
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.
A narrow band of uni-directional carbon stringers that run through the centreline of a ski or snowboard from tip-to-tail increasing pop and extending flex memory without altering torsional stiffness.
Amplid’s Hollow Tech, inspired by learnings from the Hollow Project, uses resin-proof profiled honeycomb inserts to solve weight and performance challenges. This innovation reduces weight while maintaining strength and flexibility, delivering superlight boards and ultraquiet tips and tails.
In the top laminate we have added multidirectional glass pads in the binding area, to avoid dings caused by the pointy corners of binding bases. These pads enhance durability while only adding minimal weight.
Uber light wood varieties are cut, treated and aligned in a way only our factory knows. Its strength to weight ratio has scientists baffled.
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.
Boards come factory-tuned with two Scotch wax runs and a 90°/0° edge setup, leaving all options open for customizing your own edge angles.
Amplid’s Zero 90 Carbon layup addresses a critical blind spot: 90° flex. By integrating carbon rovings along this axis across the entire board, it enhances edge control and power transfer while reducing weight. The result? Precision, stability, and unmatched performance.
