Palmer Snowboards Snowboarding Gear 2008 - 2009 Overview
Dynamic Power Distribution [FLF] by Kessler. Another first from Palmer.
For more than 10 years, Palmer has led the industry in the evolution of snowboard design. The company created such firsts as Titanium inlays, Honeycomb Core constructions, Klothoid sidecuts, 3D woodcores, the Power Link System, Cap Sidewall and Prepreg constructions. For 2007/2008, Palmer, in another collaboration with Hansjürg Kessler, takes snowboard design one step further and brings an unprecedented shape innovation to the market that makes riding faster and more powerful, and yet safer, more predictable and less tiring.
From Boards to Skis.
This revolutionary shape design has been incorporated not only into our snowboards, but also into our new ski line.
Platinum LE
Guaranteed to Impress
Description: With 100% carbon construction, The Platinum is the benchmark of Palmer technology – innovation,
effortless performance, and style. Our engineers have developed a unique flex with the benefits of carbon: rocket-fueled
rebounds, powerful acceleration and dampening that create the ultimate in lightweight performance. The
revolutionary FLF shape design, Palmer full woodcore and stone ground 7200 graphite base creates a very fast
and powerful, yet smooth and easy-handling ride.
Rider: For any rider who can afford it. The first board in the world that provides full-blown power riding without
compromising effortless handling, very friendly behavior and wicked easy control.
Crown LE
Locomotive Breath
Description: Titanium-powered and carbon-fiber energized accelerations in our exclusive FLF shape will hold an
edge on anything and it’s unreal in powder. Titanium and carbon work in combination like a bow – the more energy
in, the more energy out. The legendary Palmer woodcore with Nomex™ Honeycomb in tip and tail delivers the lowest
swing weight with exceptional response in the cap-sidewall construction. New lacquered top plus 3D metal logo give
it that high-end sports car look.
Rider: Incredibly fun for an experienced freerider - very fast and powerful, yet smooth and easy-handling ride.
Liberty
Let Freedom Ring!
Description: The Liberty’s high-end mix of lightweight technologies plus Klothoid shape delivers the most playful ride in
our women’s line. Original winner of Future Snowboarding’s MVP award, the Liberty comes in a smooth lacquer finish with
limited edition art by Nat and Mickey Woolley. Super light, smooth-flexing poplar woodcore plus Nomex™ Honeycomb in tip
and tail guarantees quick board response and easy handling in all conditions. New 5 X 2 inserts and centered stance.
Rider: Effortless. The perfect match for any rider, anywhere on the mountain with a relaxed, controlled ride in all conditions.
Truth
Dressed to Impress
Description: The high-end prepregs and high-performance cap-sidewall construction in a women’s configuration make the
new Palmer Truth the best value on the rack. The full-length poplar woodcore with softer flex pattern and fast 4400 base allow
riders to go wherever they want. The Truth comes with a smooth lacquer finish and limited edition art by Chase.

Burn
Freestyle Powerhouse

Klothoid shape with limited edition artwork by Nat and Mickey Woolley. Combining rock solid, beech/poplar woodcore
with lightweight Nomex™ Honeycomb in tip and tail. The Burn is soft enough for technical freestyle riding, but
torsionally stiff enough for high-speed turns.
Rider: “Freestyle powerhouse for riders who stomp their tricks in the park then beat their buddies in a race
to the lodge.” SierraSnowboard.com.
Jade Twin
Butter, Slide, and Stomp Baby
