New Player Pushes On In Snowboard Market

WEDNESDAY, 5 APRIL 2006

Three months after it joined the snowboarding market, Surf-Rodz (SR) is pushing on with the development of new snowboards according to SR president Wayne Gallipoli.

“We're doing more research on all our products, and feel we'll have some interesting and unique boards to offer riders later this year,” Gallipoli said.

There are currently four products being slated for a 2007 winter release. First off is the Carve 170/180 model which boasts excellent control in carving and flexibility in a variety of terrains. Another is the Cruise 165 which the SR president said gives precision edge control in groomed and light powder conditions. Meanwhile, the Powder 185 snowboard has a hybrid shape which combines the features of a carving deck and a powder ski. Finally, the Elite will be their top-of-the-line board with a modified pintail parabolic-shaped side cut.

But while winter is almost over, SR will continue with their research and development of the snowboards as well as the promotion of their summer gear. “We're getting ready to hit the pavement and get back in the water,” Gallipoli said.
