Quickrip Sidecut Technology

Quickrip sidecut technology simultaneously adds playfulness and power. QuickRip Sidecut consists of a mid-section sidecut that is off-set from a sidecut of the same radius in the nose and tail. This mid-section sidecut is joined to the nose and tail sidecut by transition zones that create two Mid-Board Contact Points that arc located just outside the binding mounting area. Depending on the board model, we vary how far the two sidecuts are off-set in order to modulate the impact of the QuickRip. One board rides short: QuickRip lets a board "ride short" at slow speeds by engaging the mid-section sidecut between the Mid-Board Contact Points. One board rides long: QuickRip lets a board "ride long" at high speeds by engaging the full running-length sidecut where the Mid-Board Contact Points work to improve edge hold. This is what we mean when we say, "One Board: Rides Short. Rides Long". We use this design predominantly with our Poprock rocker boards because the playfulness of the "short" ride kills it for riding slow and jibbing around, while the edge-grip of "long" ride complements the inherent looseness of rocker when you want to charge hard at speed. The ideal companion of our MtnPop Rocker Camber.
