DC Ply 159 2023 Snowboard

DC’s freestyle powerhouse for the whole mountain

Tested and developed with the help of the DC team riders. The skate-like feel of the popular Ply offers massive stability and plenty of pop to conquer the whole mountain. The Lock and Load Camber profile offers precise edge control, yet is slightly more forgiving than a traditional camber profile, ideal for creative moves in any terrain.

Riding style
An all-mountain/freestyle board for experienced riders – carving turns on the piste, surf turns in the powder or creative runs in the park. With this board, the good times never stop.

Shape
The Directional Twin Shape has the advantage that the nose is slightly longer than the tail, giving you more float in powder. However, the nose and tail are the same width, so even switch riding is no problem. The bindings are mounted centrally.

Profile
DC’s Lock & Load Camber profile comes with a traditional camber between the bindings and is flat behind the bindings towards the nose and tail. This skate-inspired profile gives you a stable ride, but is still more playful and forgiving than a classic camber profile.

Flex
The board’s medium to stiff flex guarantees the stability you need to master really big features in the park.

Construction
The Stratus Core is made of soft, flexible, FSC certified poplar wood with two beech stringers running along the centre of the board for added stability. The True Base is a ground base for high speeds with a robust and easy-to-repair construction. With a 3° bevel from the traditional 90° edge, beginners get a forgiving board and experts get a jib-ready board straight off the counter, as it’s no longer so easy to get caught with the edge, especially on boxes.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
