The Swiss Army knife in the Kindred lineup. This is the board you grab when you want to be prepared for whatever the mountains throw at you. A dual camber profile provides plenty of grip along the effective edge, while the rockered center provides a playful feel and float in deeper snow. An excellent candidate for a carbon layup, this thing will have you ripping on the groomers, and launching every side hit in sight.
Triaxial fiberglass keeps the ride smooth and predictable, while carefully placed carbon adds a quick, lively response.
A clean, vertically laminated wood core keeps the ride balanced, lively and naturally smooth.
Seamless urethane sidewalls protect the core, take the edge off chatter and help the edges feel settled.
Every natural wood veneer is a little different, giving each build its own look and a touch of extra damping.
Carbon is placed where it matters most to add a little more snap and quicker response.
A basalt layer around the binding area spreads load, cuts down vibration and adds strength where it is needed most.
A tough sintered base holds wax well and keeps the glide fast and consistent in changing snow.
Super Sap® bonds the whole layup together with dependable strength and a lower-impact, bio-based resin system.
Smooth, forgiving and easy to trust, with plenty of durability for everyday riding.
Lighter and quicker, with fast energy return and a lively feel. Basalt layers sandwich the carbon to add damping and strength.
The Nootka is the do-it-all shape in the lineup: grippy on firm snow, playful underfoot and happy when the snow softens up.
Camber at the contact zones adds grip, while the rockered centre keeps the board playful.
The edge feels calm on groomers and gives back plenty of energy between turns.
The rockered centre helps with float and makes the board easy to release and redirect.
Shorter sizes start mid-soft, with the flex getting firmer as the board gets longer.
Narrow (-6mm), Wide (+6mm), Extra Wide (+12mm), and custom widths available.

When I got the board first thing I noticed was the feel....most board you grab at a store feel produced. This felt crafted right out of the box. Now we went from snow to none back to snow. First time out was a groomer day, and wow is all I can say stay on your "toes" with this board because it wants to carve and eat. Loved the feel on the groomers, smashed runs all day leaving trenches. Finally got some powder to fall and was able to go play in the tree.....this is where it shined the brightest. From the drop in on the cat tracks, slicing through the powder, rebounding off the pack....this board performed and exceeded the expectations I had. Hopefully the shipping nightmare can be smoothed out (this was nothing on kindredsnowstore.com side at allllll. UPS and customs coming to montana) but it wont be my last board from these guys.
Absolutely love this board and this company! This is my second board with kindred, first board lasted me 12 years and still is a phenomenal board!
Customer service through these guys is exactly what you want from a company, I was able to send them a message and Evan called me directly to set up expedited shipping.
The board is extremely high-quality and I love everything about it! Really appreciate a product and a company like this!
