The Whip, A Stealth Snowboard
Filed under: Sports
The sleek snowboard shown here is the Whip F-117, a design that manufacturer Cheetah Ultra Sports calls the Lamborghini of snowboards. The board's open V hull was created for speed and maneuverability (although not for fresh deep powder or heli-snowboarding). The board is made of wool, plastic, steel edges and carbon composite and the spider back suspensions are constructed with carbon composite. It is designed to fit better and let you cruise more easily and turn more quickly. The design is said to help both experienced riders and new riders great greater performance out of their boards. It is even lockable and can be hooked on a bike rack. The company is producing just a few boards for this winter and each sells for $1,899.[via Cool Hunting]
