ABOUT TUNING
To maximize the board’s performance and enjoy a safe and satisfying ride, it is necessary to tune both the edges and base, and apply wax. We strongly recommend starting with our BASIC TUNE option to bring out the board’s fundamental performance.
If you are interested in our Structure Service, please refer to the page below.
The wood core, variable thickness, and top sheet material are all optimized for splitboard use, and have been designed to bring out the best characteristics of the solid board version.
The PHANTOM HERCULES HOOK adopted from 19-20 have a lightweight and simple structure, are highly reliable, and allow for easy mode switching in harsh conditions.
Aluminum protectors have been added to the nose and tail to minimize damage to the board during touring.
The Tip-Lock is also fixed with a through-screw, making it easy to replace in the unlikely event of failure or damage.
From the 22-23 season, a reinforcing fiberglass sheet has been added around the ride mode inserts to protect the wood core from binding impact.

FUNCTION
ACCEL CAMBER
The idea of traditional camber is to apply the same amount of pressure onto the entire edge of a board to attain smoother, more stable carving and turning.
The camber arches from the center of the board all the way to 3 cm inside of the widest point of a board, both the nose and the tail. To turn, this camber has to be stepped on and the bottom pressed against the surface. This type of camber is effective at a resort, compacted slope or on a flat face. But it has lots of demerit on deep powder, fresh snow, or terrains with three-dimensional features. It is arched against the direction of the board, and the board could get hooked on the snow easily, making the turn less agile.
The GENTEMSTICK’s radical Accel camber eliminates hooking and prevents nosedives in deep powder or fresh snow, while maintaining a natural floatation. It is designed and shaped to perform its best when the rider stands neutrally on top of a board. It is made flat from the widest point of the nose side to about the front foot. The arch begins there and reaches the highest around the back foot, and it ends at the widest point of the tail side. When a rider stands on the board, the arch gets pushed and the area ahead of the front foot barely touches the snow.
This is the position that maximizes the performance of the board, and also the same position that reaches maximum velocity in ski races and other speed competitions. Accel camber has an arch from point A to point B. The board becomes flat as the back foot pressures the board. It rises slightly from the point C to the nose, which effectively reduces snow resistance.
There are boards with similar camber designs released from major manufacturers these days. It is important to remember that the nose rocker design becomes very important with this kind of camber system, which has the peak of its arch placed further behind the center of a board. The GENTEMSTICK Accel camber boards are distinctly designed, especially from the point where the camber ends to the widest point of the nose. The key is to reduce resistance.

Customer Reviews
Great little board, was recommended to me from a helpful chap in the Hirafu shop (sorry forgot his name) I’m 180cm, 72kg been riding for 40 years and wanted a lively split board to add to my family of Jones boards. This little number rules them all… Quick in the trees, stable on the steeps, floats in the Pa-pow and fast. Perfect all-rounder for people who enjoy the backcountry. Recommended
Such a fun board! Incredibly playful and quick on the groomers, yet performs amazingly in the deepest of powder. This board is as close as I’ve come to shortboard surfing on snow. The nose has the right amount of width to stay above everything, which also gives it an advantage when skinning fresh tracks. It took me a while to find a stance that worked for me, a little longer than other boards. In the end, this became my go-to board for all my backcountry adventures.. and I missed it when I was riding inbounds.
専用のシールと一緒に購入しました。北海道の1月〜3月、約10山15山行での感想です。比較はずっと乗っているDIYスラッシャースプリット。先ず使用している前後のチップと左右連結のクリップの選択が良い！特にスライドするだけの連結クリップはシンプルで良く、精度もあります。深雪での浮力はスラッシャーに劣ることはありません。幅とノーズの大きさで浮力を出している印象です。全体的な乗り味は見かけ通りで取り回ししやすいです。ハイスピード域は若干スラッシャーの方が安定してますがこれは慣れかな？笑 春雪でも乗りましたが普通に乗れました。買って良かったです。
