Construction and Materials

The Spectrum shares much of its construction with the fan-favourite Happy Place, but substitutes out the sintered base for a more rugged and jib-friendly extruded base. This knocks the price point down a little and, though you lose out on a little wax retention, your local workshop will thank you for the easier repair job when you snag it on a street rail or box.

Carbon stringers are placed directly underfoot to give that already poppy camber profile a little added firepower. The flex point sits at a mid-stiffness six out of ten – enough play for jibbing and buttering across the mountain but still retaining a decent level of response to inspire confidence on bigger features.

Roundup

With the tsunami or new shapes and profiles pouring into the market, it makes sense that the Spectrum was dropped from the line a few seasons back. But it makes even more sense that it has returned for winter 21/22. Dedicated park boards are a tricky thing to get right. Trends come and go, but style lasts forever, and the Spectrum epitomises this excellently. Right down to Sebastian Müller’s artwork on the topsheet.
