Description

OVERVIEW

CNC machined completely from 7000 Series Space-Grade Aluminum, the Prime-X slashes 85 grams off the weight of the 2019 X with the new AirPod ankle strap, asymmetric heelcup, aluminum hardware and hollow pins. The lower inner sidewall allows for tweaks while the taller outer sidewall provides support for touring. The Prime-X sets a new standard for backcountry snowboarders. Travel lighter, travel faster, ride harder.
