Freestyle or Freeride?We build the finest boards for every riding style. Our 2007

all-mountain lineup finds the balance between the stiffness

freeriders need for effortless, stable turns at all speeds and the

snappy smoothness freestylers require for their playful style.

Blurring the distinction from peak to pipe, our new collection

offers the perfect model for every rider.

We Win.Andy Finch has been pushing our product to the limit for

five years, and his confidence in the brand is second-to-none.

Our women’s team is showing the world that today’s female

athletes are more versatile than ever by winning major titles

in slopestyle, halfpipe, and boardercross. Marco Huser and

Erin Simmons stood on Winter X podiums with top finishes

in boardercross and ultracross.

Just Built Better.Every board in the Palmer line is driven with this philosophy.

It’s why our boards outlast and outperform the competition.

Sick Wood.The world’s finest vertically laminated woodcores are at the

heart of Palmer construction. They offer incredible strength-to-

weight ratio for superior power, durability and unmatched

lightness. Their consistent flex and feel across the entire board

delivers stability at all speeds, rail-friendly smoothness for

jibbing and sturdiness for solid landings. These premium cores

are often enhanced with lightweight materials like Nomex™

Honeycomb, Titanium, and Carbon for enhanced ride

characteristics.

Wet-lam is for Slackers.All Palmer boards are prepreg. It isn’t the cheapest;

it’s just the best.

Shape Rules.Since the shape of our boards, in part, dictates the style of

riding, we’ve developed the most innovative and technically

advanced array of shapes in the industry.

The freshest sidecut in years. Klothoid allows Palmer

engineers to control the G-forces riders experience in the

turn. This unique multi-radii shape technology allows us to

blend together as many different sidecut radii as needed to

achieve easier, more forgiving and effortless board handling

that delivers the highest riding performance ever.

Choice.Tri-radial are shallower sidecuts for longer more controlled

and stable turns. Klothoid are more progressive for playful

riding with snappy, quicker turns. All in all, Palmer sidecuts

maximize agility, control, responsiveness, and turn

acceleration.

We don’t create technology for technology’s sake; our

commitment to high performance is all about the ride.

for the best on hill experience.

Let’s do some damage.

Vaporizes the Competition.

DESCRIPTION: The Honeycomb 3 is the lightest high-performance snowboard on the planet

reduces weight and ensures max performance. Nomex™Honeycomb is filled with 99% air and

is not affected by moisture like aluminum cores. The Klothoid shape creates a super light,

playful and responsive ride. The Peep-Show topsheet reveals tip-to-tail carbon fiber strips that

add energy and rebound, plus a 7200 graphite base adds speed.

Power Steering for your Snowboard

Ever wonder how Andy Finch gets such serious ups in the pipe? Yes, he has crazy skills but he also rides the Palmer

Power Link System. The PLS is all about leverage. The PLS enables Andy to transfer more body-power to his edges

for better grip, improved control, and quicker board response.

The PLS also eliminates the dead spot that a binding creates on the board allowing the board to flex the way it

should. The PLS makes heel-side turns feel like toe-side turns and toe-side turns feel better with less effort. Less

effort means riders stay on the mountain longer.

Simply put, the PLS is power steering for snowboards. You should sell a plate with every board that leaves your store.

Energize your ride. The PLS come in 4 models for different riding styles and is not gender specific.

PLS Super

The PLS Super has 20mm of lift

and more power to the edge.

Riders like Andy Finch are using

these in the halfpipe because

when they’re coming down on

those 900’s and they don’t land

just right, their toes could catch

the wall.

PLS Flex

The PLS Flex is the best-selling

plate in the line. With 10mm of lift,

this softer freestyle model goes

with any board on your wall.

PLS Standard

The PLS Standard has 10mm of

lift and is more freeride-oriented.

Andy Finch

PLS Shock

Our highest end plate, the PLS

Shock is the mack-daddy of the

plates. With 13mm of lift, this dual

durometer plate has harder

plastic on the outside pushing

power to the edge and softer

plastic on the inside that

cushions the foot and

dampens vibration.

4400 ISOSPEED

Screen printed or ultrasonically cut inlaid bases with stone ground finish for high speed, easy

repairs, and maximum wax absorption. Fast, tough and fixable.

7200 HIGH SPEED BASES

The inlaid 7200 graphite bases have computer-controlled stone ground finishes and are

super fast.

CAP-SIDEWALL

Cap-sidewall sandwich construction is the most expensive to produce but combines the

advantages of both sidewall and cap construction to distribute maximum power to the edges!

ID-2000 sidewalls overlap the steel edges completely and guarantee maximum durability,

precise edge grip and vibration dampening.

CARBON

Carbon fiber strips give a board additional liveliness, more pop, strength and edge grip.

We place carbon fiber in special configurations to modify the boards longitudinal flex,

torsional stiffness, and improve power distribution from the bindings to the edges of

the board.

FULL SIDEWALL

Easy to fix.

DUAL SIDECUT

Deep sidecut from the widest point in the tip and tail to inserts and a shallow sidecut

between the feet.

HONEYCOMB

Nomex™Honeycomb core made of impregnated aramid fiber is ten times lighter than wood

and has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Because Nomex™ is not affected by moisture,

corrosion does not occur like it does with cores made of aluminum or paper. Our Honeycomb

is filled with 99% air.

HRC-48 EDGES

Steel edges for a powerful and long lasting edge grip.

KLOTHOID SIDECUT

Klothoid technology allows Palmer engineers to control the centrifugal forces riders

experience as they turn. This unique multi-radii shape technology allows us to blend

together as many different sidecut radii as needed to achieve an even easier, more

forgiving and effortless board that delivers the highest riding performance ever.

PREPREG/NCF (NON-CRIMP-FABRIC) PREPREG

Prepreg adds the perfect amount of glue exactly where it is needed and not a drop more.

It ensures durability, long life, and consistency in flex and ride. Where other manufacturers

use wet lamination to save money, Palmer maintains its commitment to quality by using

prepreg in all boards. Prepreg allows us to deliver a finer product, helps maintain a safer

workplace for our employees and minimizes our impact on the environment.

WOODCORES

Vertically laminated beech/poplar or Okume woodcores for high strength, low weight, and

optimal flexural properties. Tailored to each board’s exact specs. Every model has its own

special woodcore – different in wood type, shape, and composition.

3D WOODCORE

Three dimensional shapes milled into the board’s woodcore saves on weight and puts

strength where it is needed - directing more power to the edges.

POWER LINK SYSTEM (PLS)

PLS increases leverage over the edges and makes riding easier – a recommended

upgrade for any board.

TITANIUM

Titanium offers the unique racing features of high power, dynamic rebound, incredible

stability, and excellent dampening.

TRI-RADIAL SIDECUT

Three radii are blended together for smooth turn initiation, stable ride on edge, and quick,

powerful exit snap into the next turn.

UHMW PLASTIC BUMPERS

Lightweight tip and tail protectors for high impact ding resistance and lowest swing weight.
