Stork

A deeper swallowtail for deeper turns

The Stork is built for flow over force. The combination of a longer length, a softer flex, and a tapered outline, creates drawn-out and connected turns, where each movement carries throughout the entire shape. The smooth flowing character feels just as natural in deep snow, as it does carving on hardpack. We suggest sizing up at least 10 cm, as this shape is best ridden much longer than your traditional length.

Personality

The Stork is a calm and composed ride, built for those who prefer to work with the mountain rather than against it. The longer length, paired with a softer torsional flex encourages a smooth surf-inspired rhythm, that responds best to subtle inputs. Imagine the Stork as the mid-length in your quiver, where it feels most at home making drawn-out flowing turns through a variety of terrain.

The Details

The Stork features our FLOAT CAMBER, which curves into a rocker shape in the nose for easy turn initiation and reliable float in deep snow. The elongated shape and deep swallowtail provide excellent float and a smooth, controlled ride in soft conditions, while moderate torsional flex through the center keeps the board easy to guide and responsive underfoot.

How does the Stork compare to the Dart?

On paper the two look closely related, sharing a swallowtail outline and our Float Camber, but the real difference comes down to how each one is meant to be ridden. The Dart is the quicker and more versatile of the two, happy changing direction through the trees and driving hard out of every turn on groomers. The Stork asks for a slower rhythm. With its extra length in the nose and tail, added taper, deeper swallow and slightly softer flex, it’s more about “flow over force.” If the Dart is the board you reach for most days, the Stork is the longboard beside it, for the days when you’d rather slow down and draw longer lines across the mountain.

This chart shows the range in what each size can handle. It is never our intention to categorize riders and their preferences. Our philosophy of snowboarding is to try new shapes, lengths, widths, and to keep an open mind for alternative riding experiences; however, we do have some limits to consider so that your board will work as it was designed to.

Your weight plays a major role in how the board will flex, and your shoe size will affect toe and heel drag when turning. The below size chart is for reference only, as our recommendations may vary depending on your stance and riding ability.
