<p><strong>100% TEAM DRIVEN!</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Believer is ready to take your tricks to the backcountry and just as willing to warm up in the park.</strong></p>
<p>Designed and inspired by Eero Niemela, Louie Fountain and Shaun Mckay, we have taken everything known about freestyle performance and tweaked it for their needs. The slightly longer tip and tail and Twin-tip Hyper Progressive sidecut combined with the Hybritaper Board Technology instills confidence that every spin will maintain stability and control while the WH3 Core takes lightweight strength and lively flex to new levels.</p>
<p><span id="more-161"></span></p>
<p align="center"><strong>Board Technology</strong></p>
<p><strong>4000 Sintered</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Fastest natural base material available</li>
<li>Durable</li>
<li>Absorbs wax faster</li>
<li>Retains wax longer</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Hyper Progressive</strong><br />
Similar to a formula one car suspension, our Hyper Progressive sidecut allows for ultra fine adjustment at any speed and in any condition. An infinite number of different radius are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the center. This sidecut mellows out the transitions leaving you with the most predictable, best all around riding board on the market.</p>
<p><strong>Hybritaper Tip</strong><br />
Hybritaper takes our current Hybritech Board Technology, and tapers out the core at the tip and tail to reduce the swing weight. We blend the tips from a cap into a thin sandwich removing the sidewall where you don’t need it.</p>
<p><strong>POP 1</strong><br />
Carbon has been extended to the very edge of the board for maximum power and pop combined with a fine tuned edge hold and torsional stability.</p>
<p><strong>Honeycomb Technology</strong><br />
We use urethane skinned honeykomb in our top of the line cores. Simply stronger, lighter, and damper than the wood it replaces. We keep the tip to tail, rail to rail wood performance by inserting Honeykomb only on the lower surface of the core. You get all the benefits of honeycomb without that tin can feel.</p>
<p><strong>WH4</strong><br />
The WH4 Core maximizes absolutely every element of our core. With a greater percentage of Honeykomb than the WH3 Core, it’s engineered to maintain durability at minimal weight.</p>
<p><strong>WH3</strong><br />
Our WH3 includes two strips of Honeykomb material between the bindings and the rails.</p>

<p><strong>100% TEAM DRIVEN</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Believer is ready to take your tricks to the backcountry and just as willing to warm up in the park.</strong></p>
<p>Designed and inspired by Bryan Fox, Eero Niemela, Louie Fountain and Shaun Mckay, we have taken everything we know and they know about freestyle performance and tweaked it for their needs. The slightly longer tip and tail and Twin-tip Hyper Progressive Sidecut combined with the NEW! Hybritaper Construction instills confidence that every spin will maintain stability and control while the NEW! Multi Light Coretakes lightweight strength and lively flex to new levels.</p>
<p><strong>Artist Profile</strong><br />
The Believer is a collaboration of efforts from Louie and Fox sitting at their computers for hours writing every word or phrase now embossed in the topsheet, to Eero and Shaun picking out their base colors and seeing them created in front of their eyes. Four individual graphics for Fox, Mckay, Louie and Eero that each of them put their personal touches on.</p>
<p><span id="more-90"></span></p>
<p align="center"><strong>Specifications</strong></p>
<p><strong>NEW! MULTI LIGHT CORE</strong><br />
Our Multi Light Core includes two strips of Honeykomb material between the bindings and the rails.</p>
<p><strong>NEW! HYBRITAPER TIP TECH</strong><br />
Hybritaper takes our current Hybrid Construction, and tapers out the core at the tip and tail to reduce the swing weight. We blend the tips from a cap into a thin sandwich removing the sidewall where you don’t need it.</p>
<p><strong>CARBON TORSION FORKS + CARBON STRIPS</strong><br />
Collective performance package that delivers super high speed stability and responsiveness, powerful pop and energetic maneuverability</p>
<p><strong>4000 SINTERED</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Fastest natural base material available</li>
<li>Durable</li>
<li>Absorbs wax faster</li>
<li>Retains wax longer</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>TRIAXIAL</strong><br />
Glass with a directional element stiffens the board torsionally. Best bet for improved edge hold.</p>
<p><strong>HYPER PROGRESSIVE</strong><br />
Similar to a formula one car suspension, our Hyper Progressive sidecut allows for ultra fine adjustment at any speed and in any condition. An infinite number of different radii are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the center, thus allowing you to have exactly the right sidecut at any moment throughout your turn. No more all or nothing sidecuts that seem to be mellow initiating a turn, then hooky once you really get into them. This sidecut mellows out the transitions leaving you with the most predictable, best all around riding board on the market today.</p>
