KORUA's Classic-line all-mountain board, the 'Swiss Army Knife of snowboards', for riders who want one board for groomers through powder.

With a slight swallowtail, the Pencil gives a playful release out the back without losing edge hold or torsional stability. The taper creates a responsive, nimble ride that feels shorter and quicker edge to edge. Its pointed nose carries speed out of deep-snow turns and helps the board float in deep snow.
The Pencil features KORUA's FLOAT CAMBER curves into a rocker shape in the nose. The profile helps you stay on top in deep powder while maintaining speed through the turn; the camber underfoot gives grip and stability on hardpack and in variable conditions, and the early rise in the nose makes turn initiation easy.
