The Gnu Banked Country snowboard is a high-performance all-mountain freeride board designed for big turns, deep snow, and technical terrain. It’s one of the most precise and powerful models in the lineup, with a character that favors fast runs over laid-back sessions. A bold character, designed for sessions that demand control and the ability to read the terrain.
What is the Gnu Banked Country snowboard designed for?
The Gnu Banked Country is built for carving on the piste, tackling the edges of the piste, and maintaining float when the snow gets deep. Its grip and stability allow you to maintain a clean line on firm snow as well as during fast runs. Its directional shape, with a nose longer than the tail, promotes forward control and float. Its classic camber provides precision, pop, and edge hold, but requires a committed riding style.
Who is the Gnu Banked Country snowboard designed for?
The Gnu Banked Country is designed for intermediate to expert snowboarders who want to tackle natural terrain with commitment and precision.
- Riders comfortable off-piste who want a reliable board in powder and ungroomed slopes
- Snowboarders who are working on their turns in varied snow conditions and want solid edge grip
- Riders who ride primarily in a forward-leaning stance and want a truly directional board
Best suited if you have the technical skills to handle a demanding board and are looking for terrain beyond groomed runs.
Avoid this if you’re a beginner or if your sessions mainly revolve around kickers and snowpark features.

What’s the difference between the Gnu Banked Country and the Gnu Antigravity?
