ANY LEVEL.
ALL THE FUN.
YOUR ACCESS TO PROGRESS
A board that sets the bar for innovation and sustainability. Designed for the joy of freeriding and riders of all levels, the Era transforms your first rides into unforgettable experiences and unlocks advanced moves effortlessly.
With progression at its core, this board is your ticket to pushing boundaries with confidence and style.
Smooth rides guaranteed
Chop, flat, you name it. With a strikingly wide keel, this board achieves a pleasantly smooth ride. The curved channels give the board an extremely good glide and great upwind characteristics. With its parabolic outline, splashing water is effectively reduced and playful carving properties are achieved.
The heart of the Era lies in its Paulownia wood core, cocooned within innovative and sustainable basalt fabric. Crafted from natural volcanic rock, basalt is processed into continuous textile fibers. This unique material not only provides exceptional cushioning but also ensures remarkable take-off performance.
Paired with our Greenpoxy® resin, boasting a 35 percent plant-based composition, the Era marks a breakthrough in eco-friendly board design.
NATURALLY EFFICIENT AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE
The top-tier performance and maximum durability come directly from the fabric used in the Era. The fabric is extracted from basalt – a natural volcanic effusion. Like glass fibers, basalt can be processed at high temperatures into continuous textile fibers, which boast higher tensile strength, compressive strength, and stiffness. The result? Outstanding cushioning and explosive bounce potential. This means that you will experience a smoother and more comfortable ride. Furthermore, both energy consumption and CO2 emissions from production are significantly lower than that of glass and carbon fibers.
PAULOWNIA LIGHT
LIGHTWEIGHT WOOD CORE WITH HIGH STRENGTH
We meticulously select Paulownia rod slats with the lowest weight and expertly bond them together to create a dynamic and high-performance core. This careful selection process allows us to reduce the specific gravity of the core by an impressive 21 percent, resulting in up to 250 grams of weight reduction without compromising strength.
GREENPOXY® RESIN
GREENER PERFORMANCE
Both the Era and Fusion are coated with GreenPoxy 33, an epoxy resin composed of 35 percent plant-based molecules—a cutting-edge advancement in bio-based chemistry. Extensive testing across various CORE prototypes over several years has consistently demonstrated the resin’s superior quality and performance. This confirmed our decision to go this more expensive but more environmentally friendly route.
CORE UNION COMFORT 2 SET PADS & STRAPS
ONE SIZE FITS ALL
Basic yet essential for maximum stoke. The newly developed, ergonomic, shock absorbing, foot pad will give you the confidence to push your limits. The “Diamond Wedge EVA” memory foam, “toe grabber” footbed, and single Velcro strap will hold you firmly and comfortably in all conditions.
