WHERE IT THRIVES
- Overpowered conditions
The Atmos Carbon has been master-crafted by our skilled engineers, who have carefully positioned the full carbon laminate layup to provide balanced torsional stiffness and flex. The harmony created between outline, rocker and flex makes this the ultimate all-terrain board. Designed to ride overpowered with ease and control, yet still enabling early planing and low-end performance. Winner of the Highest Trick Score by Nick Jacobsen, and the Biggest Air by Marc Jacobs at the 2020 Red Bull King of the Air.

Tech specs
PREMIUM CARBON PERFORMANCE
The refined carbon laminate layup delivers a dynamic and responsive high-performance ride. Thoughtfully selected and arranged combination of woven roving and biaxial carbon fibre fabrics and unidirectional reinforcements provides an extremely fast response when loaded, with greater torsional and longitudinal board flex.
PRECISE RESPONSIVE EDGE CONTROL
Unrivalled edge control for powerful upwind tracking and Big Air boosts in even the most overpowered conditions. The harmonious equilibrium between rocker, outline and flex creates a board with quick response perfect for lining up that kicker, edging hard and boosting high.
IMPACT-ABSORBING SINGLE CONCAVE TO QUAD CHANNELS
The contoured bottom shape absorbs impact by breaking the water surface tension, and ensures stable and predictable landings.
100% CARBON CONSTRUCTION
Refined Carbon laminate layup for higher performance. Thoughtfully selected and arranged combination of woven roving and biaxial carbon fibre fabrics and unidirectional reinforcements provides an extremely fast response when loaded, with greater torsional and longitudinal board flex. The advantage of the Carbon over Hybrid Technology is a more controlled performance in overpowered conditions.
MEDIUM ROCKER
Allows for early planing and riding overpowered with ease.
MEDIUM-HIGH OUTLINE CURVE WITH NEW TIP SHAPE
Delivers easy carving through turns and always provides optimised grip.
DYNAMIC FLEX
The flex characteristic of every TwinTip Board is determined by multiple features built into each specific design. Core thickness variations and taper, as well as detailing, longitudinally and laterally, play the most significant role in controlling the overall flex and feel. Board specific laminate layups then allow us to further fine tune the flex and board characteristics. We adjust the stiffness lengthwise and torsionally in conjunction with the rocker line, plan shape view and profile of the board, to give each board its specific performance characteristics.
LIGHTWEIGHT, IMPACT RESISTANT PAULOWNIA WOOD CORE
Paulownia is a highly renewable hardwood species, with one of the highest strength to weight ratios. Ultra lightweight, with a high shear force and high impact resistance, Paulownia wood forms a non-toxic core which significantly displaces the amount of foam or resin used in manufacturing, thereby reducing carbon emissions. Each board has a customised core thickness individually fine-tuned to ensure its characteristics are consistent throughout the range, no matter your size or weight.
DURABLE ABS RAIL
For long-lasting, impact-resistant performance.
STAINLESS M6 STANDARDISED HARDWARE
Standardised SS316 M6x16mm hardware across all twin tip boards and accessories enables the use of the same PH3 screwdriver for assembly and makes replacement of parts super easy.
INTEGRATED GRAB RAIL
Integrated into deck shape to provide easy grip for board-offs.
ERGONOMIC HANDLE
Lightweight and ergonomic TPE material with ultimate grip when wet.
40MM FINS INCLUDED
Strong, abrasion resistant composite fins with dogbone washers and M6x16mm standardised screws.
RECOMMENDED WITH FLEX BLINDINGS
Soft cushioning with just the right amount of grip underfoot. Pure-comfort seamless KnitFlex inners and triple-density GripFlex footbeds are combined with customised size and stance adjustments for a locked-in feel and dependable support. Sold separately in sizes S/M or M/L.
PRECISE RESPONSIVE EDGE CONTROL
Unrivalled edge control for powerful upwind tracking and Big Air boosts in even the most overpowered conditions. The harmonious equilibrium between rocker, outline and flex creates a board with quick response perfect for lining up that kicker, edging hard and boosting high.
