High-quality craftsmanship
The Lion is our ultimate freeride board, which the Radical team uses on every powder day.
It can be ridden much shorter than conventional boards without compromising on flotation in powder snow.
The long tip rocker and pronounced V-shape allow the Lion to float effortlessly even in meters of powder snow.
On hard surfaces, it holds the edge perfectly and remains stable thanks to its torsion reinforcement.
The tip rocker combined with traditional camber and tight rocker allow the best float, good guidance and playful maneuverability.
The cool, matt surface protection foil is an absolute eye-catcher. Your ultimate freeride board. Flex hardness: 6.5 Torsional hardness: 7.5 (scale 1-10) Technical data

Baseline
The shape of the board in side view.
Tail: The tail of the snowboard.
Tip: The nose or front of the board.
Camber: Referred to as positive camber, it describes the natural curvature of a snowboard or ski when not under load. Camber is a key factor when choosing the right ski or snowboard.
Rocker: Referred to as negative camber. We use tip and tail rocker, which shortens the effective edge length. This makes the snowboard/splitboard more agile and easier to maneuver, making it more forgiving of mistakes. The rocker also improves float in soft snow, while the existing camber in the middle ensures good control.
Materials
We place great importance on sustainability and ensure that every step—from material selection to packaging—respects both people and the environment. Our Radical models are handmade, with local wood cores and short transportation distances.
Thanks to the carbon-Kevlar sandwich construction, our boards offer outstanding riding performance and durability, backed by a five-year warranty on flex and camber.
The high-molecular graphite racing base ensures excellent glide and maneuverability. All models are handmade with great attention to detail. No effort is too great for us to produce the best snowboards and skis.
