DESCRIPTION
When Pigs Fly
YES wanted to pay tribute to all the boards that had been derived from the iconic 420 by doing their own version of a 420 spinoff.
YES took the short-wide concept and applied it to a traditional MidBite twin profile. But to keep the Taper that makes the float-ability of the 420 they needed to tweak the MidBite. Into the all-new Bi-polar Mid- Bite outline. This new Midbite has a deeper inlay on the front of the board than it has on the back. This creates a taper as the edge goes out 2mm less than on the nose giving you a slight taper on a twin shape.

FEATURES:
TAPERED MIDBITETight turns, stable landings and float Tapered Midbite blends the response of a narrow waist width with the stability of a wider nose and narrower tail for powder flotation.The design steps a single section of each sidecut inwards between the insert packs. This single long disruption of the sidecut between the bindings cheats the waist width narrower, providing quicker edge-to-edge response. Meanwhile, from your bindings out to the end of the sidecut we maintain a wider board width that improves float in pow and is a stable platform. The Step inwards on the front is deeper than the Step outwards on the back creating a slight taper in the tail allowing the tail to be just a little narrower than the nose but without losing the twin feel.
POPLAR/PAULOWNIA/BAMBOO CORE
Creating a lighter, more responsive core than the Full Poplar. The Poplar + Bamboo uses the same durable core, lightens it up by replacing 30% of the Poplar with Paulownia and then inserts two bamboo stringers down the full length for added pop and response.
