BOARD MATERIALS
01. Topsheet: Glossy PBT. We do not add toxic lacquer for these boards.
02. Biaxial fiberglass: Biaxial consists of two layers that are stitched together. The two layers runs 0 ̊/90 ̊ degrees to each other creating a smooth feel while provides pop.
03. Woodcore: Full length Poplar wood core.
04. Sidewall: We use state of the art Urethane that runs the whole perimeter of the wood core for a perfect bond. Urethane is extremely damp and makes for a better overall ride.
05. Epoxy Resins: We use a specially formulated two part epoxy resin system to bond all of the materials in a snowboard.
06. Inserts: Stainless Steel.
07. Biaxial fiberglass: Biaxial consists of two layers that are stitched together. The two layers runs 0 ̊/90 ̊ degrees to each other creating a smooth feel while provides pop.
08. Rubber Dampening: Rubber foil between the edge and fiberglass helps with bonding. It also helps with over all board chattering.
09. Edge: Rockwell 48.
10. Base Material: Sintered IS 7500. Super durable and fast base material. Sublimated artwork.
CAMBER PROFILE
The Directive Series comes with a multi camber or camber 2.0. The camber stops 50mm before the contacts. This helps the board to be less catchy while flat based on cat tracks. When putting the board on edge you get all that effective edge helping the board feel more stable at high speeds. We also CnC a thinner zone between the bindings that results in a more playful ride.
NEGATIVE CORE PROFILE
The Directive Series comes with a negative core profile. We remove some of the wood core between the bindings to help balance the flex from tip to tail. The board feels more playful and adds foot control on all terrain.

Amazing board

Don’t sleep on buying a Wired Directive if going all over the mountain is your thing. I was able to use it at Mammoth and it was the perfect deck. Plowed through the typical mid day push piles, lays all kinds of carves, lots of pop and excelled on the upper steeps. I am 5’6” 175 riding 155.

Just received my Directive Series. Amazing quality out of the wrapper - base tune looks spot on. Will post an update once I get on it

I bought this board because of Angry Snowboarder’s feedback and then meeting Erik Traulsen (FN’RAD podcast) at my local hill .
The two Angry reviews for the Directive are spot on. I would say the torsional stiffness is a little above medium even after break in. The fit/finish was really on point and the edges were screaming sharp. It is one of those decks you have to see in person to appreciate the shape. The tips are longer than you might expect and the kick is spot on. It works really well in the heavy chop we have in southern California. The base glide is above average and it seems to have some light structure.
In terms of sizing I was between the 155 and 157. I wanted the tighter sidecut of the 55, but the extra width of the 57. My boots are 9.5US, but I run a 20.25” stance (setback 1”) so I need more girth under foot. I went with the 157 and it was a good decision for a daily driver. The longer tips, early rise, and shorter EE make it feel closer to a 155 on snow. The 8.2m sidecut can still make tight turns with some center flexing, but it doesn’t have the “divey” feel in deeper snow. Even though the overall flex is medium, it rides better with stiffer bindings that have a full size disc.
The Directive is a great all mountain freestyle twin. Not to mention it is literally half the price of other boards with the same features. I am really looking forward to trying a Canadian made Wired, especially the Recon.
