Vaporweight just got ligther: The UNW8 is the ultimate high tech weapon for clinically destroying all terrain. Lighter and livelier than you can imagine, it is the zenith of 20 years of board design and materials development.
We squeezed Amplid's flagship weight saving, high performance materials and technologies into the Paradigma's proven directional shape. The Paradigma just got vicious! Carve trenches into slick-ass hardpack, fire out of turns like someone packed C4 under your bindings and hang weightlessly 10ft out of a superpipe. The vaporweight UNW8 is defining new levels of response, edge hold and pop, without compromise.
The world's lightest white-knuckle ride.

  • ADDITIONAL WIDTH
    Got boot size 12 or bigger? Did that physical detail disqualify you for the UNW8 or the Paradigma? Well, you are on board now: We have added an extra wide 163 for those 2 models. Tow and heel drag symptomes are history now.
  • HEXO2 CORE TECHNOLOGY
    Spin to win with effortless style. Our HEXO2 core replaces specific areas of weightier wood at the tips with featherlight recycled paper honeycomb, practically eliminating swing weight.
  • SINTERED GE 7.2 LIGHTSPEED BASE/STONE FINISH
    This is the very same material used in record breaking race skis and snbs. Squeezing yourself into a Lycra catsuit and going gate bashing probably isn't your thing, but this almost frictionless base will guarantee that when you point straight you'll be riding as fast as gravity will allow.
  • V-POP CARBON STRINGER
    You don't need to ride a crinklecut French Fry to get vice-like edge hold. V-Pop Carbon Stringers channel power from your feet to the extremes of your board's effective edge. The result is a snow magnet. The only sideeffect we know of is explosive pop!
  • HELIO P15 ULTRALIGHT WOOD CORE
    Spin to win with effortless style. Our HEXO2 core replaces specific areas of weightier wood at the tips with featherlight recycled paper honeycomb, practically eliminating swing weight.
  • P.L.T. GLOSS UV COATING
    Love high gloss lacquer finishes but hate lacquer cracks? Completely crack proof, tough as old boots, shinier than Monty Burns' waxed scalp and ecofriendly; our UV coating is the bomb!
  • FLY TIPS
    Our tapered Fly Tips remove the necessity of bringing the wood core or a TPU spacer to the tips, reducing swing weight and increasing playfulness.
  • DOOMSDAY CAMBER/ROCKER
    Believe it or not, even glass fibres have a degree of elasticity. Using pre-stretched fibres in our laminates means you can be sure that your shred will never feel lifeless or lack pop throughout its life.
