Only one words

May be the best swallow in the world

Never used one .........

45 / 50 boards hand made ........... !

For me the spirit of freeride in France

In "La Grave" there is writting on a tee shirt :

Freeriding is not a fashion , it's a life style

300% with this ............
Sticks are for looser , born to be a snowboarder

Beautiful
Kafi indeed makes the most beautiful and performing powder boards in the world...Many try to copy him, but he has so much experience his boards just work better than the rest... :).. got two of them ( magistral and amok), and cant wait to order a 3d ( global) in the future..
thnx for sharing the vids...say hi to kafi if you see him :)

You speak truth!

I've already ordered the Global (in fact it's the most favorite board of Kafi, Tina, Franky and lots of La Grave locals)

Nils, as long as i live in Russia, you have much better chance seeing Kafi than me ;)

indeed i see him every winter usually for a short time when i drive around la Grave !
Global is a nice versatile board, because conditions with perfect pure powder are rare and you need versatility !
Heard you had scary times in Montgenevre with F and T...?

Global has better reactivity than Magistral (the flexes helps you to turn faster in steep terrain), performance difference with Magistral in deep powder is negligible and on-piste it is also better than Magistral.
And for deepest powder nothing can beat Amok. So if you have one-board-that-handles-it-all - it would be Global.

Scary, you mean, avalanche? Yeah...It is such an irony to ride in la meije, one of the most technical and difficult terrains on planet, than go to montgenevre (which is like a "resort", compared to meije) and get caught in avalanche...

Always stay awared, my friend...Always...
