Check out the new Public Research Snowboard 2027
Discovery and Pure Performance
The Public Research Snowboard is the most freeride focused deck in the lineup, designed for the rider who wants to dissect the entire mountain. It features a directional shape with 8mm of taper, allowing it to float effortlessly in deep powder and rail hardpack turns with precision. While it is built for the steep and deep, it keeps the signature Public freestyle DNA intact, ensuring you can still get creative on every natural feature you find.
Shop Take
The Research Snowboard is the board we’ve been waiting for at Milosport. It utilizes the Mountain Alert Camber profile—a directional version of their hybrid camber that places a larger emphasis on camber for elite edge hold and pop. The early rise in the nose is more exaggerated than the tail, which makes turn initiation effortless and keeps you on top of the snow when things get deep. With a Carbon V in the tips and full length Carbon Stringers, this board is incredibly responsive and snappy, making it the perfect tool for the "on mountain experiment" of pure performance.
-
Mountain Alert Camber: Majority camber underfoot for maximum control and stability, paired with a rockered nose for superior float and a playful finish to every turn.
-
8mm Tapered Directional Shape: The wider nose and narrower tail allow the board to sink in the rear and lift in the front, providing a natural surfy feel in powder.
-
Carbon V & Carbon Stringers: A high performance additive package that focuses energy toward the contact points and adds longitudinal snap for explosive ollies.
-
Poplar Light Core: A premium wood core that keeps the board nimble and lightweight without sacrificing the durability Public is known for.
