What is a twin tip?
It is a snowboard where the tip and tail are exactly the same width. This is the most common shape of a snowboard. There are two types of twin boards- a true twin and a directional twin. A true twin means the board is 100% symmetrical. The stance is centered, the flex is even, and the sidecut is radial. This is the shape you find mostly on freestyle boards. A directional twin has twin tips and sometimes a centered stance, but the flex is directional and/or the sidecut is progressive. This is the most versatile shape and is commonly found on all-mountain snowboards.
