Snowboard Life Top 25: Gnu Choice

"Everyone in the Gnu shop loves to ride the Choice," said Mervin V.P. of Marketing Pete Saari. Kevin liked the Choice so much he made a comparison to marriage: "If I could meet a woman this lively, stable, and fun to ride, I'd get hitched." If you know Kevin, that's a grand statement! Janet focused on its great edge hold in big arcing turns, and Lisa was ready to charge the GS course-another grand statement, considering her history. The Choice is similar in construction to Gnu's pro models but without the pros' names attached. Using torsion-box construction, it has a quick-turning radial sidecut with a long, floaty-in-powder nose. "It felt really secure in different terrain," said Robyn.
