DEEP DIVE – AMPLID SINGULAR and SINGULAR TWIN SNOWBOARD REVIEW!
From hard boot shredding in the 90's to founding Amplid snowboards, (possibly the sport's most technically minded snowboard company), Peter Bauer has been at the core of snowboarding for over 30 years.
Amplid's Singular model is designed to be the holy grail of snowboarding - the board that can do it all. And while there are actually both true twin and directional versions, if you go mostly in one direction, take the Singular. If you like to ride park and switch it up, go with the Singular Twin.
Once you've made that choice you're as close to the 'Quiver of One' as you're likely to get.
We caught up with Peter in Austria in January 2024 to get under the skin of the Amplid Singular and Singular Twin models.

Change of Plan - ex-Olympic snowboarders return to the mountains. Do they still have what it takes?
มุมมอง 3.5Kหลายเดือนก่อน
The idea of this trip was simple: Can three friends who dedicated a large part of their formative years to riding halfpipe in pursuit of Olympic qualification, still rip it up, a decade after their last competitive outing? Those three riders are Dan Wakeham aged 43 (Turin 2006 Olympics), Dom Harrington, 39 (Sochi 2014 Olympics) and Ben Kilner, 35 (Vancouver 2010, Sochi 2014 Olympics). While eac...
