One Board.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Maax is Whitespace's all-mountain shape for the rider who refuses to own three boards. Park laps before lunch, high-speed groomer carves after, and the morning it finally dumps, this is still the board you grab. For 2027 it lands in the High Desert colourway, with the same proven build underneath: a spoon-shaped directional nose, directional hybrid camber and a dual radius sidecut that add up to a board that floats when it's deep and bites when it's firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is a poplar and balsa core laid in full-length strips: light, lively and quick to answer your feet. Whitespace wraps it in Dura-LT Carbon on top, an ultra-light, densely woven 45° fibreglass with carbon inserts that smooths out chatter, and Carbon X45 underneath, tri-axial fibreglass with 45° carbon inserts that loads up power and snap. The result feels energetic without feeling twitchy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual radius sidecut is where the Maax earns its all-mountain stripes. Blended arcs let you flick it into a quick turn, then hold the edge when you open it up at speed. Camber keeps it stable and poppy, rocker adds float, and the spoon nose planes up and glides instead of diving. A sintered base, recyclable thermoplastic ABS sidewalls, plant-based bio-resin and water-based inks finish the build, all backed by Whitespace's 4-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✅ Directional Hybrid Camber: camber stability and pop, with rocker float when it gets deep\u003cbr\u003e✅ Directional Spoon Shape: spoon nose planes up and glides through soft snow\u003cbr\u003e✅ Dual Radius Sidecut: blended arcs for quick turn entry and edge grip at speed\u003cbr\u003e✅ Poplar + Balsa Core: full-length strips cut weight and keep the flex responsive\u003cbr\u003e✅ Dura-LT Carbon Top Glass: ultra-light 45° dense weave with carbon inserts for a smoother ride\u003cbr\u003e✅ Carbon X45 Bottom Glass: tri-axial fibreglass with 45° carbon inserts for power and snap\u003cbr\u003e✅ Sintered Base: absorbs more wax, runs faster and lasts longer\u003cbr\u003e✅ Thermoplastic ABS Sidewalls: impact resistant and recyclable\u003cbr\u003e✅ Plant-Based Bio-Resin \u0026amp; Water-Based Inks\u003cbr\u003e✅ 4-Year Warranty: one year longer than the industry standard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for Australian Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAustralian resorts can hand you three seasons in one day: firm, scraped groomers first thing, soft slush by lunch and the odd proper dump that turns Buller, Hotham or Falls Creek into a playground. The Maax is built for exactly that mix. The camber between your feet grips when the runs are hard and icy, while the rocker and spoon nose keep you on top when the snow goes soft and heavy in the afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual radius sidecut makes it easy to change turn shape on crowded runs, and the light balsa core keeps it lively for side hits and rollers on the way down. Heading to Japan or Canada? The spoon nose and directional shape are made for deeper snow, so it travels well.
