YES Basic Snowboard | 2027
Back To The Core
The YES Basic 2027 is the board that built the brand — a true twin freestyle weapon that proves simplicity, done properly, is still unbeatable. Born from the YES Un.Inc philosophy and refined season after season, the Basic remains the benchmark for riders who want one board that can hit park, carve groomers, press rails, and lap the whole mountain without compromise. This is freestyle snowboarding in its purest form.
For 2027, YES have elevated the platform with a Sintered Ptex base upgrade, making this the fastest, most durable Basic ever produced. Combined with UnderBite edge technology and the trusted CamRock 3-4-3 profile, the Basic delivers powerful edge hold, smooth pop, and a playful yet controlled flex. Whether you're progressing in the park or looking for a reliable all-mountain twin, this is the board that continues to define YES Snowboards worldwide.
The CamRock 3-4-3 profile is what makes the Basic so versatile — camber between the feet acts as a spring, keeping contact points on the snow as you go in and out of turns for edge hold and pop. Once compressed, the camber accentuates the rocker and lifts the nose further out of the snow for float. UnderBite edge technology redistributes your weight across three key zones — initiating, holding, and releasing turns — for stronger carving and grip without making the board feel catchy or demanding. The Full Poplar woodcore delivers a predictable, consistent flex from tip to tail with a balance of durability and lightweight feel that suits both park progression and all-mountain riding.

UnderBite Technology
UnderBite repositions the sidecut inward at key binding zones, creating three distinct edge pressure zones: initiation, hold, and release. This increases edge leverage and pressure distribution for stronger carving performance, better grip on firm snow, and smoother energy transfer through turns — without making the board overly aggressive or catchy. It's one of the reasons the Basic has remained a global bestseller for over a decade.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the YES Basic and the YES Standard?
The Basic is the entry point — true twin shape, CamRock 3-4-3, medium flex (6/10), Full Poplar core, Biax fibreglass, and UnderBite edges. It's built for freestyle progression and all-mountain versatility at an accessible price. The Standard is the step-up performance version — directional volume twin, CamRock 3-4-3, stiff flex (8/10), Torrent Core, Triax + Carbon fibreglass, MidBite edges, and 10-Pack + SlamBack inserts for powder setback. The Standard suits aggressive riders who charge hard and want more power and response; the Basic suits riders who want a versatile, playful daily driver without the demanding stiffness. If you're not yet riding at an aggressive advanced level, the Basic is the better value.
What bindings pair well with the YES Basic?
The Basic suits a soft to medium flex binding that matches its 6/10 character. From our range we'd recommend the YES. Select, Nitro Team, Burton Cartel, or Flux DS — all solid pairings for a medium-flex freestyle-oriented twin. The YES. Select and Nitro Team lean more playful and press-friendly; the Burton Cartel and Flux DS offer a firmer, more precise feel for riders who like to drive the board harder on groomers and jumps. Not sure which suits your riding? Call us on 03 9421 2293 or come in.
Is the YES Basic suitable for beginners?
Yes — it's one of the best beginner-to-intermediate freestyle boards available. The medium flex (6/10), CamRock 3-4-3 profile, and UnderBite edges make it genuinely forgiving and easy to turn while still providing the pop and edge hold needed to progress quickly. It's not so soft that it becomes a throwaway learner board — the Basic has kept riders interested and challenged through multiple seasons of progression. If you're in your first or second season and interested in freestyle, this is an excellent starting point. If you just want to cruise the mountain without any park interest, something even softer (like the Bataleon Feelbetter or Jones Rally Cat) might suit better.
About YES Snowboards
YES Snowboards was founded in 2009 by a crew of professional snowboarders including DCP, JP Solberg, and Romain de Marchi — riders who wanted to build boards driven by performance and passion rather than corporate pressure. The Un.Inc philosophy that drives YES has shaped a range of boards known for their playful personality, technical edge technology, and honest construction. Based in Switzerland, YES is now stocked worldwide and continues to be one of the most respected freestyle and all-mountain snowboard brands in the world.

About Yes Snowboards
It all began back in 2008 when Romain de Marchi (RDM) was widely regarded as the most explosive snowboarder on the planet, having successfully mastered Chad's gap and introducing big freestyle tricks into the backcountry. Jan Petter Solberg (JPS) was also pushing the boundaries of freestyle in the backcountry, while David Carrier Porcheron (DCP) was busy exploring and discovering new hits and lines across the British Columbia backcountry. These three influential figures were revolutionizing the world of snowboarding, inspiring generations of riders to come. However, their reign at the top was cut short when the 2008 global financial crisis hit, leading to the dissolution of the UnInc program they had built, and subsequently losing their board sponsor. At the time, Obama was running for president with the famous slogan "YES WE CAN", and this message resonated with the trio as they proposed the idea of building a new snowboard brand. Despite facing discouragement and skepticism from others, they were determined to make it happen. They approached the Nidecker brothers and eventually produced their first boards, which were hand-painted with the phrase "YES WE CAN." Thus Yes. Snowboards were created.
