Never Summer also won a Snowboard Magazine 2013 Platinum Pick "Excellence in Design" award for the Cobra, a new all-mountain freestyle board. Here's the word on SnowboardMag.com:
SnowboardMag.com Cobra by Never Summer.
"Aggressive? Yes. Damaging? Equally. A ride on the Cobra's Bi-Directional Rocker Camber profile combined with Carbonium Laminate construction is to experience home cooked tech of the highest level, a platform from which Never Summer has led the industry for over 20 years. With a flared out nose and a spade shaped tail, this board slices through powder with grim precision. Unlike a pow-specific board, the Cobra can strike any terrain with confidence handling high-speed groomers and terrain parks with equally ruinous consequence."
