At Gilson, we design snowboard bases in three dimensions to give an enhanced feel on the mountain. While the heightened performance characteristics are obvious to the rider, our new construction techniques posed several uncharted challenges. We were connected to the Materials Characterization Lab (MCL) at Penn State early on, and together we were able to test, analyze, and ultimately understand the science behind our specialized adhesion. Not only are the folks at MCL crazy smart and innovative, but they're also good people, and that counts for a lot.
