It was about time we heard news on a new Shinn board!
Check it out here
It's called the Supershinn...
... and its the replacement for the Player, which was the contest freestyle board that had, unsurprisingly, limited success outside the team rider's ambition of scoring points in the contest arena. This new board part uses Monk technology, together with some pretty cool new tip channeling and a refined outline to bring near Monk levels of control and realworld performance to a board that is capable of incredible pop. It's undoubtably ahead of the old player in terms of expert freestyle (pop and landing ability), and with the current windrange, comfort and carving ability of the latest shinn shapes, it's destined to be a big hit with the mainstream.
I also think it's probably the best looking board he has made so far..
This board will not replace the Monk in terms of freeride capability, but if anyone is thinking of unhooking, then the Supershinn will do for their freestyle what the Monk did for their freeride!
Full technical details, media and prices to follow in the coming weeks. Boards will be arriving in the UK at the end of August.
