Swift
Swift snowboards were the original inspiration for Tim Canaday's Shaper Series. 20mm of taper, a mid-firm flex and Rocker Camber allow for awesome everywhere performance, in or out of powder. Now, with new aesthetics on nose and tail and the same smooth, surfy, all-mountain functionality you’ve grown to love, this is the powder board you’ll choose to ride in all conditions.
The inspiration for this board came from my recent trip to Nepal, where I got to hike around the largest mountains in the world. Standing underneath Everest was one of my favorite moments to date and this board is my vision of those Himalayan mountains.

I’ve been wanting a Swift for a long time and now I finally have one! I’ve got a couple of days at the mountain on it now and it is so easy to ride. It is so fun in the trees. It floats easily on top and turns incredibly quick and easy. On groomers, it does carve quite well as advertised. Can’t wait to ride it on a deep powder day. The mountain graphics on it are beautiful and like all never summer boards, the quality, fit and finish really show. Thanks NS
The Swift rips - I've tried quite a few other popular volume shifted boards from other companies, and nothing glides as effortlessly through powder as the Swift. The bonus is that it still functions on chunder and groomers if you need to transition between runs. Combined with the insane durability Never Summer is known for, it's perfection. Love this board!
Straight up, this is the best powder board I've ever ridden. There isn't even any competition. This board wants to "surf". I don't know how else to describe it but a very playful powder junky. It drives into quick and agile turns, allowing me to charge through narrow trees. The only reason this isn't my new daily rider is its lack of triple camber tech. There were a few occasions where I couldn't hold a good edge in the crud or on an icy run that was skied out. As a Midwest rider, I don't see enough powder to truly enjoy the needs of this board 😭
This board was recommended to me by Vince when I explained to him what I was looking for: Surfy, playful, and slays the fluffy deep stuff. We recently got nuked on in CO and I took this board out for a spin... it did not disappoint! I was floating and "wheelying" over everything. The float was phenomenal, and this board turns with absolute ease. I've ridden the board a few days on groomed and sometimes icy days and it holds its own there too. The loose playful feel is good everywhere.
So, I know this isn’t a review on the new mod. BUT, I bought last years model, and after a season, I’ve got this thing DIALED.
The swift is suuuuuuuch a stoke stick. I’ve hit thigh deep pow, knee deep pow, ankle deep pow then popped back on to groomers. It just shreds everything. It’s sooooo playful and after getting to know her a bit, I’ve never felt more confident on a board.
Today was -16 in Idaho, and had about a foot of pow on the shoulders, groomers were running fast… and she just handled. Whatever I asked of her, she shredded. Such, such a fun board. Having the ability to thrash some pow and immediately hop back on to the groomers was just mind boggling.
Solid stick.
