I rode my 162 DF 23 days this year in Montana in every condition I can emagine and I still feel the board has even more to offer. Comming from a Never Summer Snowtrooper it did take me a few days to set up my stance and get accustomed to the triple camber. It did feel a little squirrelly on the flats the first day but once I got the stance perfect I trust it at any speed and it will GO! Floating is a given but on groomers it will lay down perfect carves. I just wish I would have gotten it a year ago. This is my 3ed Neversummer and I look forward to my number 4 in a year or two. Thank you for making them in the USA

6’ 3” 265lbs size 12 boot 165x is a good fit. Coming from a full Camber I would Highly recommend the triple camber for anyone looking to switch over. Nice work Never Summer!!! Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful online helping me pick the board. BTW like the graphics on the new Mavrix you brought the bear back!
So I'm a old school rider that had been on the same deck for 20 years and bought this as basically my mid life crisis at the age of 45. Honestly can't say enough good things about it. The rocker profile was a new experience and I love it. The thing is so playful and the triple camber gives me so much control in carving it's crazy. Biggest thing is the acceleration. Compared to my old traditional camber, because I can get to the edges so easily it truly feels like I am up to spend in half the time. Seriously great board. I had demoed several before deciding on this one and I recommend it for anybody!
Он реально крутой, фристайл-фрирайд генетически заложен в эту доску,реально может заменить и джибовою и фрирайдную и оллмаунтин.
Hola, compre la NS Proto FR el 2023, el año pasado anduve mucho por fueras de pista en Las Leñas Argentina, cerro martin, el collar, valle hermoso, me costo acostumbrarme, luego ese mismo año viaje a Ushuaia, ahi comence a entender el triple camber. Este año volvi a las Lañas, por Dios que tabla, nada puede deterla, es un 4x4, nieve carton, escalones de hielo, hielo, nieve polvo, pozos, realmente agarra todo y lo hace pedazos, cuando quieres ir fuerte… prepárate, esto vuela!!!! Realmente es un misil!!! Tengo dos Tablas muy buenas que ya no uso mas, una burton y una head 100% camber, siempre prefiero la FR.
