New for 2026, the Never Summer Proto T3 Eclipse is a bold directional board that blends deep-rooted freeride heritage with futuristic camber geometry. Featuring the debut of the Triple Camber Recurve profile, it’s a powerful, carving-forward shape with fluid float and all-terrain control built in. Tapered, setback, and loaded with tech, this is your precision tool for the steep and fast.

Why we like it:

It’s everything you love about a hard-charging freeride board, stability, power, and dampness, with just enough spark and snap to keep it engaging at every turn.

Who it's for:

Best for advanced freeriders who want a stiffer, directional shape with tons of edge grip and a deeply stable ride. This is a serious board for technical terrain and big descents.

Highlights:

The Triple Camber Recurve profile blends camber, rocker, and multi-zone pressure control in a new format that carves aggressively and floats smoothly in deeper snow. The 10mm taper and 1” setback shift your stance for natural directionality and ease of turn initiation, especially in softer conditions. A PowerSurf Wood Core anchors the board’s feel, while Directional Carbon Mapping ensures stability and response without added weight. The R.I.P. Edge dampening system keeps it smooth even at speed or in chop.

Things to consider:

This is a committed board, those who like riding switch or are newer to freeride geometry may prefer something more centered or playful. The Eclipse is built for engagement, not coasting.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Rides true to size. The tapered, setback shape naturally provides extra float and edge length, so most riders can confidently go with their usual freeride size without compromise.
