GNU Banked Country C3 vs Never Summer Proto FR DF

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freeride terrain, while the GNU Banked Country C3 leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature hybrid (camber/rocker) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff).
