Every Third Thursday: Total Noncents Penny Snowboard

Every Third Thursday is about ideas, about engineering, about the beauty of manufacturing and always pushing the boundaries. So what happens when Dave Lee and the Signal Snowboards crew come up with an idea that has nothing to do with any of those meaningful aspects? They run with it! This month’s factory challenge is to build a snowboard integrating pennies—pennies in the base and “penny traction” edges specifically. Jake Olson-Elm is the chosen one to ride what might just be the worst ETT idea ever. Priceless! Hit play now to watch some noncents go down! Heads or tails, we think this month’s episode is still a winner!

that board was never gonna ride well

i wonder if they used our 50 centers in the rails if it would have been like an ice carving super version of magne-traction or whatever libtechs ice edges is called.
