This winter sees the tenth year of production at the Endeavor Snowboard factory over in Vancouver, Canada... and boy have they gone all out!
Endeavor Snowboard Design is a Canadian snowboard company based in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was founded in 2002 by pro rider Max Jenke and Transworld Magazine staff photographer Scott Serfas.
Endeavor sets itself apart from other, more commercial brands, by teaming up with innovative artists to provide funky and inspirational boards, whilst still holding onto the importance of high tech functionability.
Guerilla Series 2012/13 Base
Since birth the brand has appeared on covers of the most prestigious snowboarding magazines, won countless board test awards for riding excellence and has worked with some of the most innovative artists in the world.

Flat kicks, double carbon beams, phantom woodcore, super camber, rubber sidewall inlays and basalt glass…the High 5 is a beast just waiting to be unleashed. Hands down the most aggressive performance board in the Endeavor line, this board is loaded with Pop that demands respect. Snap from edge to edge at lightning speed, blast off park hits with aggression and even float pow with ease. There’s no doubt about it, the High 5 is a serious freestyle machine.
The first child of the Archetype R&D Lab, the goal was simple: to create a completely new style of board that is stable yet loose, aggressive yet fun and soft yet poppy. Wider than the average deck, this board is designed to be ridden 3-4cm shorter than the typical board and the brand new DT2 technology will make sure that it will never hook an edge.
Completely redesigned for 2013, the Guerilla is the perfect board for the rider who wants the ultimate freestyle board at a price that will leave them with enough cash to buy lift tickets. Take the Guerilla in the park, take it on the groomers, take it in the trees or take it in the pow. The forgiving flex, smooth blend zones and moustache style camber profile makes it one of the most versatile boards in the Endeavor line.
Perfected in the Whistler backcountry and at some of the best heli operations in the world, the Next Series is a freerider’s dream. Taper in the tail allows it to sink slightly, which in turn lifts the nose, making pow riding a breeze. Incredible to look at, the satin finished wood veneer topsheet serves a functional purpose by stiffening the board without adding any additional glass or carbon. Finished off with a sublimated sintered 7500 base for speed and a Phantom wood core for flex memory and Pop and we have the perfect all mountain weapon.
This year marks the 10th year that the Live Series has been a part of the Endeavor line-up, so we wanted to make it the best to date. Featuring a sublimated and sintered 7500 base for speed and color brilliance, carbon double beams for Pop, a direct printed TPU top-sheet to show every single tiny detail of it’s art, the Live is ready for another 10 years as everyone’s favorite go-to board.
If park laps and rails are the rider’s forte, the Color is their board. New stance widths for 2013 allow bigger stances on the shorter boards in the line. The rubber sidewall inlays will protect the board from impact while giving the smoothest ride. This true twin, reverse camber board has become the Endeavor team’s board choice for jibbing.
B.O.D (Board of Directors) Series
The flagship of the Endeavor Line for 10 years straight. The B.O.D. stands for the Board Of Directors; this board is the pride and joy of the people behind the scenes at Endeavor. The B.O.D. has changed identities over the years, first as an aggressive freestyle board, then as a directional all mountain board and now as a zero camber, tech laden twin, but one thing remains the same, it still stands as the pinnacle of performance and design.
This women’s specific twin is a no nonsense, take no prisoners park dominator. The deep sidecut makes it maneuverable; the low profile tips and torsionally soft flex makes it forgiving, while the smooth blend zones and moustache style camber profile combined with carbon makes it Pop. The sidewall rubber inlays work as a bumper during any impact and create an unbelievably smooth ride on hard snow. The BF is your perfect match.
Completely redesigned for 2013, the new Diamond is a zero camber true twin featuring DowTech at the contact points, which eliminates edge hook and creates a much more loose and fun ride. Carbon V’s in the nose and tail allow the board to twist while generating an intense amount of stored energy and Pop just waiting to be unleashed on park jumps or backcountry booters. Freestyle or all mountain, the Diamond doesn’t discriminate, it only destroys.
