Shepherd Tour - Factory Blems
Lively | Precise | Nimble
“Nimble yet calculated, the Shepherd moves me through the mountains with intent and purpose.” - Nick Russell
Blems are largely due to cosmetic imperfections or subtle shaping processes which we evolved out of and thus downgraded prior versions to spotlight improvements. There is nothing wrong with the integrity of these boards and we back the warranty on these just as we would production grade snowboards. All current year blems are listed at a 10% discount below retail price.
Explanations and/or photos of specific blemishes are available upon request. For any additional questions, do not hesitate to reach us via email to hello@wndr-alpine.com, live chat (left side of any page on the website) or by phone at 801.415.1815.
Designed for the nomadic in nature, The Shepherd is a fine tuned extension of body and mind, a vehicle to express creativity in the wild. Its lightweight body is for those who want to reach the next ridge on the horizon while preserving energy for the descent. Couloirs, steep pitches and spines, the Shepherd inspires confidence in serious terrain, as well as adaptability wherever you may roam.. Directional camber, an early rise nose, deep sidecut, and a healthy dose of taper delivers a quick and nimble attitude to flow with the mountains and into the unknown. Equipped with our Algal Core and Algal Wall materials, you’ll also get excellent stability when it matters most. Break trail aboard the Shepherd and realize your destiny.
