There¡¯s no one else that deserves this more. When it comes to progression, style, and trick selection, Gabe Ferguson is part of the cream of the crop. With a traditional background in freestyle snowboarding (Gabe went to the Olympics to ride halfpipe) and his upbringing at Mount Bachelor, Gabe¡¯s ability to bring freestyle tricks and sensibilities to natural terrain is unmatched. The Antidote is a perfect complement to Gabe¡®s all-mountain and backcountry riding style. A directional twin with a more aggressive flex, the Antidote is packed full of technology to enhance the riding experience.
This directional twin is strapped with technology, most notably, our patented SpaceGlass technology found in the tip and tail. Weight reduction and a more rigid material allows for quicker spins and better edge pressure at the contact points. Recess3D technology removes excess material from the board, minimizing swing weight and chatter while also adding visual depth to the top sheet. The Antidote¡¯s most defining feature is its 3D Base Contour. Just 3mm of contour with 3D shaping deflects snow, eases turn initiation and plows through chunder when things get hectic. Get on the Antidote wave and experience a more ¡°catch free¡± ride.
When it comes to the graphic, will you wanted to make this one hit pretty close to home. We reached out to Gabe¡¯s brother, pro snowboarder Ben Ferguson¡± in secret. Ben is an incredible artist and we love the way his brain works. Ben put pen to paper and leaned on their family dog, Frank, as the main source of Inspo a little reference to Gabe¡®s ¡°lung activity¡° and the third eye makes existing hit pretty close to home. 120 produced, available for a limited time, call your local snowboard shop. We love ya, Phat Gabe. <3

CARBON DARKWEB
Carbon stringers extend at 45 angles from the inserts in an ¡°X¡± pattern, adding responsiveness and stability at all speeds.
3D CONTOUR NOSE
3mm of convex 3D contour (spoon), gradually blended from the running surface into the nose of the board to float like hell and maintain a predictable feel on hardpack.
RECESS 3D
By reducing the amount of materials in low-stress zones, we¡¯re able to reduce the swingweight of your snowboard, while also reducing chatter in the tip and tail - all without sacrificing strength.
WAX INFUSED SINTERED 4001 BASE
Built using the hardest and fastest Sintered base material on the market from Crown, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 holds wax longer than other Sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer.
A1 CORE
Lightweight, snappy, and durable, our A1 Core is made from three renewable species of timber - Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia. Aspen-dominant to highlight the snap and response of this wood, we¡¯ve combined it with Bamboo at 30 ¡ã underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. We¡¯ve also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail help to reduce swingweight.
ICG 20 CARBON GLASS
Increases the snowboard's pop, liveliness, and longevity without adding unnecessary rigidity.
SPACEGLASS
An American made Aerospace grade precure fiberglass core insert used to provide unmatched structural performance at reduced weight. SpaceGlassTM inserts increase edge hold along contact points, reduce chatter, and provide unequaled durability.
2 X 4 INSERT BINDING MOUNTING
2x4 Insert packs allow for secure binding mounting while optimizing stance-width options. Time-tested, secure, and stable.
