Never Summer Proto CT X Snowboard - Wide - 2012
The do-anything Never Summer Proto CTX Wide Snowboard offers all-mountain versatility to those with bigger feet. Bomber construction holds up to abuse from rails and cliff drops alike, and the R.C. hybrid profile gives you the float you want in pow and the edge hold and power you need on hardpack.
- R.C. profile features rocker underfoot and between the bindings with camber outside the bindings for a playful, floaty ride that is stable on hard pack at high speeds
- STS Pretensioned fiberglass has elastomer stringers between the laminates for unmatched strength and edge hold
- Carbonium carbon laminates increase torsional strength without adding weight
- NS Superlight core blends super light wood with durable hardwood for unmatched strength-to-weight ratio
- Vario Power Grip sidecut uses three different radii, going from deeper towards the tip and tail, to a straight section in the middle, for increased edgehold
- Twin shape for stomping tricks switch
- Durasurf XT sintered base has added graphite to make it Never Summer's fastest one yet
- Carbonium topsheet is responsive and crack- and chip-resistant
- Sintered P-tex sidewall won't crack in cold temperatures
Bottom Line: Peak to park without skipping a beat.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

I rode this board last year and fell in love with it. I am About 6'1 and I rode a 154, had no problem charging powder on it, super fun in the park also. This board is a all around killer. Hands down one of the most durable boards i have ever been on. LOVE NEVER SUMMER.......
Great Board

Picked up the NS Proto CTX 158 and love it. Took a run or two to get use to the reverse camber set up, but really dug it. Great turning, edgehold, great pop, real responsive, but also forgiving. Great all mtn destroyer. Plus made in 'merica!
Is it extremely flexy? I know it's a 5 but all board brands
Is it extremely flexy? I know it's a 5 but all board brands are different. Was wondering if anyone that owned it could tell me how much flex this actually gave. I like stiffer boards for park and such.

I have a '12 and was comin off a lib tech trs...this board will do anything and it is soft id give it a 5...at really high speeds you feel the chatter but isn't scary...I took in 2' of powder at snowbird, UT and all the ice rinks where I live in New England...awesome board light as a feather, scratch resistant topsheet

Hey Kevin,
No it is not as soft as a lot of 5's out there. Plenty of flex for getting your press on but still has a backbone for landing big jumps and holding an edge. Really sick board.

Proto CT X is the (stuff)!

I'm a park rat that has been taking all my bag of tricks into the all mountain scene. This board is my soul mate.
I've been riding Full rocker/flat rocker boards for 3 years and these cambers are great in the park but when it came to groomers and all terrain, these boards are dead and unresponsive. Because if this, I've been very disappointed and started getting over snowboarding. The Neversummer Proto CT X has made snowboarding alive to me again. It's a flexy board for park but holds edges and more responsive than anything I've tried before.
If you are a boarder, looking to kill all over the mountain and take your snowboarding to the next level, look no further. The Proto is for you.

This board is awesome, its rocker and camber profiles make for a really playful forgiving feel and it makes for easy moving in the flats- just penguin walk down the trail! Rode well all over on ice and particularly well in the park, definitely recommend
proto CTX 152

Just got a chance to ride my proto CTX 152 this past weekend and i was amazed, it blew every board ive ridden so far out of the water. i sized down from my 156 arbor westmark (Which cannot even compare to this board) and its so much more nimble, responsive and damp even though my CTX is wider.
its not as stiff as some make it out to be, i have a buddy who rides a 157 evo and i rode them back to back, and my proto felt just as playful, but held its own better at speed. Felt fine in the park as well.
btw im 5'11, 175lbs and a size 11 boot. rode this with M burton Re:flex Genesis and it was a match made in heaven.
Change me.

i demoed the revolver which has is the wider evo and the proto ctx with a 10 boot and there was plenty of room i dont think that you would have a problem on the ctx but stay away from a regular width board unless you rock a fairly wide and heavily angled stance.

yO Brett.. got a question.. I wear like a 11-11.5 boot.. You think I could make it on a CT witout toe drag? Or should I go with the CT X? Also have you tried buttering on it yet? If so how tough is it to pull off on this board? Thanks!
