The Raptor’s stealth appearance alludes to the ethos of its design: Never Summer didn’t design this thing for wusses.  This high performance freeride deck relies on a directional shape and Rocker Camber profile.  This design combines a longer camber up front with a rocker shifted towards the rear of the deck for a responsive ride and enhanced performance while carving.  The NS Superlight wood core and Carbonium Laminate Technology—which places a matrix of carbon above and below the core—provides a durable and snappy ride.  For additional durability, this deck rocks P-tex sidewalls and a Carbonium topsheet.  Strap into the Raptor and embrace your need for speed.
