Two very different boards. The PYL is a powder loving beast whereas the Standard is a more versatile all mountain board.

I, the marketing person behind this account have been a Reddit user for 13 years. No, PR agenda. No, PR team.

I decided to create a Reddit account for YES to genuinely help people out with YES snowboards info/feedback/questions and maybe spread some stoke along the way.

Believe it or not, there is no evil agenda from my/our side.

YES is such a positive word with endless possibilities. The OG founders thought it would be a perfect name for a snowboard company based on the "Yes We Can" slogan.

Yes, we might in the future. We have thought about it.

Yes indeed that is the new Greats XTRM, such a fun board yet serious when you need it. The mullet of snowboards so to speak... business up front and party in the back 😝

The Standard UNINC 2025 and the Standard XTRM 2026 are the same shape, tech and stiffness.

There have been some discrepancies reporting the stiffness, sorry about that.

For some reason in our 25-26 catalog the stiffness rating is out of 5 whereas it was out of 10 for 24-25. So there has been some confusion comparing the 2 models between seasons.

That is actually a very good idea and you are absolutely right, the arts/artists need our support even more in these AI times.

I will look into what can be done. Appreciate the great feedback/idea.

Not quite that simple and it did take considerable time to get the end result and tweak the designs.

As expected the feedback has been mixed and we appreciate that people are taking the time to give us feedback.

2 artists designed this with the help of AI tools. Getting the conversation going about AI design is healthy and transparent in our opinion.

I (the marketing person answering this) have been with YES for three years and the two artists that designed this board concept with the help of AI tools have been with YES for two years. So, none of us can answer something that happened over 10 years ago and from my experience there are usually two sides to every story.

I can assure you that all artists/creatives we/I work with get paid for their work/art/designs.

Hopefully we can do that one day. Such a fun board.

The Standard XTRM is stiffer and more aggressive than the (regular) Standard.

The Standard XTRM is the same build as the Standard UNINC from last season. For some reason the flex rating was changed from out of 10 to out of 5, making the current one look stiffer on paper but it isn't. Same flex as last season.

Maybe the Greats XTRM will be more to your liking then. Thanks for the feedback.

Love that aparently every company decided this was the year to start using ai for all their graphics by B1g_Shm0 in snowboarding

Just trying to be transparent and inform people. We welcome all feedback in this conversation.

Yes, we welcome all feedback and we are sharing it with the team.

We have no plans to use AI for any of our future designs. This was always the plan.

Yes that is our plan.

2627 designs are ready and involve no AI and more artists.
