DC Torstein Corruption Jacket

A true workhorse for all conditions, Torstein’s Corruption jacket has all the ingredients you need to stay warm, dry and comfortable no matter what the weather throws at you.

This relaxed-cut jacket takes its design cues from retro athletic wear and mixes a minimalist approch with heavy hitting tech. Fully taped Exotex 15K fabric will keep the snow and wind at bay while still allowing your sweat to wick through effectively, and there’s zonal Thinsulate insulation (80g body, 40g sleeves) for lightweight warmth where you need it.

Mesh-lined vents allow you to regulate temperature and the Corruption will seal you in sweetly thanks to its powder skirt, Lycra cuff gaiters and (if conditions demand it) the three-way adjustable hood. There are also plenty of pockets to stash all your essentials in, including a media pocket for your portable communicator/media device of choice.

Of course it’s got an articulated cut so you have the optimum snowboard-specific freedom of movement – be it pow slashes or poking your switch back 5s – plus Torstein got DC to use stretch fabric this year, too, for even better restriction-free shredding.

DC Torstein Media Blitz

The stick that carried Horgmo through all manner of mischief in his mindblowing part from this year’s Union movie, Stronger, you can be sure that the Media Blitz is built from the base up to send it hard.

This twin tip is certainly on the stiffer end of the spectrum – if you’ve ever seen the kind of riding Torstein subjects his boards to you’ll understand why – and so you’ll need to be confident in your riding to get the most from the Media Blitz. It gives out what you put in, but if you’re not on your game it could give you a whipping.

To paraphrase Torstein, two cambers are better than one so this has a Double Camber profile with camber under the bindings and rocker between them. In this way you get reliable response when you need it yet still the float and fun feeling of some reverse camber.

Internally, an Impact core comprised of FSC certified poplar and beech wood makes for a buttery flex blended with heavy durability along the edges. This is beefed up with carbon stringers for mega pop and wrapped in triax glass for surgical edge hold. And you won’t have to worry about flat spots as this comes with a Sintered supreme base.

If you’re a confident rider wanting to take your freestyle wherever you feel like, reach for the board with the “bleeding goth babe graphics”.
