Barracuda 3D 140cm Exotic Woods

Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 4 customer ratings
(4 customer reviews)

An excellent board choice for coastal snowpacks and areas with shallow, dense or wind affected snow conditions. The Barracuda 3D 140cm Powsurfer cuts up the hot pow, slush and just about any soft-ish snow condition. Of course it kills it in the powder too and is a go-to pick for many steeper and bigger lines where you’re not sure what to expect from wind affect or avalanche debris.

The Barracuda comes exclusively with our  CDC 3-Dimensional Base for optimal control, floatation and snap. It’s heavy taper allows it to handle well in tricky snow conditions, but this can also lead to less planed out ride in deep and light snow, so scootch your feet forward and let her plane out! Or if you weigh 180lbs+ and ride often in deeper and lighter snow often you may consider the Slasher 140cm for a little more volume in the rear of the board for best floatation.

Description

The Barracuda 3D models are excellent boards for riding in coastal powder conditions where the snow can be heavy, wet and dense. They are also the best choice for handling shallow powder and variable conditions.

A long, drawn out nose cuts effortlessly through the snow maximizing speed and float while the set-back, short radius sidecut and slightly flared crescent tail give it tight turning ability and a forgiving ride in variable conditions and shallow or settled pow. Great for weaving tight trees, ripping steep lines, and navigating technical terrain. While it won’t have as “floaty” and “surfy” of a feel than models like the Powder Slut, Great White and Phish, this board can handle the less than ideal conditions better than any board in the line.

The CDC 3-Dimensional Base offeres the highest level of performance. Our 3-Dimensional Bases are specially designed to give the rider more precision board control and better performance in all conditions. The convex nose transitions smoothly into a double concave at the contact point of the rails, displacing and channeling snow to create better float, more speed, increased leverage to the rail and even better board feel. This enhanced interface between rider, board and snow makes a significant difference in the rider’s board control in every condition and especially when conditions are shallow or variable. More bite in your turns means better response to your movements, increasing agility and the ability to lay even deeper into your turns.

Recommended Width Sizing: “Standard” – US boot sizes: 9-13  /  Weight: 130-230 lbs . “Skinny” width –  US boot sizes 7-9  /  Weight: 100-200 lbs

    Rob Kingwill – February 21, 2020

    I’ve ridden tons and tons of different powsurfers over the years, and the Grassroots Barracuda 140 3D is my all time favorite! It fits my foot perfectly (size 8.5), allowing for easy turn initiation. The rocker is perfect for riding steeper lines and not feeling out of control. It is my go-to board for riding Second Turn on Teton Pass. Make one turn on this beauty and your life will change forever!

    My go to for steep tight trees or up to 10in spring snow. Works really well in variable conditions too.

    Aaron Desrochers – April 26, 2018

    Cuts through all types of snow, including windbuffed and inconsistent pow. When I’m itching to powsurf and conditions are not bottomless this is the board I reach for. Also works good in ideal powsurf conditions and turns just like a snowboard but not quite as floaty and fast in the really deep snow when compared to the Powderslut and Flying Carpet models. Here’s a small edit showing the 140cm Barracuda in action: https://youtu.be/Tx5Rsb049XQ

    Hi Jeremy,

    got my Barracuda last week and had to ride it instantly. Only problem: they are already selling icecream to shortsleeved people in the streets here. So we had do go pretty high to find some pow. That led to some very scary first turns. On rockcovered slopes. But it was so worth it. When you finally find the right position and link some turns – that feels so damn good. But whom do i tell that?

    That board is nearly too pretty to ride it
