Abstract
A snowboard () includes a central section () and tip and tail sections (). The snowboard includes a core () bordered within the central section along longitudinal edges by sidewall members (). The snowboard includes upper and lower reinforcement layers () covered by a top sheet () and a base (). The outer surfaces () of the sidewall members () are exposed between the top sheet and the base within the central section of the board. In the tip and tail section of the board, the sidewall members are absent, with a cap formed by the top sheet and upper reinforcement layer extending to cover the perimeter edge of the core and join to the base. The board thus has a fully exposed sidewall construction in the central section and a capped construction in the tip and tail sections.
