"The Merc is designed for riders looking to have fun on the mountain, and improve all aspects of the way they ride. The directional shape with only a 1cm difference between the nose and the tail gives the board great drive, but makes it easy to ride switch. It features: our Premium Sandwich construction made with advanced material like carbon for added durability and improved shock absorption; our Standard Camrock three-phase camber construction with more rocker in the nose and tail, traditional camber under the feet, and flat between the bindings for added pop and control; and our extra durable, responsive and lightweight Master Core, built with the perfect harmony of different wood types and densities for a superior weight-to-performance-to power ratio."
