Taking its inspiration from the best-selling Distortion, the Vanilla is the perfect choice for riders who want one board that can do absolutely anything you ask. No matter if you’re lapping the park, cruising around the resort or even hunting out powder stashes after a heavy snowfall, this is one board that takes it effortlessly in its stride. Built around a state of the art blunt-tipped diamond twin shape, the Vanilla delivers the perfect balance of freestyle feel and all-terrain versatility. The low swing weight tips deliver a well-balanced feel, so when you’re lapping the park, you’ll have all the feel and control you could ever need, but you’re not going to compromise the board’s performance in deeper snow and through crud, making the Vanilla a truly versatile ride. When it comes to the profile and sidecut, the Vanilla focuses on versatility. Combining a tighter sidecut radius than you’d typically find on this kind of board with the transform camber, which blends traditional camber zones with a flat central section, the Vanilla feels lively underfoot and is a bit of a revelation when carving around on the piste.

Rider Style: All Terrain

Intermediate to expert riders who are looking for a versatile board that won’t hold them back in any type of terrain or conditions.

Shape Overview: All Terrain Twin

With its versatile directional-twin shape, the Vanilla is the perfect choice for anyone that wants to ride anywhere and everywhere. Equally happy in the park as it is hitting backcountry tree runs or charging groomers, the Vanilla is, without doubt, a full quiver in one board.

Profile: Transform Camber

Sims’s Transform Camber is one of the most versatile camber profiles in the Sims range. Combining the best of both flat and traditional camber profiles, it delivers the secure edge hold of conventional camber with the loose flexibility of flat camber. This innovative profile delivers a lively, intuitive ride that feels free and controlled.

Construction

When it comes to construction, the Vanilla puts most boards at this price point to shame. Heading up the high-end built is the responsive Masters Core. Built utilising lightweight poplar with two tip-to-tail bamboo stringers running lengthwise through the centre, it delivers a smooth yet overall poppy feel. Sims then uses a 2-way layup that combines Light fibreglass at 0º and 90º. This creates a more progressive flex ideally suited to lighter riders. To add an extra level of pop through the length of the board, Sims add two tip-to-tail carbon stringers running either side of the insert pack close to the sidecut. These increase power through the length and improve both response and control on the edge.

Base: Premium Racing (High Molecular Sintered)

Utilising industry-leading technology from ISOSPORT, this high-density, high-speed base material is chosen for its molecular weight. This delivers unrivalled speed, excellent wear resistance, and increased wax permeability.
