Rene-Gade
The Rene-Gade is Rene Rinnekangas’ pro model built for mind-blowing freestyle antics and high-energy ripping. This Directional Twin features the unique Directional Triple Carbon Omega HotRods for high-speed stability and ollie power. Built with our SinterSpeed Base for high-octane riding and complemented with the predictable feel of Stay Positive Camber and Twin Flax Walls, this board is truly one of a kind.
Technology
Stay Positive Camber
Powerful and predictable; tried-and-true camber.
Directional Twin Shape
Directional Triple HotRod
Versatility, reactivity and all-terrain mobility.
Carbon Omega HotRod
Other-worldly response with our most powerful snap.
SinterSpeed Base
Our premium sintered base built for high performance and high-speed riding.
Twin Flax Walls
Twin Flax Walls are used in freestyle-oriented true twin boards to provide strength in the nose and tail, helping to load ollies and absorb deep landings at high speeds.
Flax Impact Plates
Flax Impact Plates are woven flax mats that are housed around the board’s insert packs, sandwiched between the core and top sheet. This horizontal layup works to withstand deep landings, distribute impact in variable conditions and increase the board’s overall lifespan without dramatically changing the board’s flex.

Rene-Gade Graphic Story
For Rene Rinnekangas’ pro model we wanted to create something special together. Rene’s grandmother was his biggest fan and he wanted to pay tribute to her with this graphic. He crafted a series of single-line drawings that we took and ran with to create the base graphic. Adding in the Finnish national flower, which was also his grandmothers favorite, was a nod to her and his roots. On the topsheet, we included the nickname she called him as a child, “Hellan Dura”, as a small misty detail, so that he can always ride with her.
